But also to report the correct sales amounts on the profit and loss projection reports too.

The amounts are included on the projected profit and loss report in the month the customer is invoiced. But these amounts are included net of VAT (Sales Tax/GST). However, the amount should only be included on the cash flow projections in the month the amount is ‘projected‘ to be received from the customer.

5 reviews for Cash Forecaster: Cash Flow Forecasting Software

    Just what I needed, I had a cash forecast to prepare for my bank and this software got the job done very quickly and easily. For what I’d call a small investment you saved me hours, so thank you

    The cash forecaster software has saved me valuable time and has been incredibly useful in preparing detailed reports for both the bank and management information.
    Bowraven responded to my queries almost immediately and have made some amendments and issued an upgrade
    I highly recommend the software and the service

    Very pleased to have stumbled on this solution for cashflows – since the demise of sage’s winforecast we’ve made do with custom spreadsheets which always turn into a nightmare. This handled a quite complex budget very well and saved a lot of time (and at a fraction of the cost of a full software solution).

    I am sure that we will be using it a lot in the office when clients want forecasts.

    Many thanks

    Actually can’t rate this high enough!
    After sitting staring at self made spreadsheet projections, i was fighting to get balance sheets to balance, end of year stock correct, and vat and tax in the correct places. After a day of plugging numbers into this and a few basic sums, i have all the reports i could need and the ability to adjust and change as time passes.
    This software is a godsend to anyone needing to produce detailed business projections, and keeping a close eye on their business going forward. I shall be using it alot and I highly recommend it.

    I genuinely couldn’t recommend this software highly enough! We were able to use it to produce detailed financial forecasts for our new firms application for authorisation to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). A simply brilliant piece of kit. Buy yourself a copy!
