Enhancements to the Deferred Revenue Reporting Dashboard

Upgrade Steps

To upgrade this feature to Spring 2023, take the following action.

Upgrade Steps for this Feature
Action Further Information

Before upgrading your Engagement Analytics app, ensure that your time period records in PSA fully match your recognition periods in Revenue Management.

For example, you might have a revenue recognition period named 2023/001 with a start date of February 1, 2023 and an end date of February 28, 2023. In that case, you must also have a time period in PSA with the same name and start and end dates.

Before upgrading your Engagement Analytics app, ensure that your PS Cloud Core Analytics app contains the Revenue Forecast dataset. If the Revenue Forecast dataset is not available, the Deferred Revenue Reporting dashboard does not contain scheduled revenue. Creating an App from the PS Cloud Core Analytics Template
