The following table describes the various fields of the consulting revenue edition dialog

Team member

The JIRA user associated with this consulting revenue. The same JIRA user can be associated with many different consulting revenues, each one potentially associated to a different rate and position title.

Title

The title that will be used to group consulting revenues together. While it is not required to reuse the same types as Budget and Actual, it can be useful for reporting purpose as many reports let you perform comparisons for selected types and titles.
While typing in this field, titles entered previously for other positions and consulting revenues that match what you typed will be suggested to you for completion to help you avoid typos and duplications.
Examples: Developer, Q&A, Management, etc.

Billable Ratio

The default proportion of the worked hours by the team member that are billable (and thus that should automatically be converted to revenue. For example, if the JIRA user associated with the consulting revenue has worked 100 hours to date on that folio's issues, and its billable ratio is 80%, then the calculated consulting revenue to date will be 80 hours x rate.

FromDate starting from which this consulting revenue becomes effective.
ToDate until which this consulting revenue remains effective.

Rate

The hourly amount of money this consulting revenue generates. The rate, along with worked hours and billable ratio, determine how much revenue it has generated at a given date.

Consulting revenue calculation

The Revenue page shows the calculated revenues to date for each consultant and consultant groups (by title).  The revenue of a consultant is calculated by multiplying her billable hours by her rate. 

Code Block
Consulting revenue(date) = Billable hours(date) x Rate

Note that the number of billable hours is determined by the number of worked hours associated with the consultant (as shown in the Team page) and the billable ratio of the consulting revenue. For instance, a consultant who worked 100 hours to date in a folio and has an 80% billable ratio will have 80 billable hours to date, by default. Billable hours can be overridden in the Details panel under billable hours by clicking on the number of hours calculated. Read the Billable Hours page for all the details about billable hours calculations.

Code Block
Billable hours(date) = Worked hours(date) x Billable ratio 

The revenue displayed on group title rows is simply the sum of the consulting revenues in that group.
