Acquire
Pipe your customer and order data into Maxio via a CRM integration or allow your customers to purchase through your website or application. There are multiple ways you can acquire customers and get customer and order data into Maxio:
CRM integration: Maxio integrates with best-in-class CRMs, such as Salesforce, HubSpot, and Pipedrive.
API call: Maxio’s Advanced Billing module offers a robust API, meaning you can bill directly from your application.
Maxio UI: Create customer records and subscriptions within the Maxio Advanced Billing user interface.
Self-service pages: Create customizable, branded sign-up pages for products or offers and enable your customers to self-service.
Invoice statuses
Maxio Advanced Billing invoices can be generated either automatically or manually. Invoices will fall into one of the following statuses:
Draft | Pending | Open | Processing | Paid | Voided | Canceled
Discounts
Credits
Collect Cash
Drive down DSO, extend cash runway, and mitigate your risk of non-payment with Maxio’s collections and dunning capabilities.
Within Maxio’s Advanced Billing module, there are three methods for invoice collection:
Automatic: Advanced Billing attempts to collect payment automatically from a payment method on file (credit card or ACH) when the invoice is issued.
Remittance: Advanced Billing does not attempt to automatically collect payment. Instead, your customer remits payment on the invoice, often in the form of a check or bank draft, in response to receiving the invoice.
Prepaid: Advanced Billing collects an initial prepayment which is used to fund a usage-based subscription. Further usage will pull from the prepayment balance until it reaches $0 and suspends, or auto-replenishes. The renewal invoice is marked as "automatic."
Report revenue
Ace your audit in record time and retire your rev rec spreadsheet for good with GAAP/IFRS-compliant revenue recognition, automated for you.
Maxio’s revenue recognition capabilities allow you to:
Apply recognition rules consistently Apply your revenue policy automatically, consistently, and accurately across your entire customer base.
Recognize revenue deviations Deal with revenue recognition caveats directly in Maxio. Easily modify revenue recognition schedules for individual customers, contracts, or transactions as needed.
Consolidate journal entries Maxio’s Advanced Revenue Summary report offers an aggregated view of recognizable revenue for all customers within a chosen period.
Close the books
Automatically generate journal entries at month’s end and squash reconciliation issues as they arise.
Maxio allows you to close the books faster by integrating bi-directionally with popular GLs and ERPs, such as QuickBooks and NetSuite. The key data objects that flow back and forth between Maxio and GLs/ERPs are customers, invoices, credits, refunds, items, and payments.
