Keeps total revenue complete without polluting the primary revenue categories.
How to interpret
If "Other" grows beyond a few percent of total revenue, split it into a named line for the board.
Calculation policy
How an AI agent should compute this KPI from messy company data. Free-text rules consumed at reasoning time — not a deterministic DSL. The most common ways to get this wrong are listed under Common miscomputations.
Inclusion rules
- Recognized revenue not classified as subscription, usage, or services — a deliberately small catch-all for minor or unusual revenue items.
Exclusion rules
- Any item large enough to deserve a named line — split it out rather than parking it here.
- Non-revenue items: interest income (finance.interest_income_expense), FX (finance.fx_gain_loss), and financing proceeds.
Required inputs
- An itemization of what currently sits in Other so it can be monitored.
Validation checks
- Other should stay within a few percent of total revenue; if it grows beyond that, split it into a named line for the board.
Common miscomputations
- Parking interest income, FX, or financing items in Other revenue.
- Letting Other become a material catch-all that hides the true revenue mix.
