Cash Flow Reporting Software for B2B SaaS

Report on cash flow alongside bookings, billings, revenue and ARR/MRR, all built from your contracts. Made for B2B SaaS finance teams on QuickBooks Online who are tired of rebuilding these numbers in spreadsheets.

What cash flow reporting means for a SaaS business

Cash flow reporting shows when money moves in and out of the business. For subscription companies, cash rarely matches revenue: customers prepay annual contracts, pay monthly, or renew mid-term. TrueRev keeps the contract, billing and revenue schedule in one record, so finance can see how bookings, billings and recognized revenue relate to each other.

How it works

From contract to cash flow report in four steps

Each report is built from the same contract record, so the numbers trace back to a deal.

1

Add the contract

Enter the contract in TrueRev or import the deal from HubSpot.

2

Set up billing

Create the billing schedule and invoices, working with QuickBooks Online.

3

Schedule the revenue

TrueRev builds revenue and deferred revenue schedules from the contract terms.

4

Report and share

Review bookings, billings, revenue, ARR/MRR and cash flow, and share reports with your team. Learn more about revenue recognition and deferred revenue.

Bookings, billings and revenue in one view

Bookings, billings and revenue are three different numbers. TrueRev tracks all three from the same contracts, so you can explain the gap between what was sold, what was invoiced and what was recognized. Deferred revenue shows what has been billed but not yet recognized.

Example

One $12,000 contract, two billing choices

Billing terms change what you invoice and what stays deferred, even when the contract and the revenue are the same. This is an illustration with straight-line recognition, not customer data.

MeasureBilled annually upfrontBilled monthly
Booking (contract value)$12,000$12,000
Billed in month 1$12,000$1,000
Revenue recognized in month 1$1,000$1,000
Deferred revenue at end of month 1$11,000$0
Billed by end of month 6$12,000$6,000
Revenue recognized by end of month 6$6,000$6,000
Deferred revenue at end of month 6$6,000$0

Cash arrives when invoices are paid, so payment timing is tracked separately from billing and revenue.

Built on your contract and revenue data

Reports start from the same contract data your revenue schedules use. Revenue schedules, deferred revenue and contract events sit together, so you are not rebuilding a separate spreadsheet each month to explain the numbers.

SaaS metrics for your board and investors

Track MRR, ARR, bookings, churn and cash flow from the same data. Use shared reports to give your team, board and advisors the same view of the numbers.

Works with QuickBooks Online

TrueRev connects to QuickBooks Online and works with your customers, invoices, chart of accounts and journal entries, so QuickBooks stays your accounting system. If your deals live in HubSpot, you can import them and turn them into TrueRev contracts.
