Cash Flow Forecast Card Window

  • Article

Specifies cash flow forecasts to calculate the cash inflows and outflows of your business and to save the values as history. For example, you can set up the cash flow forecast for every week or every month.

Every cash flow forecast has its own cash flow forecast card. For each cash flow forecast, you must set up a card on which you enter basic information, such as the cash flow forecast number, discount possibilities, payment terms, manual expenses, and manual revenues.

General FastTab

The FastTab has the following key fields.

Field Description

No.

Specifies the number for your cash flow forecast. You can use one of the following methods:

  • If you have set up a default number series for the cash flow forecast in the Cash Flow Forecast No. Series field, press Enter to automatically fill in this field with the next number in the series.

  • If you have not set up a number series for the cash flow forecast, or if the number series has the Manual Nos. field selected, you can enter a number manually. The number identifies the cash flow forecast and is used when you register the forecasted values from the cash flow worksheet. You cannot fill in the other fields until you have entered a number in this field.

Consider Discount

Select to have the cash discounts assigned in entries and documents reflected in the cash flow forecast.

Consider Pmt. Disc. Tol. Date
