Cash flow Statement in Dynamics 365 - Finance

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by BInnes 17

Hi. 

Does anyone have any experience in creating a cash flow statement. 

I may be missing something, but it seems to me that basing it on main account, it can only be an approximation as many of our accounts consist of both cash and non cash transactions for example fixed asset additions? At the best without this differentiation, it will be an approximation only and therefore not fit for purpose. 

Is there a method I am missing that involves flagging items at a transaction level?

Thanks

    Hello BInnes,

    Please have a look at the standard financial reports that MS ships with D365FO.

    Those reports include an indirect cash flow statement that builds upon your net profit in the operating cash flow section and adds depreciation and other non-cash transactions back to arrive at the operating cash flow.

    If you are interested in a direct cash flow statement then you need to design it yourself. I did that once with the help of electronic reporting, which is quite nice.

    Yet, making such a setup can easily get very tricky.

    Just think about things such as cash discount deductions during payments, payment reversals, expense vouchers that are split among multiple accounts, etc.

    Creating such as direct cash flow statement is possible but you have to take the required effort for the report design into account.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
