Purpose

In an age of global competition and value-oriented management strategies, financial planning plays an increasingly important role in the management of a company. The key aim is to recognize liquidity deficits or surpluses in time and to identify expected foreign currency positions in the planning period. Recording planning data on a timely basis and adapting it as soon as circumstances change, as well as decentralized processes for capturing data all contribute to the challenges facing financial planning activities that aim to indicate future trends.

The Liquidity Planner provides tools for entering and adjusting, aggregating and evaluating planned cash flows, and for determining actual values. Easy-to-use tools provide the decision-makers with all the information they need, as and when it is available. With this information, they have a clearer picture of the financial situation and can optimize the use of their financial resources. You can therefore use the Liquidity Planner to extend your planning horizon and have a greater active influence on the expected cash flows. This ranges from the classical use of financial budgeting values through to their inclusion in more detailed risk analyses.

Integration

SAP Liquidity Planner is a subcomponent of SAP Financial Supply Chain Management.

Features

In the Assignment topic you will find information about programs that you can use to assign functionally accurate liquidity items to actual payments.

In some cases you will find it useful to transfer certain amounts, without reference to a particular document, from one liquidity item to another. You can create, change or display these transfers from the application menu.

Queries are defined in Settings. These are the rules with which mechanisms derive liquidity items. These queries contain conditions for the values available for each mechanism and the liquidity item used if the condition defined in the query is met.

Under Information Systemyou will find information about the most important reports for the liquidity calculation.
