Salesforce Ad-hoc Invoice Creation

Having your sales team work in a platform they're most comfortable in without having to learn other systems (especially billing) can be a key component to creating efficiencies within the organization. At Chargify, our native Salesforce integration is set out to solve the swivel-chair movement between CRM and billing for your customer-facing teams. Due to recent feedback from our customers, we are very excited to announce a brand new feature for our Salesforce integration! 

To better enable your sales team to sell specialized deals, we have now added the ability to create ad-hoc or one-time invoices from Salesforce. These one-time invoices can have custom line item pricing as well as unique invoice billing and shipping addresses for added flexibility. Any time an invoice is created in Salesforce, it will automatically be synced over to Chargify.

Finance Report Enhancement

Tracking your monthly performance in terms of total sales provides you and your team a pulse on your revenue flow that can help identify growth opportunities and trends. Chargify's Finance Report provides monthly totals of your Total Billed, Payments, and Expected Payments. It breaks down Total Billed into Sales, Discounts, Taxes, and Credits.
 
To more closely align with the data presented, we are excited to announce a modification to the report terminology. In both the UI and exports, the Revenue fields have been updated to Total Billed less Tax as the report measures sales performance based on billed amount.

HubSpot: New Subscription Details Link & Enhancements to Coupons and Setup Fees

Since the launch of our native HubSpot integration earlier this year, our beta users have provided valuable feedback leading to several updates over the past few weeks. Our latest enhancements are around Subscription record details and redesigning Coupon and Setup fees. 

You are now able to view Subscription Details in HubSpot and link from the Subscription details to the Subscription UI in Chargify from any Subscription record. In addition, Coupons and Setup Fees have also been redesigned, allowing for a more seamless workflow with HubSpot Quotes. Chargify custom fields are now selectable on HubSpot Deals and Contracts. 

We look forward to continuing to evolve our native integration to meet your business needs. If you are interested in this integration, please email us at support@chargify.com or contact your Chargify Customer Success Manager.

Transactions Page Available in Beta

The transactions page for relationship invoicing sites is now available in beta! Viewing and exporting transactional data is easier than ever using the intuitive and simple design. Chargify users are now able to see all invoices, payments, credits, and refunds in a single page with a variety of filter and column selection options.

The robust filtering options include customer, subscription, amount, date range, product, last four of credit card, and status. The page has a user-friendly design and offers the ability to customize columns to fit your specific needs. It also includes a separate tab for each transaction type (e.g. invoices) enabling users to focus on a specific subset of data. The page offers export of your transactional data including additional data attributes giving you the power to slice-and-dice data any way you’d like.

Interested in getting beta access? Please reach out to your Customer Success Manager or support@chargify.com.

Salesforce: Lead Generated from Trial Subscriptions

Your success as a company is heavily dependent on a strong and effective sales pipeline. Managing and capturing the most up-to-date information on your trialing subscribers can become difficult, oftentimes leading to misplaced or duplicated contact and account information. To help prevent these hiccups for your sales organization, we are excited to announce our latest enhancement to our Salesforce integration!

Your trialing subscription data from Chargify can seamlessly integrate with your Salesforce environment, allowing for your trial subscriptions to create or match to an existing lead in Salesforce. This will give your sales team the most up-to-date information on their prospects and existing customers currently on a trial subscription. 

Your sales team will quickly see new customer signups that have not converted to an active subscription. Additionally, once the Chargify subscription moves to an active state, the Salesforce lead will automatically convert to an Account/Contact record. This parody of information between Chargify and Salesforce can save dozens of hours for your team by eliminating manual data entry and the extra communication needed to keep everyone up to date on those customers in the pipeline.

Chargify's Salesforce Quoting

Giving your customers a seamless buying experience starts with your sales team having the right tools at their disposal, especially in a system they’re so natively used to: Salesforce. As we continue to make enhancements to our Salesforce integration, we are excited to announce that we have added the ability to create quotes with versioning inside a subscription preview. 

This will allow for your team to negotiate pricing with your customers. In addition, Manager and Customer approval settings are also available to allow no interruption to your existing workflows.

Salesforce: Populate Custom Fields in Subscription Wizard

Over the past several weeks we have made several enhancements to our native Salesforce integration thanks to feedback from our customers! As many of you have seen, we added the ability to activate all subscriptions on an opportunity record, upgrade/downgrade subscriptions via opportunities, and also extended Calendar Billing from Chargify into Salesforce allowing for the utmost flexibility in the way you manage and sell your subscriptions. 

Today we are excited to announce a new development with our integration by adding in custom fields to the Subscription Wizard. When creating a new subscription, you can update and/or edit your custom fields to provide additional data that is vital to your business and beneficial for your end customer to see. These custom fields provide an extra layer of information, beyond what is already provided in your product catalog.

Salesforce: Calendar Billing

The way you bill your customers is essential to running your business. Many of our customers today take advantage of Chargify's built-in Calendar Billing functionality, allowing them to choose the specific day of the month their subscribers should be billed on, not the day they signed up for your product and/or service. For example, you may want all of your customers' subscriptions to renew on the first of the month. 

The goal with our CRM integrations is to mirror your Chargify environment as much as possible to provide your teams a seamless experience to sell and manage subscriptions. Because of this, we are excited to announce that we have extended Calendar Billing to our native Salesforce integration. When creating a Subscription via the Subscription Wizard, you can configure the subscription to be Calendar Billed on the specific day of the month you choose. 

For more information on how Calendar Billing works, see our documentation here>

Importing of Cancelled Subscriptions

Having the continuity with your historical data for your customers in a single system makes your life easier by providing "the big picture" on your subscriber base. Because of this, we are excited to announce that we have hit another milestone on our product roadmap to import your historical data into Chargify. 

You now have the ability to import cancelled subscriptions. Importing cancelled subscriptions can be done either through the UI with a CSV or via the API. Once imported, you will be able to see all of the historic cancelled subscriptions on the Subscriptions Page (Billing > Subscriptions)

For more information on the minimum requirements for creating cancelled subscriptions, see our documentation here>
