Revenue recognition schedule list—Order Entry

A revenue recognition schedule shows you which periods of deferred revenue have been posted, which periods have yet to be posted, and when each posting is scheduled for a transaction line item.

By default, the Revenue recognition schedule list displays the Not started, In progress, On hold, and Partially terminated revenue recognition schedules. You can filter the list to display all statuses as desired.

From this list, you can edit or view existing revenue recognition schedules and export the current view.

This list supports the enhanced lists interface. Learn more about using enhanced lists.
