Customer Signs Contract for 1 year and pays you $120

March 31 May 15

• In this example the Customer signs a one year contract and you are paid up front for the entire year- a total of $120

• You are responsible only for one $12 payment to SFDC for the quarter the contract was signed

$120 paid up front * 10% referral= $12

Customer Signs contract for Q1

and pays you $30

Q2

$120

for total Q1 ACV

• The customer initially signs a contract for a term of one quarter. They then extend your service for another quarter and finally renew for an entire year.

• The opportunity is alive for one year after signing the initial contract. This means that any renewal contracts are paid in the quarter they are renewed.

• The payment is always attributed to the quarter the contract is signed.

• In this example, the contract is renewed for one year but the opportunity is only alive for 6 more months. You would pay SFDC only half of the contract value for the six months remaining in the live opportunity.
