Cash Flow

Understand where your money goes — and what it means

Where the Budget page focuses on managing individual transactions and forecasting balances, the Cash Flow page steps back to reveal the bigger picture — how money flows through the organization over time, where it comes from, and where it goes. Day-to-day bookkeeping tells you what happened, but cash flow analysis tells you what it means.

This module provides a clear overview of your cash flow, based on either historical data or a forecasted budget. It calculates your burn rate, giving you valuable insight into how much you spend per day, month, and year.

In addition, the module includes practical visualizations, such as product versus project income, expenses, and monthly cash inflow and outflow. These insights help identify potential challenging periods, allowing you to proactively adjust your sales efforts and financial planning.

Financial Health at a Glance

Burn Rate & Runway

The page automatically calculates your burn rate based on expense patterns, giving you a clear answer to the most critical question for any business: how long can you sustain current operations? This metric updates in real time as your budget data changes.

Income & Expense Composition

Rather than treating all revenue or spending as a single number, the page breaks down both by category. This helps you understand which revenue streams are strongest, which cost categories dominate, and how these proportions shift over time.

Summary Metrics

Computed income, expense, and net cash flow totals displayed at a glance, providing an always-current financial health indicator.

Strategic Insights

Product vs. Project Analysis

For businesses that balance recurring product revenue with project-based income, this breakdown is essential. It reveals the mix between stable, predictable income and variable project work — helping you gauge financial stability and allocate resources accordingly.

Trend & Seasonality Detection

Monthly and cumulative cash flow views make it easy to spot seasonal patterns, growth trends, or emerging cash crunches. By seeing inflow and outflow side by side over extended periods, you can identify months that historically run tight and plan ahead.

Year-over-Year Comparison

Select multiple years to overlay and compare financial performance across periods. This is particularly valuable for tracking growth, measuring the impact of strategic decisions, and validating whether operational changes are producing the expected results.

Top Movers

Ranked tables of the largest income sources and expense items surface the transactions that matter most. Combined with expandable category drill-downs, this lets you quickly trace a high-level concern down to its root cause.

Analytics

Date Range & Active-Only Filter

Restrict all analysis to a specific period and optionally include only active transactions.

Fullscreen Panels

Every chart and table can be expanded to fullscreen for presentations or deeper inspection.

Persistent Preferences

View settings (date ranges, selected comparison years) are saved to the backend so your preferred view is always ready.
