Subscription billing in our world is this:
Recurring invoicing (monthly, quarterly, annually) for a subscription,
renewable until the contract with customer is terminated (don't want this
process to stop until told to!) The process must also recognize the revenue
when the product ships, which may be different from when the invoice is
created.
That's it very simplified, there is actually a lot of calculations going on
based on product price, delivery frequency and billing frequency. We have a
home-grown system currently, and it does not have an order-entry or
otherwise manufacturing front end.
We met with JDE consultants many years ago about this need, and promptly
confused all of 'em! Must have been our presentation. Anyway, I'm sure that
the World product didn't have what we needed, so I'm hoping that there is a
possibility with OW.
Thanks! I appreciate any and all suggestions.
