Quote-to-cash

From quote acceptance through scheduling, completion, invoice, and payment—one coherent operational chain.

Operational authority

Overview & thesis

Quote-to-cash is the end-to-end promise: what was sold becomes what was scheduled, completed, invoiced, and collected. Breaks in the chain usually come from mismatched objects (quote vs job vs asset vs invoice).

This hub aggregates platform surfaces and Dispatch resources that describe integrated quote-to-cash posture.

Core operational concepts

  • Work order

    A work order is the operational unit of field service work: what needs to be done, for which customer and asset, under what constraints, with a lifecycle from creation through completion and billing signals.

  • Recurring service revenue

    Recurring service revenue is predictable income from contracted inspections, PM, monitoring, or service plans—valued operationally when scopes, visit counts, and proof requirements match what the field can execute.

    /help-center/glossary/recurring-service-revenue

  • Payment processing (field service)

    Payment processing is how customers pay invoices or job balances—cards, ACH, portals, deposits—integrated (ideally) with work completion so finance reconciliation matches operational reality.
