See how you can model short and long-term cash flow scenarios
This session is aimed at CFOs, treasury managers and financial controllers who need to model short and long term cashflow scenarios.
It provides a demonstration of Cashflow Planner for Manufacturing, a pre-built template model for balance sheet and cashflow planning, available from Zooss Consulting on the Anaplan Connected Planning platform.
The Cashflow Planner solution is most suitable for businesses that:
- Have large seasonal variations in cash inflows and outflows.
- Make or resell physical products, investing in fixed assets to do so.
- Need to report on long-term cash and balance-sheet metrics for bank covenants.
Key features:
- Plug in/upload your P&L forecast and key opening balances to automatically generate both a balance sheet forecast and cashflow plan.
- Manage your financing levers, like supplier/customer payment terms, short-term loans and asset hire purchase, to keep your business cash positive.
- ‘Direct’ method cashflow (eg ‘receipts from customers’) makes it far more useful than the ‘indirect’ approach (eg ‘movement in debtors’)
- Daily grain forecast for 5 years into the future helps you manage next week’s little dramas in the same place as you produce your bank covenant reports.
- Auto-balancing GL account level balance sheet forecast – with a full audit trail of the type of forecast movements on each account for every day of the year.
