Oracle Revenue Management Cloud Functional Architecture Overview

The new accounting standard provides a new core principle for recognizing revenue: "Recognise revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services." It also outlines five logical steps to accomplish that as shown  below.

Oracle Revenue Management Cloud automates these revenue processing tasks thus minimizing manual interventions, and allowing organizations to comply efficiently and consistently with the ASC 606 and IFRS 15 core principle.
