 Cash Discount Forecast

 

The analytical app displays the Key Performance Indicator (KPI) Cash Discount Forecast. You can forecast the available cash discounts in the short term. You can get a prediction over the discounted amount of blocked invoices on the next payment days. You can also find out about the reasons for the block and unblock the invoices by navigating to the transactional app Manage Payment Blocks.

Key Features

  • Display the cash discounts that are expiring in a future period that you have defined. The cash discounts are available on the key date but will expire by the end of the period.

  • Analyze the expiring cash discounts by company or payment terms. For each company or payment term, the app displays the expiring cash discounts, the available cash discounts on the key date, and the expired cash discounts before the key date. The available cash discounts on the key date refer to the cash discounts that are available from the key date to the future.

  • Analyze the expiring cash discounts by payment day. For each payment day, the app displays the cash discounts that are expiring between this payment day and the next. It also displays the cash discounts for invoices with payment block within this period.

    Note Note

    In order not to lose the cash discounts that are expiring between this period, pay for the invoices with these cash discounts on the current payment day. This is because if you pay for the invoices on the next payment day, the discounts will have already expired.
