Further Information

Make sure the Company field mapping on the recognition settings for your source objects is populated with the same field that was previously specified in the Grouped By field mapping.

This is because the True-Up process now uses the Company field mapping instead of the Grouped By field mapping for grouping the recognition transactions it creates.

Deferred Revenue True-Up
Note:

If you are setting up the deferred revenue true-up process for the first time, see Enable Deferred Revenue True-Up.

Notice of Deprecated Features and Functionality

We are deprecating the following features and functionality.

Opportunity Product Mirror

The Opportunity Product Mirror object will be removed from Winter 25. This is because since Spring 2021 it has been possible to use Salesforce's Opportunity Product directly as a source object. If your org has customizations using the Opportunity Product Mirror object you must modify them to remove this dependency. Contact Certinia if you require assistance with this.

Forecast Revenue

The Forecast Revenue feature will be removed from Spring 2025. We recommend you migrate to recognition schedules and use the Revenue Scheduled By Period report (RM Report Templates folder) or build your own reports on recognition schedule data to gain insight into a company's future revenue position. Alternatively if Revenue Management is integrated with PSA, you can use PSA's Revenue Forecasting feature.
