Continuous Control

Control Quote-to-Cash from Salesforce to NetSuite

Struggling with Salesforce CPQ or ARM (RCA) not speaking directly to NetSuite? Continuous Control fixes that.

Continuous Control is a native application in both Salesforce and NetSuite that connects Salesforce selling to NetSuite invoicing and revenue — out of the box.

Finance-ready billing and revenue in NetSuite, out of the box...
No matter how Sales sells.

Continuous Control was purpose built to fix Quote-to-Cash. Translate Salesforce commercial activity into finance-correct NetSuite actions, so native invoicing and revenue recognition work reliably, even as contracts and pricing change over time. Launch new monetization models, structure creative deals, process orders and financial actions with ease.

As a revenue execution layer — embedded in Salesforce and NetSuite — Continuous Control works without custom code, integrations, or manual workarounds. Continuous Control is not a standalone CPQ, billing system, or middleware, it is a finance-aware execution layer that translates sales intent into precise NetSuite instructions as a native application within Salesforce.

Continuous Control

Control doesn’t just sync transactions. It governs execution.

The Problem

Bookings to Billings to Revenue Don't Match

Quote-to-Cash merges two different worlds CRM & ERP.

Salesforce is where selling happens.
NetSuite is where the financial truth lives.

Both systems work exactly as designed until customers upgrade, cancel, renew early, or change terms mid-cycle. Lifecycle changes lose financial context as they move from CRM to ERP. What starts as sales intent turns into manual fixes, billing corrections, revenue rework, and audit risk for Finance creating “the Messy Middle”.

What is The Messy Middle?

  • Deals change, but execution breaks
  • Sales intent loses financial context
  • Finance absorbs the fallout at close

The missing piece is governed execution between CRM & ERP.

The Solution

A Finance-Aware Execution Layer

Achieve the promise of Quote-to-Cash excellence so bookings, billings, and revenue can be traced without manual reconciliation or clean-up at close.

Continuous Control governs how commercial activity becomes financial execution so you can let your CRM & ERP do their jobs. Salesforce enables commercial agility. NetSuite remains the system of record for invoicing and revenue recognition.

  • Billing and revenue recognition work as designed
  • Fewer manual corrections at close
  • Lower audit risk from lifecycle changes
  • Finance trusts the numbers, even as deals change
How It Works

Extend Salesforce and NetSuite for finance-ready revenue execution.

Salesforce handles selling reality.

Salesforce can move fast without breaking NetSuite. Lifecycle changes work as expected, no manual clean-up, fewer escalations, fewer exceptions, more revenue in the door.

NetSuite handles financial reality.

Predictable invoicing and revenue outcomes—no surprises at close. Reduced revenue leakage, manual corrections, and audit risk, trust the numbers even as deals change.

Continuous Control preserves the context between them.

Productized, prebuilt lifecycle execution so amendments, renewals, proration, and revenue alignment work out of the box, in NetSuite.

With Continuous, finance stopped looking backward and became a true thought partner in driving growth.Keeping NetSuite at the center was critical. Continuous let us make NetSuite the source of truth and leverage it more fully.

Frequently Asked Questions

From Teams Simplifying Quote-to-Cash

Is Continuous Control a CPQ or billing system?

Continuous Control is not a standalone CPQ, billing system, or middleware, it is an embedded execution layer native to both Salesforce and NetSuite.
The execution layer is the part of a system that takes decisions, rules, or intent and instructs them reliably, at scale, in real time. This is the layer that does the work.
Continuous Control makes sure Salesforce deals show up correctly in NetSuite — without adding another billing system or building a custom integration.

What problem does Continuous Control solve?

Control's role is to govern what happens in between Salesforce and NetSuite, so lifecycle changes don’t break NetSuite native invoicing or rev rec.
Sales books the deal in Salesforce. NetSuite handles invoicing and revenue. Both systems work as designed, but changes to deals now seamlessly transition from Salesforce to NetSuite sales orders and invoices.
Upgrades, cancellations, and other mid-term changes no longer turn into manual work, audit risk, and revenue cleanup for Finance.

How long does it take to implement Continuous Control?

Continuous Control is a pre-built, productized execution layer designed to go live quickly. Native to both Salesforce and NetSuite execution logic pre-configured.
Most customers can implement Continuous Control in weeks, not months, depending on which edition they start with, the complexity of their current Salesforce and NetSuite configuration, and/or the lifecycle scenarios they want to support at launch.
Because Continuous Control uses standardized execution patterns rather than custom code or bespoke integrations, teams can start with their current revenue model and extend capabilities over time without re-implementation.

Who typically owns Continuous Control inside an organization?

Continuous Control is typically Ops-led with Finance accountability.
It removes execution burden from IT, eliminates manual cleanup for Finance, and provides shared visibility into execution health and outcomes.

Is Continuous Control only for complex or enterprise revenue models?

No. Continuous Control scales with complexity.
Teams can start with simple subscriptions and extend execution capabilities as revenue models evolve without replatforming or changing systems. Control Essentials, Enhanced, and Enterprise editions align execution depth to business complexity.
