To review cash flow

If you haven't already read the Month-end Procedures Overview, see Reviewing cash flow for more information.

The Cash Flow Worksheet window should be displayed.

  1. Choose the bank account you want to analyse from the Bank Account list.
  2. Enter the number of days for which you want to analyse your cash needs in the Days To Look Ahead field. When you make your entry here, the list in the middle of the window will display all the transactions your company is due to perform during the time period you specified. Any transactions that are overdue also appear here.
  3. You can change any of the information that appears in the list to better estimate your cash flow needs.

Note: The Cash Flow Worksheet doesn't affect your company file

Changes, deletions and additions you make in the list are used for the purposes of the Cash Flow Worksheet window only. The changes you make here won't be reflected anywhere else in the MYOB system.

  1. Click the Analyse Cash Needs button at the bottom of the window.
  2. A new view of the Cash Flow Worksheet window appears, listing all the transactions that appeared in the previous list. Their corresponding amounts appear in the Amount column. The running balance of the account as it is affected by each transaction appears in the Cash Available column. You can simply view the information here if you like, or you can click the Print button to print a copy of the Cash Flow Analysis Report that contains the information displayed on your computer screen.
  3. Click the Return to Worksheet button and make more changes to the list of transactions, if you wish. Experiment with the two views of the window to make different forecasts of your account.
  4. Click Cancel.
