FranConnect Royalty Manager

Manage the Entire Royalty Lifecycle in One Connected Workflow

Royalty Manager connects franchise agreement terms, reported sales, fee calculations, invoicing, payment collection, reconciliation and reporting. Finance teams get more than automation: they get a clearer view of revenue, exceptions and cash collection across the network.

The Challenge

Royalty Complexity Grows Faster Than the Finance Team

As a franchise system expands, fee structures multiply, agreements vary, sales arrive from different systems and invoice follow-up becomes harder to manage. Spreadsheet-based processes introduce calculation risk and make it difficult to see which invoices are outstanding or why.

Royalty Manager creates one governed process from source sales data through payment status, helping finance teams reduce manual effort and improve confidence in the numbers.

Royalty Lifecycle

From Agreement Terms to Cash Visibility

Import Sales

Bring sales data into Royalty Manager so calculations can begin from a consistent source instead of manually re-keying transaction data.

Agreement-Driven Calculations

Apply franchise agreement terms, royalty rates and configurable fees so calculations reflect the contractual structure of the system.

Automatic Invoicing

Create invoices after royalties are calculated and schedule delivery so billing happens consistently across the network.

Invoice-to-Pay Visibility

Track payment initiation and status when payments are enabled so finance teams can see what has been paid, what is pending and what requires attention.

Reconciliation

Connect calculations, invoices and payments in one workflow to reduce the effort of matching records across disconnected systems.

Royalty Reporting

Use dashboards and reporting to understand revenue, invoice status and payment trends at the unit and system level.

Agreement Data

Use the Agreement as the Source of Truth

Royalty calculations are only as reliable as the terms behind them. Royalty Manager connects financial obligations to franchise agreement data so finance teams can manage different royalty, ad fund, technology and other fee structures without rebuilding the logic in separate spreadsheets.

That reduces calculation error while making the process easier to audit and explain.
