How we transformed revenue recognition for greater efficiency and compliance
Enabled automated revenue recognition across multiple platforms, recovering ~$7M in unrecognized revenue while reducing manual reconciliation effort by 60% and strengthening audit compliance.
Challenge
The client faced material challenges in automating and managing their revenue recognition process, resulting in financial inaccuracies and compliance risks, including:
  • Unrecognized Revenue: Approximately $7M in revenue remained unrecognized across reporting periods, distorting financial reporting and impacting decision-making.
  • Recording Gaps: Revenue was inconsistently recorded across core systems (Shopify & NetSuite), creating reconciliation mismatches and audit concerns.
  • Limited Visibility: Finance teams lacked real-time insight into triggering transactions, delaying recognition of subscription renewals, adjustments, and customer orders.
  • Operational Inefficiency: Manual, error-prone reconciliation processes consumed significant time and resources, pulling teams away from value-added analysis.
Solution
Out team collaborated with client stakeholders to design and implement an automated, scalable reconciliation solution leveraging Shopify and NetSuite data.
