What is new at RevConnect this year? Aside from the global Aptitude Software team joining us for their first RevConnect experience, an exciting aspect to this year’s line-up of activities is our new training capabilities. Only at RevConnect on May 16 can users receive our new bootcamp style training.
RevConnect brings the finance world together to talk about what we live and breathe – Contract to Revenue Management!
Speakers will share their lessons learned from ASC 606 implementation (compliance and software) to thoughts on ways to modernize and use newly accessible data. Revenue management is not just an accounting function but a powerful business tool. For public companies who have begun reporting under ASC 606 and IFRS 15, we will discuss what’s next. For private companies, this is a great opportunity to learn from those who have taken the steps you are about to take.
What does life beyond ASC 606 look like?
In the words of Rajiv Chopra – RevStream founder, and now Aptitude Software CRO:
“I think the key message here is that 606 is a pretty massive global accounting change for companies, and they had to expend a lot of resources to get compliant. It will take some time for things to settle down. But then we need to look beyond compliance. Rev rec software tools like RevStream do a lot more than just compliance. You can really ingrain the data output as part of the revenue business operation…now that you can see all of your contracts and everything that’s been sold in a certain way – you have everything all together in one place. Now it’s time to start thinking a little bit more about the business process and operations optimization angle. Right now, there’s no other crazy compliance checkbox coming in, so let’s see what we can do better.”
