Cash Management Status Analysis and Cash Concentration
Introduction
Cash Management in mySAP Financials provides three basic functions:
• Quickly and reliably transfers all cash-relevant information from internal and external sources into the cash management system (inbound data)
• Performs analysis and reporting of current and future cash flows to help you make cash management decisions (analysis and decision)
• Communicates with banks and other business partners based on the results of the decision process (outbound data)
mySAP ERP Cash Management offers the following tools, designed to make cash flows clear:
- The cash position, which illustrates short-term movements in the bank accounts
- The liquidity forecast, which illustrates medium-term movements in subledger accounts too
The cash position shows how your bank accounts will move in the next few days. Meanwhile, the liquidity forecast illustrates liquidity changes in the subledger accounts. Functions are also supported which can be used to obtain relevant information on forecast payment flows. This information appears in the form of memo records in the cash position, or as planned items in the liquidity forecast.
