I said on the session that "for 80% of the time… everything aligns": the dates when the contract starts and when the invoices get sent. Then there's the 20% that wants to prepay. They want an invoice today that represents a renewal four months out, and there isn't a quick button to generate that invoice early in HubSpot yet. The contract object carries contract effective date, billing override date and line item dates, plus new co-terming, proration and change order capability, and people use different words for different things in different systems. So when I ask why they can't just generate the invoice early and the system doesn't let them, I can't tell whether the business has been doing it wrong or the software is missing something. If you've had a customer who needs the invoice before your process expected it, what did you change? Hubsessed Office Hours: Unified Revenue View, October 15.
