Only 13 Months Left to Get #RevRecReady !
New Revenue Recognition standards (ASC 606 and IFRS 15) are mandated to be in place by January 1, 2018. Companies that haven't started projects are falling dangerously behind. In fact, it's now too late to start a custom revenue recognition solution from scratch.
In a recent article in Compliance Week, Thack Brown, general manager and global head of line of business finance at SAP, put it this way.

βIt takes approximately 18 months for the average Fortune 1000 company to make a change of this magnitude, and we just passed that point in the countdown to the mandatory effective date of the new standards, Corporate finance departments should act now to ensure that they are prepared for the transition and have the right tools to automate and simplify the process.β
That's why so many companies are turning to SAP Revenue Accounting and Reporting (RAR) to streamline their implementation and transition to the new standards.
