"https://blog.isg-research.net/2016/08/09/salesforce-assimilates-demandware-but-will-it-help-them", "datePublished": "09/08/2016", "dateModified": "09/08/2016", "articleBody": "In July Salesforce officially closed on its purchase of digital commerce platform provider Demandware for US$2.8 billion. Salesforce’s executives were interested in acquiring a digital commerce platform, and they claim that Demandware was routinely mentioned in their due diligence of the market. So out came Marc Benioff’s and Salesforce checkbook, and they paid. Handsomely. For that sizeable investment, Salesforce will add Demandware’s SaaS-delivered digital commerce capabilities to its Customer Success Platform, while Demandware customers will have access to the Salesforce suite of cloud-based sales, marketing, customer service and analytics tools. But savvy business and IT customers are not getting distracted by the details of this transaction or the acquisition’s market impact. Knowledgeable executives expected a significant deal like this for Salesforce, and they were already thinking ahead of laggards who are just now assessing the implications of this transaction. Salesforce already was a major influencer in sales and marketing and advancing into supporting all forms of customer engagement, and the inclusion of Demandware’s offerings puts Salesforce that could challenge industry heavyweights such as IBM, Oracle and SAP in digital commerce. However, even with the acquisition, Salesforce does not offer a complete package for optimizing customer experiences in digital commerce environments. Providing omnichannel customer experiences requires an integrated product, marketing, sales, service, and billing with recurring support environment, which is much more than the Salesforce-Demandware combination supplies. Alliances will still play a prominent role in Salesforce-anchored offerings. Savvy professionals already knew that, and so, hopefully does Salesforce and its top competitors. Business leaders who have mapped the comprehensive technical environment they require to be able to deliver a superior customer experience know that even after they combine robust repositories of customer data, intelligence and analytics with creative digital storefronts and commerce clouds, critical components are still missing. For instance, among companies participating in ournext-generation customer engagement benchmark research, a majority said they expect substantial growth in online and mobile communication channels. That anticipated demand can’t be satisfied by the capabilities of conventional CRM systems and current customer-facing digital commerce technologies. In a recent analyst perspective on digital commerce, I noted that software for product information management (PIM) and customer billing and payment systems are two applications required in supporting a great customer experience and are lacking from Salesforce and Demandware. Any robust digital commerce environment also should include product life cycle management and location-based consumer intelligence. The Demandware acquisition also underscores the importance of having employees with the creativity and technical acumen to manage digital commerce environments. Simply put, a chief digital officer or someone with those responsibilities must be engaged in rolling out any comprehensive digital commerce solution. As I mentioned above, providing a solid customer experience through Web and mobile channels includes effective use of product information management and modern billing and payment systems. Marketers with only conventional skills are most likely ill-prepared to work with PIM and latest in mobile and location technologies for commerce. Moreover, IT staff can’t be expected to write engaging product descriptions or other content for omnichannel marketing campaigns. Indeed, neither most marketers nor IT staff possess the skill set needed to drive modern digital commerce initiatives. A chief digital officer and digital marketing team, however, should be able to do so as well as to identify both the technical and human resources needed to address the rapidly changing opportunities and demands presented by digital commerce. Savvy business professionals focused on commerce and digital innovation already had been looking at such plans before the Demandware acquisition was announced. Many of us with long experience in the software and CRM industry remember Salesforce’s insistence on “no software.” To this day, Salesforce’s home page asserts that the company offers the “#1 CRM Solution.” But to call Salesforce a CRM company is now becoming more accurate. By necessity it has grown into CRM; it has made the configure-price-quote and marketing automation technology segment through its acquisitions are just more applications on a product roadmap for integration. The Demandware purchase and acquisition of digital commerce technology are simply an incremental step in the evolution of Salesforce. Management’s sights are set on evolving it into a company that offers the end-to-end technologies needed to engage customers throughout the life cycle. That mission is so clear that even the not-so-savvy business professionals will soon catch on.

AI also has the potential to aid humanity in more modest ways such as eliminating the need for individuals to do tedious repetitive work in white-collar areas. Along these lines, at its recent Vision users conference, IBM displayed an application of its Watson cognitive computing technology designed to automate important aspects of regulatory and legal compliance. Should it prove workable, the application of cognitive computing to compliance could be the first step in achieving what various “Paperwork Reduction Act” legislation has failed to do: substantially cutting the time needed to comply with rules imposed by government entities. Regulatory compliance requires plenty of effort, especially in heavily regulated industries and especially during periods of rapid change in rules. Regulatory burdens on business in the United States have been increasing and growing more complex. For example, the number of pages added to the U.S. Federal Register, a rough measure of rule-making, grew 38 percent, from 529,223 pages in the 1980s to 730,176 in the 2000s, and that growth is on pace to reach 800,000 for the decade ending in 2019. Not all of these additions apply to a specific company’s business, and not all changes are relevant. But poring through pages of laws, rules and judicial rulings to identify relevant new requirements or changes to existing ones requires expertise and often considerable effort. Determining how to address regulatory changes and ensuring that these requirements are being met also entails knowledge and experience and consumes time. While necessary virtually none of all this work adds to the bottom line (except to the extent that it avoids fines or penalties) or improves a company’s competitiveness. In concept, cognitive computing is well suited to help manage compliance because it has the ability to continuously scan all sources of rule-making, identify those that may be relevant to an organization, and provide suggestions on how best to comply with rules and oversee the compliance program. It can improve the effectiveness of the compliance process by reducing the risk that a company will overlook regulations that apply to it or will implement a compliance program that does not adequately address requirements. In short, by using automation, cognitive computing can increase the efficiency with which a company addresses its compliance requirements. Our benchmark research on governance, risk and compliance (GRC) finds that this is important: Companies most often focus on GRC to contain overall risk and the risk of failure to comply with regulations (77% and 74%, respectively) and much less often to cut costs (31%). The primary steps any company faces in addressing regulatory compliance are identifying and understanding regulations that apply to it; determining how to address each of them; creating the appropriate measures and governance to achieve compliance; ensuring that the necessary documentation is created to confirm conformance; and guaranteeing that issues that arise are handled properly. Companies face challenges in doing this correctly and in a timely fashion. The process of interpreting the regulations and linking them to the appropriate controls is difficult and costly. Expertise is necessary, on the part of internal staff, external consultants or legal counsel. Historically companies have devolved responsibility for regulatory compliance to the individual business units most closely affected because it was the practical approach. However, decentralized approaches make it difficult to gauge overall compliance, and as the scope of regulation increases over time they lead to duplicate controls and increased costs of compliance. IBM Watson is potentially a good fit for managing regulatory compliance because it pools knowledge of a topic. As in the case of medicine, the collective efforts of all companies using Watson to assist in managing regulation help all of the participants. Because their combined learning processes are cumulative, Watson can build a knowledge base fast and absorb new facts and conditions quickly. It’s to all participants’ advantage to expand the capabilities of the system cooperatively. In both disciplines, learning involves mastering a technical language and syntax and being able to link their meaning to specific recommended actions. Watson’s approach to cognitive compliance starts by parsing the body of regulations in a fashion similar to the work it has done in consuming the scientific literature in the field of medicine. It then would identify all compliance requirements that may be relevant to a specific financial institution. The company would vet the list it produces to arrive at a list of validated compliance requirements. The cognitive compliance system would then use Watson to generate a recommended set of controls and procedures based on accepted practices (which may be rooted in anything from black-letter law to actions taken by similar companies). The user company would select those that it deems appropriate. These decisions would be made by trained individuals – for example, those with compliance responsibilities in a particular area, internal counsel or attorneys specializing in a relevant practice area. Once established, a cognitive compliance system could automate the process of monitoring regulatory actions and rule-making that is relevant to the company and flagging anything that requires review. IBM intends to focus Watson’s cognitive compliance efforts initially on the financial services sector. In part this is because the company already has a significant presence in this market segment, but the main reason is because in the United States the complexity of the rules governing this industry has mushroomed since the financial crisis of the past decade. For example, the so-called Volcker Rule, intended to prevent banks from engaging in speculations that put government deposit insurance and the financial system at risk, was spelled out in just 165 words in the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act. However, translating that concept into practice required the collaboration of five regulatory agencies: The Federal Reserve, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). It took about five years for this group to assemble a 71-page rule (not written in plain English) that has an 891-page preamble. As to cost of dealing with this complexity, in 2015, the OCC estimated that the cost of complying with Dodd-Frank for the seven largest U.S. banks in 2014 was US$400 million. In another example, 13 Europe-based banks spent between $100 million and $500 million each to achieve compliance with a rule requiring them to create umbrella legal structures for their local operations and take part in the Fed’s annual stress tests. To be sure, the current regulatory conditions affecting banks is an extreme example. However, for that reason it’s an attractive potential market. If applying cognitive computing to regulatory compliance works for financial services, there are likely to be many other industries in which the regulatory requirements are demanding enough to track and implement to make its use worthwhile. One intriguing possibility for the longer term is Watson’s potential to identify duplicate or conflicting regulations and laws and enable legislators and regulatory bodies to streamline or rationalize them. We recommend that financial services organizations and perhaps others look into this intriguing possibility.

To address these issues, organizations need to change how they use people and processes, and deploy innovative technologies that can support new initiatives. To provide an enterprise-wide solution, contact center systems fall into four categories: communications, business applications, analytics and self-service. Our benchmark research into next-generation contact center systems in the cloud shows which types of systems companies have deployed, which they plan to deploy in the next 24 months and whether they prefer them to be on-premises or cloud-based. Overall the research shows a preference for on-premises systems, with fewer than half (44%) of participants prefer to deploy systems on their own premises. However significant numbers are moving to the cloud with more than one-fourth (28%) using a private cloud, somewhat fewer (22%) using a public cloud and one-fifth (19%) using a hybrid combination of on-premises and cloud-based systems. Noting that 22 percent expressed no preference, we conclude that while cloud-based systems are considered a serious option, organizations are influenced by the number of on-premises systems they have in place and choose the deployment option for new systems based on factors such as capabilities, usability and cost, specific to each purchase. More detailed analysis shows variations across the four categories. Communications Systems The contact center market is mature, and the foundation of many centers is telephony systems such as call routing, ACD and IP-based telephony. However, the research shows that as customers demand other channels of engagement, companies plan to deploy more digital channels such as instant messaging, unified communication, text messaging, video and visual IVR. For these channels we find a shift away from on-premises systems, with companies preferring to deploy systems such as instant messaging, video and social media as cloud-based services. The findings lead us to conclude that most companies will continue to use on-premises systems already in place until they reach the end of life when they are likely to be replaced by cloud-based systems; in the short term these will be supplemented with new cloud-based systems. Business Applications The research shows that companies have deployed an array of business applications; the most common are call recording, business-specific applications and CRM, and the least common are workflow, social media integration and agent desktop systems. It also shows an intent to purchase systems to support specific business needs; the most commonly planned systems are workflow, social media integration and e-learning. The results show no clear pattern in which deployment options companies use. With the exception of internal business applications and CRM, there is a fairly even split between on-premises and cloud-based. We conclude that companies buy business applications on a case-by-case basis, which creates a bias toward on-premises systems because vendors in domains other than CRM have been slow in moving to the cloud. Analytics Overall, organizations said that among the four categories of systems analytics will have the greatest impact on customer experience, as companies seek comprehensive views of the customer and the ability to map customer journeys. However, the research shows that few companies are close to achieving either goal. The adoption of analytics is still relatively immature, primarily being systems that can analyze structured data: real-time contact center, agent and overall contact center performance analytics. It also reveals intentions to improve this situation, with overall levels of planned investments being higher than in the three other categories; the top priorities are social media, Web, speech and cross-channel analytics. In terms of deployment options, the results show that early adopters have tended toward on-premises systems, but the trend is to deploy more advanced systems capable of processing unstructured data in the cloud. Companies that don’t know their customers struggle to provide service that meets customer expectations. Cloud-based analytics systems provide opportunity for organizations of all sizes to gain more value from the totality of their customer-related data. Self-Service Systems For customer self-service the research shows a pattern of adoption similar to that for communications systems. Most companies have deployed conventional self-service systems such as Web-based FAQs, online customer service and touch-tone IVR on-premises. The adoption of digital systems is less common; few companies have deployed mobile customer-service apps, virtual voice-activated agents or visual IVR. As stated earlier this will change: About one-third of companies plan to deploy social media forums, stand-alone mobile apps, social customer service and mobile apps connected to the contact center. Once more the research shows that as companies adopt advanced digital systems they are equally or more likely to deploy them in the cloud. Overall the research finds many companies, especially very large ones, running on-premises, telephony-focused centers, predominantly supported by CRM systems. Because of consumer demand these companies are adding advanced digital channels but not always in an integrated manner, and it is increasingly likely they will do this using cloud-based systems. The cloud is also opening up the opportunity for smaller companies, or groups within larger companies, to create multichannel contact centers. In general, most companies have some way to go before they can provide omnichannel experiences – engagement across multiple channels that are managed using the same rules and data sources so that customers receive personalized, consistent responses on any channel. The research also shows more companies moving to cloud-based vendors that provide fully integrated systems. I expect this trend to continue and so recommend that companies wanting to transition to omnichannel engagement assess how cloud-based contact center vendors can help those efforts.

Our benchmark research into next-generation customer engagement finds that customers use up to 17 channels of engagement. Some channels involve assisted service from employees of the company, and some use self-service technologies such as interactive voice response (IVR), websites, mobile apps and social media, also known as digital service. Although the use of self-service is increasing, the research finds that organizations still expect volumes of assisted interactions to grow, albeit more slowly. The research also shows that the employees customers interact with may work in almost any line of business, including marketing, sales, the contact center, finance and human resources. These challenges require organizations to focus on people, processes, information and technology to optimize the performance of the workforce. To meet customer expectations during assisted interactions, companies must have the right number of skilled employees available, including cases in which the customer begins in a digital channel but switches to assisted service, and handle a number of functions: Route interactions to the employee most likely to satisfy a particular customer and situation. Build work schedules that match agents’ numbers and skills to expected volumes and types of interactions. To do that requires systems that are responsive and flexible enough to handle unexpected events such as sudden surges of interactions or employee illness and absences. Assess the performance of agents and other employees handing interactions, and determine future training and coaching for individual needs. Motivate employees to improve their performance. Give employees access to all information and systems that can help resolve issues, as often as possible at the first attempt. Enable employees to find and collaborate with others who can help resolve issues without having to call the customer back. Assess the overall performance of interaction handling to ensure it remains within operational guidelines while meeting business objectives, and plan process improvements to optimize the customer journey and the agent experience. To accomplish all these tasks, companies need to use a combination of systems, which collectively are known as workforce optimization. Our research into next-generation workforce optimization finds that the three types of systems most commonly in use are call recording (78%), quality management (70%) and workforce management (45%), although coaching (17%) and e-learning (15%) are the most likely to be deployed over the next two years. In each of these categories both conventional systems and newer, more capable ones are available. Regarding the most popular kind we note that companies have been recording calls for many years but that few use them to full advantage. Typically, companies listen to a small percentage of calls and use this to manually complete agent performance scorecards. More innovative organizations use speech analytics systems that enable them to utilize all calls, automate much of the agent performance assessment process and most importantly link this information with customer feedback. Such companies record all types of interactions and use multiple forms of analytics systems to create an even broader picture of agent performance and customer experience. Quality management systems are also mature but typically support a manual process of creating and filling out scorecards for different types of interactions. Here again more advanced systems use analytics to automate much of the process, including calculation of agent quality scores. Workforce management systems typically use historical data about interaction patterns to produce work schedules that optimize available resources and meet operational targets. More advanced systems monitor employee performance against those schedules and include capabilities to optimize short-term agent utilization, for example by filling idle time with training and coaching. Coaching and e-learning is a less mature category. Conventional products use the output from quality monitoring and analytics to identify coaching and training tasks, which can then be scheduled using workforce management. The most advanced systems can extract data from competed interactions to illustrate areas in need of improvement, or identify the performance of other employees who handle interactions using best practices. As well as these advances in core workforce optimization applications, there are a number of potential game changers. The first is analytics. As I have already highlighted, analytics is increasingly important to workforce optimization. Participants in our next-generation customer engagement research said it will have the greatest impact of any application on customer and employee satisfaction. Advanced speech and text analytics, used in combination with structured data analytics, can produce a comprehensive view of interaction handling, employee performance and customer satisfaction. It can spot trends and issues, and predict likely outcomes of future interactions. This information can be used to forecast future resource requirements, suggest process changes, identify training and coaching needs, and automate calculation of metrics focused on both customers and employees, such as first-contact-resolution rates across channels, customer effort scores, customer lifetime value and agent performance. These metrics can become an integral part of gamification techniques that track and reward agents for performance in day-to-day operations and for taking part in training, coaching and game-playing sessions to help hone skills. Technology integration is having an impact of workforce optimization. Nearly half (48%) of participants in our next-generation workforce optimization research said that it is important for these applications to be integrated. If they are, what have previously been stand-alone processes can flow across application boundaries: For example, customer feedback can link to quality monitoring, analytics can support information-driven processes in multiple applications, and e-learning sessions can be automatically inserted into agent schedules. Integration of applications also supports a closed-loop approach to workforce optimization that uses analytics to assess past performance, identify areas for improvement and monitor the impact of changes. Other innovations also are having impacts. Many vendors now support access to their systems from mobile devices so that employees can work away from their desk – for instance, supervisors walking the contact center floor – or home. Cloud computing opens up the opportunity for small and midsize companies to access capabilities similar to those designed for large enterprises. As I said, our research shows that assisted service has and will continue to play a key role in interacting with customers, and these people and processes must be managed. Increasing demands from customers, multiple channels of engagement, greater volumes of interactions and more complex interactions all increase the urgency of deploying the right number of skilled employees to deal with customers. I therefore recommend to organizations that rely on outdated systems, particularly spreadsheets, to manage those tasks evaluate how more advanced, analytics-driven systems can improve the performance of employees and consequently the customer experience.

Regarding the first, for some companies making large IT purchases, the way an enterprise employs CAPEX and OPEX accounting practices to categorize spending on technology may be a deal-breaker when coupled with the time and resources needed to implement and maintain a product. But these subjects are increasingly relegated to the 55-minute mark of conference calls that weigh the pros and cons of available technology. Because while few organizations make a platform purchase based solely on the cheapest price, astute IT buyers now discuss and invest in analytical, data-driven tools for sales, marketing and service, deployed across Web and mobile environments, that help produce differentiated customer experiences and strengthen personalized, real-time digital commerce offerings. That leads to the second key consideration: Improving the customer experience is the top driver for almost three-quarters (74%) of organizations participating in our next-generation customer engagement benchmark research. While differences exist in prices and delivery models among leading digital commerce providers, nearly all of them present themselves and their products in the same way. They claim that establishing a digital commerce presence is easy. Mix some customer data and match it with a little product information, some marketing and static digital assets, and online and mobile digital commerce storefronts begin to take shape. To a certain extent, that’s true. Possessing good customer data, some intelligence about buying patterns, knowledge of consumers’ preferred channels of interaction and the ability to analyze habitual behavior can facilitate quick creation and launch of a digital commerce environment. But it seems as if almost any digital commerce vendor can do what the next one can do. And it’s not just the content of their positioning statements that’s concerning but also the technology as well. Cookie-cutter tools are not likely to enable creation of a distinctive experience that lasts over time, and commoditized digital commerce products need a host of additional components to be able to deliver exceptional customer experiences. We advise organizations to take stock of their Web-based and mobile sales, marketing and customer service technology infrastructure, map their digital commerce business practices and budget for additional components required to produce consistently superior customer experiences. Start by creating a plan to make it easy for your customers to do business with you, no matter how they interact over any digital channel. This applies to both B2C and B2B environments. The first step in that process is to understand the context of every digital customer interaction. But while that may sound simple enough for today’s enterprise, what follows in the digital commerce planning process has taken on a new sense of urgency and economic importance. How an organization enables, supports and analyzes a customer’s economic activity, financial contributions and purchase patterns is critical. To compete effectively today you must monitor the economic health of every customer relationship and take corrective action when necessary. Further, examine whether your billing and payment systems are appropriately supporting your most loyal customers – those who engage in repetitive transactions, including subscriptions. They would be best served by billing and payment systems built on subscription-based and recurring revenue models that are designed to meet the ongoing commercial needs of consumers, regardless of their preferred channels of interaction. Look for dedicated technology suited to support in-depth billing and payment structures that thrive in digital commerce environments. They may not be easy to find; as my colleague Mark Smith has pointed out in discussing NetSuite and Salesforce, the largest providers of subscription software as a service (SaaS) don’t effectively manage billing, payment or recurring revenue processes. Billing and payment for digital commerce is an aspect of the customer experience essential to managing and monetizing relationships over time. Our benchmark research on recurring revenue finds that flexible invoicing, efficiency and accuracy are the most commonly cited benefits of dedicated billing systems. Keep in mind that the goal of digital commerce is for businesses and consumers to purchase products and services, not just click through a website. To succeed an organization must offer engaging presentations of products and services. This often is not the forte of digital commerce software providers, but addressing it is pivotal to supporting the effectiveness of digital commerce initiatives. In presenting multiple products to customers on the Web and on mobile devices it is necessary to give them access to consistent, accurate information about every product, regardless of the source or supplier. To strengthen their offerings in this area, some commerce vendors partner with product information management (PIM) providers. Our analysis of the role and effectiveness of PIM providers in supporting digital commerce in our 2015 Value Index on Product Information Management found many of them advancing to embed these capabilities; look for the latest evaluations of vendors in the upcoming 2016 Value Index. An organization’s goal should be to go beyond ordinary commoditized digital commerce tools. Successful digital commerce requires presenting customers with multiple products and services, aligned with the context of every interaction, through every digital channel, in a way that will be seen as both unintrusive and valuable. This leads to strong engagement that can result in purchases of products and services. In a digital commerce environment the customer experience, all the way through completing a transaction, must be seamless and designed to maintain and indeed strengthen relationships over time. This new generation of digital commerce technologies is radically different from earlier ones, and through well-architected infrastructures these tools can differentiate one’s brand and enable effective competition. This is what Mark Smith means by supercharging sales and commerce. The internal back-and-forth between IT and business units in evaluating products based on price and platform and the allocation of future resources has become ancillary to what the real conversation should be: about the value created by providing a great customer experience. Managing digital customer experiences over time to maintain relationships and grow new ones is possible only by going beyond outdated technology systems. This focus is at the core of my analyst agenda and upcoming research. Please follow me as I offer guidance to organizations seeking to uncover the business benefits of evaluating and implementing the next generation of digital commerce.

Although the future potential of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies has been debated, the distributed ledger structure using a blockchain database that supports bitcoin is likely to be adopted for a range of commercial and governmental purposes. Distributed ledgers are a secure and transparent way to digitally track the ownership of assets while enabling faster transaction speeds and reducing potential for fraud. How quickly companies, governments and individuals start using distributed ledgers and for what specific purposes remain to be seen, but their use will be independent of cryptocurrencies’ fortunes. Expansion in the use of distributed ledgers will depend heavily on the success of the initial applications and whether there are major hiccups in their use. To the extent that people have even heard of distributed ledgers, most associate the technology with bitcoin or some sort of payment system. However, it can do more than that. The technology can complement and enhance a variety of enterprise applications, facilitate commercial transactions of all types and provide governments with the ability to streamline interactions with the public. Here’s a summary of the technologies involved: A distributed ledger is a shared database of assets and their owners located on multiple nodes (sites) on a network. All nodes have an identical copy of the ledger, and any changes to the ledger are incorporated rapidly (at a maximum within minutes; ideally within seconds) in all copies. Distributed ledgers’ distinct value is their ability to securely identify ownership of any form of asset – physical, financial, legal or virtual – and faithfully record all transactions involving these assets. The security of the validity and dependability of the distributed ledger depend on several factors: its blockchain construction, decentralized ownership of identical copies of a ledger, the use of public key encryption of the entries in the database and the use of digital signatures for access control. An important advantage of it lies in moving much of the complexity of managing security onto the structure of the system itself, making such systems easier and less expensive to manage and use than conventional on-premises and cloud-based applications. Blockchain algorithms enable transactions to be aggregated in blocks that are added sequentially to a chain of existing blocks using a cryptographic signature. A transaction may be, for example, the sale and purchase of an asset or the addition of a health record or a patent filing. When someone wants to add to the database, each owner of the distributed ledger runs a set of algorithms to evaluate and then verify the proposed transaction. If a consensus (usually a majority of participants) agrees that the transaction looks valid – that is, the identifying information matches the blockchain’s history – then the new transaction will be approved and a new block added to the chain in that ledger. If the participants deciding on the validity of the transactions are preselected, the ledger is said to be “permissioned.” If the process is open to everyone (like bitcoin), the ledger is “unpermissioned.” The advantage of an unpermissioned ledger is that it evades control by authorities. This may be to achieve ethical objectives (for instance, overcoming censorship or theft by autocratic or kleptocratic governments) or for nefarious purposes (money laundering or trade in contraband). Permissioned ledgers can have an advantage if managed by actors (such as self-regulated commercial body or governments) that have the trust of the participants. Permissioned blockchains provide highly verifiable data sets because the consensus process creates a digital signature visible to all parties. The cryptographic signature using public key encryption can provide individual privacy while validating the identity of the individual making the change. Already in wide use public key encryption enables anyone to encrypt a message using the public key of the receiver, but such a message can be decrypted only with the receiver's private key. Public key encryption is often compared to a locked mail box with a mail slot. The mail slot is accessible to the public, and its location – the street address – is the public key. Anyone can drop a message through the slot, but only the individual who has the private key can open the mailbox and read the message. The blockchain structure provides a permanent audit trail since no records can be deleted without collusion on a massive scale. Distributed mirrored databases substantially reduce the ability of anyone to tamper with data since each instance would have to be altered in an identical fashion almost simultaneously. A cryptographic hash function provides a fast and highly efficient means of detecting if a blockchain has been tampered with and for assuring the integrity of transmitted data. That said, distributed ledgers are not invulnerable to attack. Anyone who can find a way to modify one copy legitimately might be able to modify all copies of the ledger. This will happen if systems can be compromised through, for example, phishing or pretexting. How a given distributed ledger is controlled can vary. Although the ledgers are distributed, there can be varying degrees of centralized control to suit the specific purpose of the ledger. Unpermissioned ledgers (such as bitcoin) are not owned by any individual or entity and anyone can contribute data to the ledger. At the other end of the spectrum, permissioned ledgers may have one or many owners and only they can determine who can add records and verify the contents of the ledger. In practice, the latter can only be considered a distributed ledger (in the definition I’m using) if the number of owners and their independence are sufficient to ensure that the possibility of successful collusion to alter the database is sufficiently low to achieve public confidence. I’ll leave it to others to decide for themselves if a distributed ledger organized and controlled solely by a single organization such as the financial network SWIFT should be regarded as a “true” distributed ledger. By my definition it is. It’s likely that some existing single-entity controlled networks (such as those that manage supply chains) will adopt the distributed ledger structure for all or part of their operations to provide new services or to modify their existing architecture to reduce costs, enhance performance or gain flexibility. There is no shortage of potential uses of distributed ledgers. There are so many that they – and the underlying blockchain methodology – can appear to be another example of a new technology in search of a mission. Distributed ledgers are not an application but a facility that can support application functions. They can, for example, record the basics of a transaction (such as the details of the item that has been exchanged and the corresponding payment) or serve to signal events (such as accepting a shipment). Distributed ledgers could serve as a secure platform for all forms of contracts; potentially they could make it easier to enforce contracts of all types in parts of the world where the rule of law is weak because the platform could ban all participants that renege. Distributed ledgers also could be used in settling securities trades of all types – this is more of an evolutionary improvement over today’s systems. In concept, a distributed ledger could cut reconciliation costs by more fully automating the trade settlement process and substantially improving the quality of data, as well as enabling financial institutions to make more efficient use of collateral and regulatory capital by limiting the volume of trades in limbo because they failed to settle. In commerce, distributed ledgers have the potential to substantially enhance visibility in multitier supply chains and multistep distribution, increase traceability of materials and combat drug counterfeiting. They can provide accurate and immediate customer records or immediately reflect changes to the properties in product life-cycle management and product information management. Networks for connecting members of a value chain have been difficult to establish because typically they have been set up by one of the major players. Competitors of that major player cannot (will not) participate in that network, blunting its effectiveness and leading to network fragmentation. Distributed ledgers might be less prone to this defect because they provide a secure, auditable mechanism for data capture and exchange that can complement but not replace the functionality of a value-added network. Companies therefore would be able to operate on different value-added networks that all use the same transaction data. In the public sector there are many ways in which governments can use distributed ledgers including property record-keeping, healthcare data, a digital notary system, recording government contracts and handling tax and other payments. Despite these potential uses it’s not clear how quickly distributed ledgers will gain traction and profitability in the commercial realm. In developed economies, there already are many trusted networks and methods for transacting business governed by commercial codes. Ultimately they may adopt a distributed ledger structure because it’s superior to the technology they are currently using in terms of speed and robustness. Some observers estimate that banks collectively could save billions of dollars in IT infrastructure costs by employing them for payments across borders, securities trading and regulatory compliance. Beyond savings, the desire to improve service or the threat of competition from an upstart will drive the process. There are many opportunities to create permissionless networks in less developed economies, but it may be difficult to make them more than marginally profitable initially until some combination is achieved of their networks becoming large enough and their costs getting small enough. Much work still needs to be done to make distributed ledgers a reality. One serious issue for distributed ledgers is the large amounts of computing (and electrical) power required to make them work. Another issue to be addressed is auditing. Accountants will need to be able to audit records on permissioned ledgers. Then, too, there is the matter of governance structures. This is less of an issue in largely free-market jurisdictions with solid rules of law. Rules established by the owners and participants of a ledger that safeguard their private interests must be supported by legislation and regulation consistent with existing commercial codes. In turn legislation and regulation must balance public and private interests without being so rigid as to stifle innovation and growth. For the time being, it’s not clear that distributed ledgers will displace trusted networks such as those offered by ERP vendors because it won’t have the functionality and process control that are part of those products. Those running trusted networks probably will not be in a hurry to open up their management to others since all have some value associated with being in charge. And the security issues that SWIFT has encountered (hackers managed to steal $US 81 million from Bangladesh’s central bank) would not have been prevented through the use of blockchain. It’s likely that there are scores of opportunities to create blockchain networks that are economically workable, but it’s not clear how soon these will become economically significant. I’ll leave it to others to comment on the future of cryptocurrencies. I’m fairly certain that their impact on the adoption of blockchain technology is neutral. All the attention that bitcoin and others have showered on blockchain is fully offset by entities that hold a negative view on cryptocurrencies because of their association with illegal commerce and theft. Nevertheless it is likely to have an impact someday, and software executives and information technology service providers would be well-advised to familiarize themselves with the technology and its potential.

Dave’s perspectives provide in-depth insights into what these products do, while I focus on how they help with business outcomes around customer experience. I was therefore intrigued to hear at SAS’s European analyst event that its products support four types of user – data scientist, business analyst, intelligence analyst and IT analyst. The presenter used simple quotes to illustrate the differing priorities of these groups: For the data scientist, the one that caught my eye was “I need the latest algorithms to solve the latest problems”; for the business analyst I picked “I need to get my report done quickly and easily”; the information analyst is about “identifying patterns of interest that can prompt active decision-making”; and the IT analyst is about “issue resolution and redemption” (mainly operational analysis). In short each type of user needs different products and capabilities, hence the array of products. Nearest to my research practice is the business analyst, who wants easy access to reports and analysis to resolve business issues, and this is where the company’s Customer Intelligence product plays a part. As I previously wrote this system has evolved into what SAS calls its Customer Decision Hub. It brings together a number of products so organizations can capture and synchronize all forms of customer data to “deliver the best customer experience.” The Decision Hub can gather customer data from a variety of sources and synchronize it for a customer. It provides rules to govern what happens to the data and how it is used, and reports, analysis and prompts so that employees can deliver information to users and customers in the most appropriate manner. It also includes an array of other capabilities such as information to drive marketing campaigns, data to support event-based interactions, customer journey maps and a 360-degree view of the customer. The latest version of the Decision Hub improves support and capabilities to better manage Web-based interactions, email, mobile and social media channels of interaction. The next step in its development is SAS Customer Intelligence 360. It is an enhanced version that has a single HTML5 user interface, additional public and RESTful APIs so that data can be collected from third parties, a single data and decision hub for all things related to customer experience and support for both inbound and outbound interactions across all channels. It is available as a multitenant cloud-based service, but data can reside on the user’s premises. Customer Intelligence 360 includes four components. Master Audience Profile supports collection and synchronization of all sources of customer data, both internal and third-party, to build customer profiles. Workflow and Collaboration support creation and development of marketing content across multiple groups. Intelligent Orchestration manages engagement across channels to ensure that customers receive consistent information and to harmonize marketing programs. Unified Measurement and Optimization helps analyze the outcomes of engagement and marketing programs to optimize them in the future. Together these components enable organizations to build complete pictures of their customers, ensure that business groups coordinate how they engage with customers regardless of purpose or channel, and analyze the outcomes to improve them. Some of these messages obscure what for me is an important feature – the single customer data hub. Our benchmark research consistently shows that organizations have a diverse set of customer-related data source: business applications such as billing, CRM, and ERP; communications systems such as voice, email, text, Web and chat scripts and social media; and operational systems such as network control that provide event-based data such as calls made, films downloaded or energy used. Managing all this data creates issues for organizations. Indeed, nearly two-thirds of organizations participating in our research into next-generation customer analytics said that the data they need as input into customer-related analytics is not readily available. The research also finds that users spend more of their time preparing and reviewing data than they do analyzing the outputs, which undermines productivity and impedes getting actionable information to decision-makers. SAS offers a combination of data management and analytics to overcome these issues. Buried inside the data management tools is another key capability – identity management. Our research into next-generation customer engagement shows that companies support an average of nearly seven communication channels, and each of these is likely supported by different systems. In such cases, each interaction record has its own unique customer identifier or combination of identifiers, which are difficult to standardize and use as one. To get close to producing a 360-degree view of a customer or a journey map of channels used, organizations need systems that link all these identifiers so the data can be associated with a single customer. The tools in SAS Customer Intelligence are among the few I have come across that do this; I recommend that companies looking for such analysis should carefully evaluate this product. I support Dave’s view that the SAS juggernaut is rolling on, and systems such as Customer Intelligence can help companies improve customer engagement. However, as organizations evaluate such products, I caution them not to get bogged down in all the components but to look at the overall system and how it can ingest and manage all the organization’s data and any from third-party sources; scrutinize how easy it is to use for all the different potential users. It is also worth remembering that the early focus for Customer Intelligence was to support marketing, and many of its messages are still colored by such thinking.

It’s important for companies that will be affected to be sure they have the appropriate systems, processes and training to handle the more difficult demands imposed by the new rules. With the change in accounting, the time lag between when a contract is signed and when a company recognizes revenue from it may be more variable and less predictable than in the past. In extreme cases, performance measured by financial accounting will diverge materially from the “real” economic performance of the organization. Consequently, executives – especially those leading publicly listed companies – will need the ability to look at their plans from both perspectives and be able to distinguish between the two in assessing their company’s performance. In companies where the timing of revenue recognition can diverge substantially from current methods, financial planning and analysis (FP&A) groups will need to be able plan using models that incorporate financial and managerial accounting methods in parallel. They will need to be able to identify actual-to-plan variances caused by differences in contract values booked in a period and differences between the expected and actual timing of revenue recognized from contracts signed in a period. I don’t want to overemphasize the impact the new revenue recognition rules will have on companies’ planning. While some companies need to understand that they will have to alter their planning and review processes, I expect that most will be unaffected by the new accounting for contracts, for at least one of three reasons: A majority of their revenue does not come from contracts. (Retailing is one industry in which many companies do not transact business using contracts.) No single contract or type of contract is large enough to have a material impact on reported revenue. The time lag between signing a contract and fulfilling the contract is short (a month or less) or the time lag between booking a contract and fulfilling it is reliably consistent from month to month or quarter to quarter. For many companies, tracking individual contracts will be unnecessary, impractical or both. It may be unnecessary because the relative size of contracts matters. Even if an organization’s individual contracts differ significantly in terms of the interval between signing it and recognizing revenue from the transaction, if there are enough of and even the largest represents an insignificant percentage of total revenue, the difference won’t matter. That is, in most cases the difference between expected and actual timing of revenue recognition of individual contracts is likely to be cancelled out. Moreover, tracking individual contracts will be impractical for many organizations because their volume will make it is too expensive and time-consuming to capture the relevant terms and conditions for each contract, which is necessary to be able to isolate the factors driving actual to forecast or budget variances. For FP&A groups the challenge will be in creating models that accurately forecast the average lag between contract signing and when revenue is recognized. Analysts also should confirm that the standard deviation of this lag under the new rules will be small enough to avoid the need to segment contracts into major types. (I’ll return to this point shortly.) Nonetheless, a significant number of organizations – either entire corporations or business units with revenue responsibility – will need to change their approaches to creating and using planning models in order to accurately measure variances between their plans or budgets and their actual results. This means developing models that enable them to separate variances that are the result of differences in when business was booked and those in which the timing of the revenue recognition process turned out to be longer or shorter than expected. Certain types of businesses that have large, complex contracts with their customers, such as aerospace, construction and engineering, are likely to find that they need to plan and track results by contract – at the very least the 20 percent of their contracts that account for 80 percent of their revenues. Another type of company or business unit that will need to adopt a more granular approach to tracking contracts under the new rules is one in which there are significant differences between the timing of revenue recognition for different types of contracts. Even though the value of individual contracts booked in a period is an insignificant percentage of the total, it may be necessary for organizations to segment contract bookings and revenue recognized for each major type of contract. This would be the case if there are significant differences in the timing of revenue between types of contracts and the mix of contract types varies from one month to the next. For example, imagine that Company X has contracts that have three distinct revenue recognition profiles. In one of them, which accounts for one-quarter of annual bookings, there is a consistent one-month interval between when the contract is signed and when revenue is recognized. For a second type of contract (representing 40 percent of annual bookings) it can take up to several months before revenue can be recognized, and then it happens all at once. The remaining contracts are recognized over a year after a contract is signed. Any significant differences in the mix of contract types signed from month to month will make it difficult to reconcile variances and accurately identify differences caused by better than expected or inadequate contract bookings and those caused by timing differences. So it’s necessary to create and use models that segment revenue by mix of contract types. It is time for companies to get serious about adapting their business to the new revenue recognition rules. They will have to cut over to new processes and systems in 2017 to comply with the new standards and be able to make year-on-year comparisons when the new methods go into effect in 2018. Financial planning and analysis groups should be considering whether their forecasting, planning, budgeting and reporting models and processes will need to change under the new accounting standards. Those that will have to change should look into acquiring a dedicated planning and budgeting application if they (or affected business units) are currently using spreadsheets for planning. That will include many organizations: Our next-generation business planning research finds that two-thirds (65%) of companies use spreadsheets to manage their budget process. A dedicated planning application will help them prepare better to understand whether a difference was due to the new accounting rules or poor performance using actual data rather than opinions. FP&A groups should be aware of their company’s exposure to new revenue recognition rules. If the rules will have a material impact on how the company accounts for contracts, they should determine whether it will be necessary to plan and budget for “real” and accounting data in parallel. If so, and if their company currently plans and budgets using desktop spreadsheets, I strongly recommend that they look into acquiring a dedicated planning application. In addition to dealing with increased complexity, this type of software can improve the budgeting and planning processes, making them more efficient.

But as distasteful as the subject matter of certain local events can be, some proceedings can inspire perspectives on a number of topics. One that occurs to me is how the retail industry can apply the new generation of mobile and location-based technologies not only to shape the customer experience but even rescue it from challenging situations. On Nov. 30, 2015, the Chicago Tribune reported that the Black Friday protests on the city’s Magnificent Mile cost local businesses 25 to 50 percent of their expected sales. While protestors have a constitutional right to free speech, business operators also had an opportunity and a responsibility – to proactively engage customers before, during and after the tumultuous Thanksgiving holiday weekend. As many of us will recall, the events that led up to the protests in Chicago on Friday, Nov. 27, 2015, were tragic. News was made when a dashboard camera video surfaced showing a Chicago police officer fatally shooting 17-year-old Laquan McDonald. As a result, the officer in question has been criminally charged and is awaiting trial. When the video was released, tensions permeated the city. Emotions ran high, and protests became a part of the city’s downtown landscape. But let’s be clear about that Black Friday on the Mag Mile in Chicago. Retailers and many other business owners in that high-end shopping district knew that protesters would take to the street that day in an attempt to halt commerce. Retail operators also knew that their customers would share that busy street. Nevertheless, I know of no business that chose to close in advance of the protests. Moreover, I’ve yet to learn of any business that made plans to protect their customers’ collective holiday shopping experience, let alone secure the revenue that might accompany it. In my opinion business operators on North Michigan Ave. failed their customers and stakeholders on that Black Friday. Media reports claimed that the Black Friday protests in Chicago were peaceful, and a festive atmosphere even accompanied one local television reporter’s account, as she proclaimed that the stores were open and people are shopping! But in a few hours, the consumer shopping experience dramatically changed. As seasonal rains came that evening, protestors systematically cut off street-level access to retail locations, leaving bitter customers out in the cold. Stores began to lock their front doors. Many, including globetrotting tourists, stood confused and abandoned. If retail operators had anticipated this scenario, they could have thrown a lifeline to marooned shoppers by developing a technology-assisted customer experience plan that could have rescued the situation and even saved a substantial loss in holiday sales. The retail industry’s keys to meeting the challenges presented by Chicago’s Black Friday protests should have consisted of five components: segmented and robust customer data; a strategy for mapping local consumer shopping territories via geo-fencing and real-time analytical insight into individual location information; two-way acceptance of mobile communications; a customer-centric technology infrastructure; and a consumer team that possessed the dedication and creativity to respond quickly to rapidly changing market conditions. As Black Friday events began to unfold, affected retail operators should have executed a communication plan that immediately addressed known local customers. Advisory communications could have been sent via email or text message to local residents, holiday shoppers or not. Those personalized messages could have been reinforced by notices posted to all available social media channels. Moreover, retailer operators in tune with their mobile customers could have reaped the benefits of acting on customer proximity and location analytics. Retailers with robust mobile customer relationships could have utilized geo-fencing technology and intelligent consumer apps to immediately interact with those who were inside the protest zone and in close proximity to one of their stores. Any interactive mobile customer who became locked inside or outside a store, or who was connected to a retailer equipped with beacon technology and a customer experience platform augmented with real-time location analytics, could have been guided down alternate paths to open and accessible locations, optional online services or even a secure personal refuge. For retail operators interested in the ability to quickly engage customers in the midst of any rapid change in local conditions or market dynamics, the overarching challenge has become threefold: securing a customer base that will opt in to mobile technology in advance of receiving real-time communications; employing talent that can creatively craft breakthrough notifications; and adopting a technology environment focused on making the most of opportunistic omnichannel customer experiences. Indeed, retail operators who proficiently use next-generation location-based and mobile solutions can make the most out of every individual interaction and stand to benefit from measured increases in sales, service, customer satisfaction, organizational alignment and competitiveness. Vibes Media is one technology provider of products for GPS-enabled, location-aware mobile devices that can access latitude and longitude coordinates near stores in order to trigger important notifications. Contextual marketing tools from Pitney Bowes allow marketers to deliver messages to customers at any time and place, across preferred channels of communication. Moreover, one can imagine how geodemographic segmentation offerings from ESRI could have been used to proactively beat competing Chicago retailers to the punch in the hotly contested local shopping arena. Our benchmark research on location analytics finds a variety of ways in which such systems can benefit businesses; improving the customer experience is the one most often cited (by 20% of participants). The pace at which retailers are using the new generation of interactive technologies to revolutionize the mobile customer experience must increase. The volatile situation in Chicago is far from over and may be replicated in other cities. It is only one example of what any retailer anywhere and its customers could face in the near future. Some mobile technology services have been designed to support customer loyalty initiatives, and they should be rolled out in the effort to generate sales and revenue, as well as being implemented in the service and support of customer communities. For retail operators who possess the imagination and initiative to employ the mobile technology required to adapt to unforeseen business situations, there are no limits to what they’ll be able to do for their customers and accomplish for their business, even under seemingly insurmountable stress. The revenue they’ll be able to source and the customer loyalty they’ll be able to report as a result of these efforts will be proud measures of industry success.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), which administers Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the U.S. (US-GAAP), has issued ASC 606, and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), which administers International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) used in most other countries, has issued IFRS 15. The two are very similar, and both will enforce fundamental changes in this area of accounting. Under the new approach to accounting for contracts, revenue (and some corresponding expense) is recognized only when customers are satisfied. In contrast, until now revenue was recognized when internally measurable events occurred, such as on delivery to the customer, the completion of milestones or the passage of time. In addition to dealing with an impact on accounting and planning, which I have discussed, companies may need to examine how the rules will affect how they account for commissions and other contract acquisition expenses. The new accounting rules will affect all companies that enter into contracts with customers. For some (maybe a majority), the change will be more of form than substance. For them, the change can be handled readily by ERP and other accounting software that has been designed specifically to handle the new requirements. For instance, ASC 606 and IFRS 15 spell out a more elaborate, multistep process for booking contract revenue, but as I have noted, companies that design their contracting processes to facilitate accounting for them and use an application that automates the steps in the process will be able to substantially eliminate what otherwise would be an administrative burden. On the other hand, the new accounting rules will have a significant impact on some corporations that use even moderately complex contracts in dealings with customers. They include, for example, contracts that are use tiered pricing or volume discounts, others that routinely involve modifications, such as adding or dropping services, or projects that require modifications in scope or term. Examples of the types of businesses most likely to be affected in this way include those in engineering and construction, ones that augment their products with recurring services as part of an ongoing relationship with customers (such as maintenance or consumable parts) and companies that offer subscription services that involve deliverables that can vary over time (such as units consumed or service levels). The new standards also may affect how companies account for commissions. The new rules require companies to capitalize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract (such as sales commissions) at inception if the contract’s duration exceeds one year. This deferred expense is then amortized over the term of the contract so as to better match specific expenses to related revenues. However, not all expenses can be capitalized. For instance, compensation paid to supervisors, even when tied to sales volume, is expensed in the period incurred. For contracts covering a year or less, companies will have to expense commissions immediately. It’s likely that auditors also will allow companies to immediately expense commissions and other contract acquisition costs even for contracts that extend beyond one year as an accounting policy election. However, this will be allowed only if a company applies this treatment consistently to all contracts with a term of one year or more and if the impact does not materially distort the financial statements. Some companies may elect to expense all sales commissions immediately to keep things simple. This is more likely if a large majority of business done with contracts is fulfilled in one year or less; if commissions and other contract acquisition costs are relatively small; or if the company is closely held. However, others – especially publicly listed companies – may decide that capitalizing sales expense provides a more accurate picture of their financial performance, especially if comparable companies take this approach to their accounting. Under these circumstances, I recommend using sales compensation management software to track sales commissions. This type of application already offers considerable value to sales organizations. For companies that will capitalize commissions, sales compensation management software is likely to reduce accounting and auditing workloads substantially for those that have used spreadsheets to do it. Our sales compensation management benchmark research finds that a large majority (71%) of companies use spreadsheets universally or regularly to manage their sales compensation process. Yet 61 percent of participants said that spreadsheets make it difficult to manage sales commissions, and nearly two-thirds (65%) said that the commission calculation process is too slow. Moreover, companies that capitalize sales expense and enter into even moderately complex contracts with customers are likely to find that using spreadsheets to manage sales compensation will multiply the workload of the accounting department. Under ASC 606 and IFRS 15, managing sales compensation in spreadsheets will increase the burden of accounting departments in several respects. Because spreadsheets are error-prone, accountants will need to check all of them to ensure that amounts and calculations are correct. Even assuming that the sales organization will attempt to be diligent in allocating commission and other direct contract acquisition costs appropriately between those that are to be capitalized and those that are to be expensed, accountants will still have to check the work to be certain that no mistakes were made. In the event that changes to a contract affect the commissions paid, ensuring that this information is captured accurately in a spreadsheet and in a fashion that facilitates accounting can be a challenge. Manually posting transaction data taken from a spreadsheet is time-consuming and almost guaranteed to contain errors that will require a reconciliation process to identify. Even if the accounting system has the ability to automate posting transactions using data contained in spreadsheets, checks and reconciliations may be necessary to ensure the process was handled accurately. Moreover, because spreadsheet-based systems are inherently less controlled, they require greater scrutiny by internal and external auditors. In contrast, sales compensation management software can prevent such issues from occurring. It can simplify tracking of the exact amount of commissions paid on contracts that extend past one year and reliably distinguish between amounts paid to supervisory personnel and commissions paid on contracts with a term of one year or less. The system can be programmed to capture all relevant characteristics of the transaction, automatically calculate commissions and incentive payments, and allocate amounts according to the required accounting treatment. In some companies, complications to accounting for commissions can arise when, say, area managers collect both direct sales commissions (which may be capitalized) and when they receive incentive compensation based on the performance of their direct reports (which must be expensed). Compensation management systems can easily keep these two types of payments separate. Complications can also arise if a contract is extended or modified in a way that will affect the amount and treatment of commission payments. Here also sales compensation management systems can track these changes in a way that facilitates accounting for them. Moreover, having a dedicated system makes it possible to fully automate the posting of all relevant information into the company’s accounting system on whatever schedule, form and format the accounting department prefers. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and ensures accuracy and timeliness. Facilitating the accounting for capitalized commissions under the new revenue recognition rules is just one reason why we recommend that companies evaluate sales compensation management software. Our research finds that 38 percent of those that use dedicated sales compensation software said they have significantly improved the outcomes of their sales activities and processes. Another 30 percent said they have improved them to some degree. A dedicated application also processes commissions faster and more accurately, which can help retain productive sales people: More than half (57%) of companies said they can handle them in less than a week. Another, more sophisticated benefit is that the sales force is aligned to business strategy and goals, which 43 percent ranked first, more than any other benefit of such software. Other benefits cited are better management and tracking of the progress of product and sales initiatives (by 30%), improved communications to Sales on the status of compensation (26%) and improved auditing and compliance of sales forecasts to goals and targets (25%). Among those planning to adopt dedicated sales compensation management. the highest-ranked expected benefits are to increase revenue and grow the business in terms of net new customers. We recommend that companies that use spreadsheets to manage sales compensation investigate the benefits of using a dedicated application. The potential impact of the new rules for recognizing revenue from contracts adds another reason why a dedicated application can improve the productivity and performance of both the sales and accounting organizations. As for corporations that already use sales compensation management software and will be affected by the new accounting rules, ensure that the systems are set up to facilitate handling accounting tasks in this new environment.
