Life Before Intacct

Some processing in Salesforce– Opportunity “Summary” with Product line item detail reflected the potential sale – Custom fields for Contract Start/End by line item were used to reflect duration of the

subscription sale – More than 49 price lists were required to reflect combinations of currency and standard

discount levels – Salesforce mail merge routines were used to print order forms in 4 languages and per

legal entity (13 separate forms)

Orders, invoices and revenue management processed in other systems– AR customers and invoices were manually loaded into QuickBooks – Revenue Recognition schedules (majority spread over the 12 month contract period)

kept in spreadsheets

Resulting Issues:– AR customer records in QuickBooks often did not match Salesforce accounts -

Potential for error in Invoice information was high – Tracking recurring billing arrangements manual and prone to error – Revenue Recognition via spreadsheets prone to potential error – Sales had no visibility to Order/AR status of customers

Solution Search – What we Needed

Ingres needed an integrated solution to the order to cash problem:

The IT Strategy for sourcing solutions at Ingres is “On Demand” or “Open Source”

Salesforce was a natural choice for a CRM solution

We needed a Financials/Distribution application which met our requirements and integrated to Salesforce

We also wanted to assure an integrated solution for Professional Services Automation (PSA) - our next project

Ingres is a subscription based software and services company, requiring advanced order-to-cash processes

We specifically did not want to go with heavyweight applications from Oracle or SAP

Why we Selected Intacct

Intacct one of a few SaaS based solutions for Financials and Distribution

Intacct either already met all of our criteria or had a roadmap to getting there

Intacct provided integration to Salesforce and to OpenAir, a leading SaaS PSA solution

We liked what we heard from Intacct – in their personnel and management – and that they would be a good partner for us

We felt that we could help influence the direction of the product
