From Quote to Recognized Revenue, One Connected Process
A quote becomes a customer approval, becomes an invoice, becomes recognized revenue - all in one system, without re-keying the deal at every stage.
What quote-to-cash in Fintra does
Quote-to-cash usually breaks into separate tools with separate data: a quote built in one place, approved somewhere else, re-entered as an invoice, and reconciled against revenue recognition as a fourth step. Fintra keeps the same deal record moving through every stage - quote, customer approval, invoice, and revenue recognition - so nothing is retyped and nothing drifts out of sync.
- Quote creation from your product catalog with pricing and terms
- Tokenized public e-approval portal for the customer to accept
- Automatic invoice generation from the approved quote
- Revenue recognition applied to the resulting contract per ASC 606

How it works
From quote to cash, one thread
- 1
Build the quote
Assemble products, pricing, and terms from your catalog into a customer-facing quote.
- 2
Send for approval
The customer reviews and approves through a tokenized public e-approval portal - no account needed on their end.
- 3
Invoice generates
An approved quote becomes an invoice automatically, carrying over every line item and term.
- 4
Revenue recognition applies
The resulting contract is evaluated under ASC 606 rules - straight-line, milestone, or point-in-time as appropriate.

Cash and revenue reconcile
Payment received, AR cleared, and revenue recognized all trace back to the same original quote.

Frequently asked questions
What does "quote-to-cash" mean?
It’s the full process from creating a sales quote through collecting and recognizing the resulting revenue: quote, customer approval, invoicing, payment, and revenue recognition. Fintra runs all of these stages against the same deal record instead of separate tools for each step.
How does the customer approve a quote?
Through a tokenized public e-approval portal - a secure, unauthenticated link the customer can open and approve without creating an account. The approval is timestamped and becomes the record that generates the invoice.
Does an approved quote automatically become an invoice?
Yes. Once a quote is approved, Fintra generates the corresponding invoice with the same line items, pricing, and terms, removing the re-keying step that usually happens between a sales tool and an accounting system.
How does revenue recognition connect to the quote?
The contract terms from the approved quote - subscription length, milestones, one-time versus recurring components - feed directly into the ASC 606 revenue recognition engine, so the recognition schedule reflects exactly what the customer agreed to.
