Systems and methods of processing business related data arising from multiple revenue sources (e.g., sales, subscriptions, professional services, vendors, etc.). In some embodiments, the inventive system and methods enable a more flexible and efficient approach to identifying revenue source events (mediation), pricing those events (typically as part of a rating process), and subsequently leveraging those 'ratable events' in the billing and revenue recognition subsystems according to configurable rules and schedules. Data regarding those charges or other aspects of a ratable event may then be used and processed by multiple sub-systems that are part of operating a business; such sub-systems may include one or more of ERP, CRM, HCM, financial, accounting, taxation, or other business-related system or function.

System and method for implementing unified billing and unified rating operations

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for establishing a revenue arrangement mechanism for creating and handling revenue arrangements designed to allocate revenue according to accounting rules and procedures for managing revenue. These aspects of a revenue arrangement enable a business to more flexibly and accurately manage and recognize revenue in a manner that complies with applicable accounting regulations and rules. In some embodiments, the methods and systems may be implemented as part of a business data processing platform that is used in conjunction with ERP, eCommerce, and/or CRM data as part of a multi-tenant system for providing order management and order processing services to one or more businesses. Such a platform may also be responsible for accessing and processing revenue, profit, inventory, sales, and other data in order to generate financial metrics that characterize the business(es) and their operations.
