Xactly Simplifies Accounting for Sales Commissions Under ASC 606/IFRS 15

SAN JOSE, Calif. – May 9, 2018 – Simplifying a company’s ability to account for commissions under ASC 606/IFRS 15, Xactly today announced expanded functionality for Xactly Commission Expense Accounting (CEA) powered by Obero. The automated solution ensures sales commission data integrity while enabling enterprises to easily adhere to the new accounting requirements with full capitalization and amortization; dynamic true-ups; and a streamlined reporting process.

Customers, including Sitecore, SPS Commerce, Jamf, and TraceLink have already selected Xactly CEA to manage their commission accounting needs.

“The new requirements introduced under ASC 606 and IFRS15 present an opportunity to produce a more accurate accounting that supports better business decisions, but not without the addition of substantial complexity to our revenue processes,” said Udit Tibrewal, Chief Accounting Officer at Sitecore. “Because it integrates seamlessly within our existing environment, Xactly CEA provides a secure system of record that streamlines our ability to ensure regulatory compliance and gives us confidence in the accuracy of the data that is used for all calculations and reports.”

The announcement comes less than three months following Xactly’s acquisition of Obero and further extends Xactly’s robust sales performance AI platform with a fully integrated solution that simplifies, automates, and ensures compliance to account for commissions under the new revenue recognition standard.

“As enterprises face increasingly complex regulatory requirements – both in the U.S. and internationally – it’s clear that manual solutions can’t adequately scale to meet those obligations,” said Christopher Cabrera, founder and CEO of Xactly. “Combining Xactly’s powerful commission calculation engine with Obero’s advanced accounting management, we are bringing to market the industry’s most comprehensive solution for managing commissions under the new revenue recognition standard.”
