Understanding Quote-to-Cash
In today’s business environment, companies are continuously implementing new strategies and revolutionizing the way they handle business with their clients. The term “Quote-to-Cash” is a process that begins with a quote made out to an interested customer and ends with revenue recognition. Every company carries out the Quote-to-cash process, however many of these processes are outdated and need major improvements if a company wants to flourish against competition and not fall behind. Currently, numerous organizations are still using disorganized legacy systems that include excel sheets and other non-integrated files. Even though business processes are being conducted, the customers lack the insight into what great benefits could occur from an intelligent Quote-to-Cash implementation with the right partner.

1 Product Selection and Configuration
Quote-to-Cash begins when an ideal combination of products and services is assembled or configured to satisfy customer requirements. Successfully navigating product configuration can be challenging depending on the complexity and the multitude of options that a company offers for their products and services. Skilled reps who have great experience at the company or industry may be able to navigate and bundle together the right overall product, but it can be really difficult for newer employees to do so as well without making errors.
The goal with a transformation is to empower all reps to be configuration experts. Organizations need an automatic and accurate way to guide reps to the right product without manager approval or help. If a customer is buying through an indirect channel, he or she should be able to easily find and select a product that can be configured to their desire as well.

When too many people need to weigh in on a quote and a company lacks a proper review process, quotes can be delayed and be filled with errors. This can leave a bad impression on the customer. Quoting needs to be processed with speed and accuracy in order for it proceed smoothly through the sales cycle towards closing.
