Amendments
Book an amendment order the same way you book the original. Continuous Control sends only the lines that changed. NetSuite adds them to the existing contract and adjusts revenue from the change date forward.
In February, Kingsbridge Digital adds 20 API units to its QuantumBit subscription, which ends in December. Revenue Cloud creates an amendment order. Here's what happens when QuantumBit books it.
Book the amendment
- Activate the amendment order in Revenue Cloud.
- Open it and click Book Order to NetSuite.
That's all you do. Continuous Control sees that Revenue Cloud marked the order as an amendment. On the Sync Runs tab, the run's type reads "Order Booking · Amendment".
What gets sent
Only lines whose amount changed are sent. Each one carries its prorated amount and its own dates. The February upsell to Kingsbridge carries eleven months of value, not twelve.
The amendment's billing schedules go too. Each is linked to the original schedule it changes. See Billing mirrors.
In NetSuite, the new RC Order is marked as an amendment. Each line keeps its Salesforce action, such as Add or Amend. That's how NetSuite tells the original sale from the change.
How the obligations change
NetSuite groups lines into performance obligations by contract and product.
- A change to an existing product joins that product's obligation. Booked moves by the amount of the change, and quantity goes up or down.
- A new product gets a new obligation.
Nothing is renumbered, and no history is lost.
How revenue adjusts
Months already posted stay as they are. NetSuite takes the new total, subtracts what's already recognized, and spreads the rest across the months still open. This follows ASC 606's rule for prospective changes. Past months never restate.
How reductions work
- A mid-month cancellation counts only the days the service was live in its last month. The schedule ends there.
- If the contract shrinks below what's already recognized, NetSuite posts one catch-down entry in the current open period. It debits Revenue and credits Deferred Revenue. You won't see a restatement or a run of negative months.
