2. Milestone Billing and Revenue Recognition

Quick Notes:


Customer-Voted Enhancement

For professional services industry or clients using Milestone based contracts.

Upon achieving a milestone, the associated billing event for invoicing and revenue recognition is enabled. This feature helps billing specialists and project accountants to streamline the invoicing and revenue recognition processes, eliminating the need for integrated milestone billing solutions.

Helps in progress tracking and greater control through clear identification and definition of milestones across financial and project planning. Improves the predictable cash flow throughout the project lifecycle.

A Milestone is a significant, single point-in-time event which:

  • May represent a contractual obligation with a client
  • May be used in project plans for scheduling purposes
  • May have associated deliverables
  • May be used in project plans for initiating invoicing and/or revenue recognition
  • Can’t incur costs directly
  • Has a status which easily tracks the completion progress
  • May require a review and approval before completion

NOTE: Oracle is planning to release additional capabilities in upcoming updates.
