Salesforce CPQ and Billing

 

After an order is placed under Salesforce CPQ, billing picks up the order and generates a record for an invoice, payment, and revenue. Salesforce Billing requires integration with Salesforce CPQ. The term CPQ stands for Configure, Price, and Quote. The CPQ is a sales tool for businesses to generate quotes for orders quickly with accuracy. It helps sales reps sell the right product combinations, controls discounting, and automates approvals.

Need for Salesforce Billing

 

RevGurus comes with a strong cloud ERP and Revenue Management background and we can help in the implementation of Salesforce CPQ and Billing focusing on end to end customer engagement that can be managed in Salesforce, whilst the internal financial system is managed in the ERP. When leveraging this platform, there’s one point of pricing doing the calculations, one continuous process for the transaction, then a seamless hand-off to Accounts Receivable and Reporting. This process eliminates a lot of the chaos of recalculation and duplication enabling faster data flows between points in the revenue lifecycle and you’re able to get down to proper execution.
