Cashflow integration of future payments

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 794

Hello,

I have the need to integrate future (long term) payments to a supplier into the cashflow, this payments may have taxes and also may need to be changed / adjusted. Even though I want it into the system for cashflow forecasting I want it to be neutral to everything else. That means I don't want it reflected into the accounting or to increase the suppliers balances, nor to affect the banks balance. I think my best options are: 

- General Journal entries: It does affect the accounting because it has to be posted, also if it needs to be adjusted I need to make a negative journal plus a new journal.

- Budget entry: It works quite fine and there is no need of posting, but taxes confuse me, I can add "tax group" but not "item tax", and if I configure the accounts to already have taxes the system doesn't calculate them like in General Journals. Also I'm not sure if budgets should be used for that. 

So I have doubts about what option should I choose or if I'm missing a better solution. If it helps I work under IFRS accounting and EU VAT taxes, also Invoices in my country are enumerated, dated, have legal implications and cannot be reversed or changed easily so it's a route I want to avoid. 

Thank you in advance

    Hello Arcadi,

    Why do you want to enter the data in D365?

    Based on what you write, I would expect that PowerBi might be better suited for generating this cash flow forecast report.

    With PowerBI you can extract the data from D365 and enrich them with additional data as you need.

    It also gives you more flexibility in adjusting / modifying dates and amounts.

    Have you thought about this alternative?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Ludwig,

    I appreciate your idea. I'm not sure PowerBi is the way we want to go, because the data (Amount + date + taxes) is already calculated in D365FO in custom tables where the user can modify it.

    Our ideal solution would be a button on those tables that automatizes the journal creation and updating, in some way that can be integrated with the Cashflow forecast functionality without affecting anything else.

    Thanks
