Connect subscriptions
The symptoms A subscription change for a customer in your billing system can cause spurious movements in your MRR (caused by a subscription "overlap" or "gap"). For example: We have a customer with a €100 subscription, then a new subscription at €150 before the old subscription is cut off. In this case, we will have €250 of MRR over a short period instead of €150. To remedy this phenomenon, you can merge subscriptions in your Fincome account. The last active subscription will then becomeFew readersManage parent/child hierarchies
What is the parent / child relationship for? Some of your customers belong to the same group: a parent company and its subsidiaries, several legal entities of the same company, or distinct brands billed separately. In Fincome, you can link these entities by associating a parent customer with one or more child entities. Once the relationship is created, all calculations (MRR, ARR, churn, etc.) are performed at the parent customer level. You thus get a consolidated view of the grouFew readersInvoice gaps / overlaps
This article describes how the "Neutralization of billing period gaps and overlaps" setting works. You can change this setting on your dashboard in the Settings > Calculation options section. 1. Invoice gap An invoice gap corresponds to an interruption between two successive invoices of a subscription. This means that after an invoice expires, a period elapses with no active billing before a new invoice begins. This case typically occurs in annual SaaS when the customer renews their subscFew readersData exports from Fincome

Why does my MRR seem "abnormal"? In the vast majority of cases, an MRR that seems inconsistent is not due to a calculation error by Fincome, but to: incorrect billing data (dates, line type, amount, discount), a duplicate customer or subscription, or a specific configuration of the calculation options. The goal is therefore to methodically trace back to the source of the figure, before any correction.

Merging customers in Fincome lets you bring together several records representing the same company or the same customer account. This method is not limited to customers. Merging works the same way on the other objects in the Data section: products, plans and subscription items. The flow is identical, only the starting list changes. This article uses customers as its example: for another object, open the matching list and follow the same steps. This feature is particularly useful if: duplFew readersExclude a customer from calculations in Fincome
Can a customer be deleted from Fincome? It is not possible to permanently delete a customer from Fincome, because the platform keeps a complete data history to ensure the consistency of calculations and analyses. However, you can neutralize their impact on your metrics by bringing the amounts of their invoice lines down to zero. This amounts to indicating that this customer no longer generates recurring revenue or recognized revenue, without altering the overall history of your billiFew readersAdjust and correct invoice lines
Fincome gives you the ability to audit every billing line and adjust metrics according to special cases (VAT, discounts, canceled invoices, etc.), in order to build a tailor-made MRR. Correcting an invoice line lets you faithfully reflect reality: including a forgotten discount, correcting an inaccurate date or amount, or applying a retroactive reduction to a subscription. These adjustments ensure that your SaaS indicators (MRR, churn, expansion, contraction) remain accurate and up to date, thusFew readersManual edits in Fincome: how it works
