What it does

Catches revenue-recognition timing drift early instead of at close. Each day it checks recognized-vs-scheduled revenue per active contract and surfaces only the contracts that breach a materiality threshold, so the finance team can fix postings before they pile up.

When to use it

Use this between closes when you want a lightweight tripwire on recognition accuracy. It is ideal for teams with high contract volume where a single bad schedule can quietly distort the period.

How it works

  1. 1A daily schedule triggers the run.
  2. 2BigQuery returns each active contract's recognized amount and scheduled amount for the current period.
  3. 3A logic filter keeps only contracts where the variance exceeds the configured dollar or percent threshold.
  4. 4If nothing breaches, the run ends silently; otherwise OpenAI writes a short summary of each flagged contract and the suspected reason.
  5. 5The alert posts to the finance Slack channel with contract IDs and variance amounts.
