What is cash flow tracking?

Cash flow tracking answers a different question from a profit report: "how much cash will I have, on which day, over the next six weeks?" A profitable company can still hit a cash squeeze when collection and payment terms do not line up.

Which problem does it solve?

  • The projection lives in a spreadsheet and is updated by hand; in any week it is not updated, decisions lose their basis.
  • Estimates blend into actuals. When contracted and hoped-for collections share a line, the projection turns optimistic.
  • Real payment behaviour is ignored. A customer on 60-day terms who pays in 78 days on average shifts the projection by 18 days.

How it works

The system uses two layers. An actual layer: issued invoices, signed contracts and bank movements, whose due dates are known and calculated directly. An estimate layer: orders not yet invoiced, recurring costs and scenario items.

Reports keep the two layers visibly separate. When they blend, the projection stops driving decisions — the most common mistake in practice.

Collection dates can be adjusted by a delay profile built from each customer's payment history. That does not change contractual terms; it only makes the projection realistic.

Modules

  • Projection: weekly and monthly cash table with opening and closing balances.
  • Receivables: due dates, ageing, collection delay profile.
  • Payables: supplier payments, loan instalments, recurring costs.
  • Scenarios: optimistic/base/pessimistic comparison and single-item sensitivity.
  • Alerts: weeks falling below a defined balance threshold are flagged.

Integrations

Bank integration for statements and collection matching, ERP and accounting for invoices, orders and accounts, dealer portal order data, and e-document systems.

Usage scenarios

  • Manufacturing: managing the gap between material purchases and collections.
  • Dealer networks: consolidating collections on many different terms.
  • Project-based work: planning cash against a progress billing schedule.
  • Group companies: per-entity and consolidated projections.

Roll-out

  1. Data sources: which item comes from which system.
  2. Term rules: contractual terms, delay profiles, collection channels.
  3. Layer boundary: where actual ends and estimate begins.
  4. Alert thresholds: critical balance and reporting period.

Frequently asked questions

How far ahead can it project?

For contracted items the due dates are known, so the projection is calculated directly. The further out estimated items go, the greater the uncertainty, which is why the report also shows the estimated share for each week.

How is it different from a spreadsheet?

The data source is automatic, and the separation between actual and estimated is enforced by the system. A spreadsheet leaves both to the person maintaining it.

Why does it disagree with the profit report?

Profit is accrual-based, cash flow is collection-based. A sale on terms creates profit today and cash in 90 days.
