Cashforce

Start by wiring your data into Cashforce so the numbers move without you. Connect your ERP, bank portals, AR/AP systems, and inventory tools; map cash flow categories once, then schedule refreshes by day or hour. Define entities, calendars, and currencies, pick your FX source, and set consolidation rules. Train the predictive engine on historical settlements to build a baseline view of inflows and outflows by customer, supplier, and SKU. Lock in horizons (13-week, monthly, or custom), tag assumptions, and publish your first live plan in a few clicks.\n\nMove to a daily rhythm that keeps liquidity decisions grounded. Open your dashboard to see upcoming peaks and troughs by entity and currency, with quick drill-down to invoices, purchase orders, and payroll runs. Use variance panels to compare yesterday’s actuals with the plan, highlighting shifts in customer payment behavior or supplier terms. The platform surfaces the biggest working-capital levers—late payers, early disbursements, slow stock—and quantifies the impact of moving dates or adjusting amounts. Run what-if toggles (collect 5 days sooner, pay 7 days later, trim inventory) and watch the timeline update instantly.\n\nRefine the plan collaboratively, without spreadsheets flying around. Override a single line item or a whole category in a familiar grid, add notes to explain a change, assign owners for follow-up, and route updates for approval. Every edit is tracked with user, time, and rationale. Build alternate scenarios for best/mid/worst cases, then export to Excel or your BI tool if you need board-ready visuals. Schedule recurring reports—13-week rollforward, variance to prior plan, liquidity coverage—and send them to finance, procurement, and sales so everyone plans against the same cash view.\n\nHandle currencies and bank positions with precision. Set FX rules per entity, convert at spot or period rates, and monitor exposures and translation effects. Align forecasts with actual bank balances to catch data gaps fast. Use the look-ahead to right-size buffers, decide where to park surplus, and identify when to draw, sweep, or term out. Track covenant headroom ahead of quarter-end, create funding calendars, and trigger alerts when thresholds are close. As your processes mature, push insights beyond treasury—prioritize AR collections, negotiate supplier terms based on modeled impact, and time inventory buys to free trapped cash—all guided by the forecast you maintain in Cashforce.
