Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue Revenue
Subscription revenue is recognized over time and accounted for approximately 97% of our revenue in each of the three and nine month periods ended October 31, 2023 and 2022.

Performance Obligations

As of October 31, 2023, the amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for contracts greater than one year was $2.0 billion. Beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, we are including two immaterial international subsidiaries to our remaining performance obligations disclosure. We expect to recognize 58% of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations within the 12 months following October 31, 2023 in our condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Contract Balances

Contract assets represent amounts for which we have recognized revenue, pursuant to our revenue recognition policy, for contracts that have not yet been invoiced to our customers where there is a remaining performance obligation, typically for multi-year arrangements. Total contract assets were $19.4 million and $12.4 million as of October 31, 2023 and January 31, 2023. The change in contract assets reflects the difference in timing between our satisfaction of remaining performance obligations and our contractual right to bill our customers.

Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and include payments received in advance of performance under the contract. Such amounts are generally recognized as revenue over the contractual period. For the nine months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022 we recognized revenue of $1.1 billion and $951.2 million that was included in the corresponding contract liability balance at the beginning of the periods presented.

We receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. We record accounts receivable when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Payment terms on invoiced amounts are typically 30 days.
