What is a Cash Flow Dashboard?
Cash Flow dashboards provide live insights into your liquid assets and spending capacity. These financial instruments are essential for executives to distinguish between cash flow and revenue streams.
The distinction is necessary because income and expense timing often create discrepancies between reported revenue and available funds. With this tool, you can make informed decisions based on their financial liquidity rather than relying solely on revenue projections.
