How to set journals to IFRS or GAAP revenue recognition rules so that backdated revenue is recognised at time of invoice

For purposes of MRR (monthly recurring revenue) and Revenue Recognition, ScaleXP will recognise all revenue according to the associated service dates.  

Read more about revenue allocation rules here. 

IFRS / GAAP option:  If you wish to recognise back-dated revenue at the issue date, then select the IFRS / US GAAP report.  This will show all revenue earned for a service period prior to the issue date as being recognised at the invoice issue date. 

Revenue recognition option: If you wish to recognise back-dated revenue at the time service is provided, generating “negative” deferred revenue rather than using accrued revenue for this, select this opton. 

To change your option, contact support@scalexp.com

To view revenue recognised in this way, go to the Customers tab (top bar) and create a new report.  Select Type "IFRS."
