Does this sound familiar?

Multi-component contracts must be allocated across individual performance obligations

Contract modifications regularly result in complex recalculations

Project progress is calculated in Excel outside the ERP system

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities are managed separately

Ensuring audit traceability takes unnecessary time

Different legal entities work with different accounting logics

Forecasts and actual revenue often do not match

Complex contract scenarios often cannot be standardized within the ERP system

Every exception leads to manual workaround processes

Where revenue recognition becomes complex

In practice, contracts often differ significantly in terms of their structure, payment models and performance obligations. In addition, contract modifications, variable consideration and long-term projects add further complexity.

The real challenge is therefore not understanding IFRS 15, but applying it consistently across thousands of different contracts.

Envoria was developed specifically to address this challenge.

How Envoria supports the IFRS 15 process

Envoria supports the entire IFRS 15 process, from contract analysis to automated revenue recognition.

Every revenue accounting process starts with the contract. To ensure consistent downstream calculations, contract data must be complete, structured, and centrally managed.

With Envoria, you can:

  • Import contracts from ERP and upstream systems
  • Process different contract types consistently
  • Support multiple legal entities and accounting units
  • Manage contract data centrally

Your benefit:

A reliable data foundation for all subsequent IFRS 15 calculations.

Many contracts consist of multiple components with different revenue recognition dates, such as hardware, installation, software, maintenance, spare parts, and training.

With Envoria, you can:

  • Identify performance obligations
  • Structure multi-component contracts
  • Separate individual performance obligations
  • Document contract components transparently

Your benefit:

Even complex contract structures remain transparent and audit-ready.

Not every contract has a fixed price. Discounts, bonuses, and variable consideration must be included in the revenue recognition process.

With Envoria, you can:

  • Account for variable consideration
  • Include discounts, bonuses, and price reductions
  • Consider refunds and contract modifications
  • Determine transaction prices transparently and consistently

Your benefit:

All price-related contract elements are incorporated into revenue recognition in a transparent and traceable way.

Once the transaction price has been determined, it must be allocated correctly to each individual performance obligation.

With Envoria, you can:

  • Maintain Standalone Selling Prices (SSPs)
  • Perform automatic SSP allocations
  • Support different allocation approaches
  • Document every calculation step

Your benefit:

Consistent revenue allocation without manual spreadsheet calculations.

Depending on the contract type, revenue is recognized either at a point in time or over time using different measurement methods.

With Envoria, you can:

  • Recognize revenue Point in Time or Over Time
  • Measure progress using Cost-to-Cost, milestones, or time-based methods
  • Integrate externally or manually determined progress values
  • Automatically generate revenue postings

Your benefit:

From progress measurement to automated journal entries, the entire process remains consistent and fully traceable.

After revenue recognition, Envoria automatically provides all relevant outputs for reporting, forecasting, and financial close processes.

With Envoria, you can:

  • Generate Revenue Schedules and Journal Entries
  • Report Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
  • Create IFRS 15 reports and forecasts
  • Trace calculations through complete audit trails

Your benefit:

All results are available transparently, consistently, and audit-ready at any time.

Complex use cases? Our strength.

Most companies don't struggle with standard contracts. The real challenge begins where contracts become more complex. Envoria supports a wide range of advanced IFRS 15 scenarios, including:

Multi-Component Contracts

A single contract may contain multiple performance obligations with different revenue recognition patterns.

  • Identify performance obligations
  • Perform SSP-based allocation
  • Allocate revenue correctly

Project Contracts & Progress Measurement

For over-time performance obligations, Envoria supports multiple methods to measure progress.

  • Apply Cost-to-Cost
  • Use milestones or time-based methods
  • Integrate external progress values
  • Recognize revenue automatically

Contract Modifications

Contract changes often affect revenue allocation and accounting entries.

  • Consider contract amendments
  • Include price changes
  • Recalculate revenue schedules
  • Document changes transparently

Variable Consideration

Not every contract has a fixed transaction price.

  • Consider discounts
  • Account for bonuses and refunds
  • Evaluate variable consideration
  • Determine transaction prices transparently

Contract Assets & Contract Liabilities

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities are calculated and updated automatically.

  • Calculate values automatically

FAQ

Automating revenue accounting starts with a consistent and structured representation of all relevant contract data. Manual Excel processes and standard ERP functionality quickly reach their limits when dealing with multi-element contracts, project-based business, or variable consideration. Contract modifications often require extensive recalculations and significantly increase the effort needed for month-end and year-end closing.

With Envoria, organizations can automate the entire revenue accounting process, from contract import and calculation to revenue schedules, journal entries, and IFRS 15 reporting. This reduces manual effort, creates a reliable data foundation, and provides complete transparency across the entire contract lifecycle.

ERP systems are designed to handle standard financial accounting processes. However, when companies need to account for complex multi-element contracts, different revenue recognition methods, contract modifications, or multiple accounting standards, additional calculations outside the ERP are often required. This typically leads to Excel models, manual workarounds, and time-consuming reconciliation processes.

Envoria complements existing ERP systems with specialized revenue accounting software. Contract data is imported seamlessly, IFRS 15 calculations are performed automatically, and the resulting journal entries, reports, and financial data are generated in a transparent and audit-ready manner.

Under IFRS 15, contracts containing multiple performance obligations must first be separated into their individual components. The transaction price is then allocated to each obligation based on the Stand-alone Selling Prices (SSPs). Revenue is recognized according to the specific performance obligation, either Point in Time or Over Time, depending on the nature of the contract.

Envoria enables organizations to manage even highly complex multi-element contracts consistently. The software identifies performance obligations, supports SSP-based allocation, and automates revenue recognition according to the defined contract logic. Every calculation remains fully transparent, traceable, and audit-ready.

Contract modifications are among the most common challenges in revenue accounting. Price changes, change orders, additional services, and scope changes can all affect performance obligations, transaction prices, and revenue recognition. Without specialized software, these changes often result in manual recalculations and an increased risk of errors.

Envoria's revenue accounting software supports the structured processing of contract modifications and automatically reflects their impact throughout all relevant calculations. Revenue schedules, journal entries, and reports are updated consistently, ensuring every change remains transparent and fully traceable.

Once calculations are complete, Envoria automatically provides all relevant outputs for financial reporting, period-end closing, and audits. This includes revenue schedules at both contract and portfolio level, automatically generated journal entries, contract assets and contract liabilities, forecasts, and comprehensive IFRS 15 reports. All relevant information is available in a consistent format for month-end and year-end reporting.

In addition, Envoria provides complete traceability for every calculation through comprehensive audit trails. Organizations can analyze revenue development, project progress, and contract modifications transparently, making collaboration with finance teams and external auditors significantly more efficient.
