The liquidity forecast shows liquidity movements in the subledger accounts. The information shown is in regard to expected payment flows.

The incoming and outgoing payments per open item from accounts receivable and payable form the basis of the liquidity forecast. Since planning and forecasting these payments is usually long term, the probability of payment being made on the planned day is less than the payment probability stated in the cash position.

The liquidity forecast integrates payments in and out from Financial Accounting (example: open items), Sales and Distribution (example: orders), and purchasing (example: purchase orders) to document medium- to long-term developments in liquidity.

The graphic below illustrates the integration of the liquidity forecast within the SAP System.
