Cash Flow Management Software - Quickbooks (2024)

Stay prepared by forecasting cash transactions over 30 and 90 days. Your data is imported and synced automatically for accurate cash flow analysis, without multiple spreadsheets.

• Look at your future cash flow using the 90-day cash flow planner.
• Run and export reports including profit and loss statements, and balance sheets.
• Share a summary of your cash flow projection data with your accountant.

The Cash Flow Planner is an interactive tool that forecasts cash flow, which is the in-and-out of your money over the next 90 days. It looks at your financial history to forecast future money in and money out events. You can also add and adjust future events to see how certain changes affect your cash flow without impacting your actual books.

You also have a Cash Flow Overview to get a picture of your cash flow position and take actions to improve it including:

• Money in – Overdue invoices, open invoices, quotes
• Money out – Overdue bills, open bills and other recurring expenses.

To view the Cash Flow Planner and Cash Flow Overview, go to the Cash Flow left menu item on your dashboard:

The Cash Flow Planner chart uses historical data from your bank accounts connected to QuickBooks Online to forecast future recurring income and expenses. This includes categorized and uncategorized transactions. You can also manually include data to forecast cash flow by adding events that may occur in the future.

The Cash Flow Planner chart does not include:

• Credit card transactions
• Transactions you’ve entered manually into QuickBooks
• Multi-currency enabled files

You can manually add events for potential income and expenses. For example, if you have a big sale coming up, add it as an event so it will be a part of the forecast.

Important: Events aren’t actual transactions and won’t affect your finances in QuickBooks.

2. Select Money in if the event is income, or Money out if it’s an expense.
3. Name the event and enter an amount, then select Continue.
4. Select the date when the event will occur.
5. When you’re done, select Save.

To edit or delete an event:

1. Select and open an event.
