Scenario 1Customer signs to one year contract
  • In this example the Customer signs a one year
    contract and you are paid up front for the entire
    year- a total of 120
  • You are responsible only for one 12 payment to
    SFDC for the quarter the contract was signed

    agrees to pay you on a monthly basis

    you will pay SFDC only one payment of 12 for the
    Quarter the deal was closed

Scenario 3Customer signs to one Quarter
contract w/ Quarterly Payments
  • The customer initially signs a contract for a
    term of one quarter. They then extend your
    service for another quarter and finally renew for
    an entire year.
  • The opportunity is alive for one year after
    signing the initial contract. This means that
    any renewal contracts are paid in the quarter
    they are renewed.
  • The payment is always attributed to the quarter
    the contract is signed.
  • In this example, the contract is renewed for one
    year but the opportunity is only alive for 6 more
    months. You would pay SFDC only half of the
    contract value for the six months remaining in
    the live opportunity.

Customer Signs new contract for One year starting
Q3 and pays you 120
Customer Signs new contract for Q2 and pays you

    example an email marketing application where you

    SFDC 10 of X for that quarter
  • Payments will always be made a quarterly basis
    for all customers who paid you during that
    quarter
