Enhancements to Royalty Manager: Compute Royalties & Improve Profitability

Written by FranConnect

Do you struggle with calculating consistent, error-free royalty collection for non-financial categories? Furthermore, do your franchisees challenge every invoice because they lack transparency?

Well, optimizing your royalty management process just got a little easier with our newly released enhancements, with powerful new upgrades that build upon our robust solution and will simplify your user experience.

 

Reporting: Royalty Manager Data by Brand

Introducing two new columns, namely, brand and franchise owner's name in the reports under Royalty Manager, provides the ability to view multi-brand data by brand. These columns (brand and owner's name) will also be available as filters within the reports.

Royalty Calculations: Maximum Discount Cap

Now your finance team can create discount categories and limit the discounts applied to the gross sales when calculating royalties owed by a franchisee.

Royalty Calculations: YTD Sales with Threshold

 

 

Better support your royalty revenue growth and bottom-line profits by enabling threshold capability on royalty calculations based on YTD sales.

Royalty Calculations: Non-Financial Category Based

New agreement rules support royalty calculations based on non-financial categories such as customer count, number of transactions, and agent count.

Royalty Manager provides a transparent and accurate financial picture of unit sales with full automation of financial processes from royalty and fee calculations, invoicing & collection processes, reporting across QuickBooks, POS, and to other financial management tools.

By having the franchisee's sales data flow through FranConnect’s system of record, which contains the royalty rules outlined in each signed franchise agreement, accurate royalty invoices are generated automatically and made accessible to franchisees.
