LT/ST reclassification processing logic
Run LT/ST Reclass in Zuora Revenue to create schedules for eligible transactions and, if needed, generate MJE directly from the UI
In the current open period, after the CA/CL position and balance of each revenue contract is determined by the netting process, the LT/ST reclassification process will calculate the long-term balance in the following way:
- Determine the long-term periods based on the LT_ACCT_MONTHS profile setting. The long-term periods start after the specified number of months and last until the end date.
- Review the billing waterfall to determine the billing amount that is scheduled for the long-term periods.
- Review the adjustment waterfall to determine the adjustment amount that is scheduled for the long-term periods. The adjustment amount is considered as the billed amount.
For example, the duration of a transaction line is 36 months, which starts from January 1, 2019 to 31 December, 2021. The current open period is March 2019. The LT_ACCT_MONTHS profile is set to 12. The Billed Amount is $3600 and the Carve Amount is $360.
The long-term periods start from 12 months after the current open period (April 2020) and will end in December 2021. The long-term periods contain 21 months. The long-term contractual amount can be calculated based on the following formula:
LT Contractual Amount = LT Month * Monthly Billing = 21 * 100 = $2100
Similarly, the adjustment amount is considered as the billed amount and calculated.
LT Adjustment Amount = LT Month * Adjustment = 21 * 10 = $210
Here are four scenarios to explain the LT/ST reclassification processing logic:
