Key advantages

Unit4 enables you to seamlessly integrate cash and liquidity planning with the rest of your consolidation and general finance processes – helping you maximise the value of the treasury function by reducing costs and improving transparency.

Beating the challenges of cash management

Unit4 Cash Flow Planning overcomes the many obstacles that can complicate and slow cash and liquidity planning:

  • Freeing the group finance team from unreliable spreadsheet-based solutions.
  • Enabling you to cope easily with cash planning across many countries.
  • Handling inputs from any number of ERP systems and banks.
  • Producing robust figures more quickly, to enable a swifter response, and maximizing the time for proper analysis of the issues and options.

Keeping you ahead of change

Our solution's flexibility and scalability mean it is easily adaptable for times of business change, such as mergers and acquisitions or business restructuring. Coping with multiple ERP and other source systems is no longer a problem – data input can be automated thanks to the import module's user-friendly, wizard-driven setup, which minimises the need for complex import mapping or specialist programming skills.

A simpler, more focused approach

Unit4 Cash Flow Planning gives finance and treasury teams instant control of the group's liquidity forecast, net cash position and currency exposure. It includes a cash report builder that is standardised but still very flexible, with user-friendly drag-and-drop functionality and automatic graph presentations. And users are freed from the need to make up their own routines and reports thanks to an in-built efficiency report, using clear graphics to quickly show open positions and currency risks.

A smarter, more streamlined solution

The powerful yet user-friendly import module, combined with standard import templates (such as SWIFT MT940) make it cost-effective to automate input of bank balances and other cash planning data. This minimises manual work and avoids the need for programming expertise or expensive technical consultants. Working with the numbers is just as straightforward, using a single-screen environment without any complex processes or menu options.

Giving you the full picture

Unit4 Cash Flow Planning will enable you to quickly get a better view and understanding of your cash flow.

  • Compare and analyse forecasts – actual and currency exposure.
  • Quickly find differences by month, week and day.
