Is recognized revenue on plan?
Compare recognized revenue with the approved plan at reporting dates that have already arrived. Future targets remain in the future.
A recipe turns questions into decisions.
First it agrees what the question means, then connects only the data it needs, and only then keeps a live answer.
- QuestionThe team agrees what it needs to know.
- Agreed definitionClarifies what counts, the expected level, and who decides.
- Data it needsOnly the minimum data needed to answer is connected.
- Live answerThe answer stays up to date.
- DecisionAct, stay the course, or wait.
What you'll do with the answer
The answer makes the next move clear—and is just as clear when the right move is to wait.
Keep the plan
Recognized revenue is meeting the approved plan at the dates already due.
Reforecast or investigate
Revenue has fallen behind the plan due so far, so FP&A needs to respond.
Wait for the reporting date
Future plan points remain future and do not count as missed revenue.
What Soltura needs
Connect the approved revenue plan with recognized revenue from Finance. Soltura compares only reporting dates that have already arrived.
A reporting group
Finance defines the business unit, product line, or other group that will be compared.
The approved plan
Each group has dated revenue targets in one reporting currency.
Recognized revenue
The finance system supplies the cumulative revenue recognized to date.
Dates already due
Only plan points whose date has passed enter the comparison.
After at least three reporting groups reach a due date with a complete plan and revenue record
Where it fits
A good fit when
- All included figures use one reporting currency.
- The finance system is the agreed source for recognized revenue.
- FP&A owns the recurring decision to reforecast, investigate, or keep the plan.
Choose another approach when
- You need a forecast of future revenue rather than progress against dates already due.
- The source contains bookings, billings, cash, or sales instead of recognized revenue.
- Currencies have not been converted in the finance system.
- You need ledger entries, customers, contracts, transactions, or raw amounts.
- The plan and its reporting dates are not agreed and versioned.
