Forecast liquidity for the coming weeks
Controlling creates liquidity forecasts to spot shortfalls early
Fits: Leaders & strategy · Finance & accounting
Shortfalls show up on the plan weeks in advance instead of on payday. You have time to postpone payments, chase receivables or talk to the bank.
Is this for you?
- Incoming payments fluctuate and large expenses fall on fixed dates.
- Account transactions, open items and fixed payment dates are available digitally.
- Liquidity planning is currently a spreadsheet that is rarely up to date.
First step today
Export the weekly incoming and outgoing payments for the last twelve months as totals, without names of customers or employees, and list the known large payments for the next three months. Have a 13-week forecast with a delay scenario calculated using the template below.
How to go about it
- Set the period, interval and warning threshold
- Gather payments and fixed dates
- Have the liquidity forecast calculated
- Compare with the account balance every week
- Use it for measures and talks with the bank
- Fine-tune monthly
