Recognise a Specific Invoice

Use this process to recognise deferred revenue for a single invoice outside of the batch run — for example, to process a specific deferral schedule before the period is locked or to handle a one-off correction.

  1. Open the deferral schedule

    From the FNO dashboard, open Modules ▸ Subscription billing ▸ Revenue and expense deferrals, expand Deferral schedules, and click All deferral schedules. Locate and select the posted invoice, then click the deferral number (④) to open its schedule.

    Recognise a Specific Invoice — the All deferral schedules list with a posted invoice selected

  2. Initiate recognition

    Select the Line (⑤) and click Recognize in the toolbar below (⑥). Complete the following fields:

    • Cutoff date (⑦) — enter the last day of the month.
    • Description (⑧) — enter a description.
    • Override transaction date (⑨) — select Yes.
    • Transaction date (⑩) — enter the last day of the month.

    Recognise a Specific Invoice — the deferral schedule with a line selected and the Recognize button

    Click View preview (⑪) to confirm the lines to be recognised, then click Process (⑫) to post.
