Description

Royalty management has historically been a tedious and error-prone process, involving multiple spreadsheets, complex calculations, and not a few headaches. But it’s no longer necessary to rely on messy, manual processes. Automated royalty management systems are affordable, reliable, and easy to implement. 

In this webinar we’ll look at exactly how they work, walking through real-world royalty processing scenarios. We’ll see how to use an automated system to record contract terms, process disparate sales files, perform calculations, and generate and transmit royalty statements, reports, and payment files. We’ll also review the implementation process and discuss best practices for a smooth and painless transition to automation.

Automation typically saves 90% of the time spent on royalty management, and most of the stress. In this webinar you'll see for yourself how it can work for your organization. Bring examples of your most complex royalty challenges, and we’ll discuss whether automation can resolve them for you, as well as how you can benefit from the special discounts that MetaComet Systems offers to ACP members.
