Formulas Required

The template uses dynamic formulas to ensure real-time updates and accurate tracking: - Net Change in Cash: `=SUM(OCF, ICF, FCF)` - Closing Cash Balance: `=Opening_Cash_Balance + Net_Change_in_Cash` - Operating Cash Flow (derived): `=(Accounts_Receivable_Change) + (Accounts_Payable_Change) + (Inventory_Change)` *(Note: Negative values indicate inflows; positive outflows)* - Cash Conversion Cycle: `=DSO + DIO - DPO` Where: - DSO = (Receivables / Revenue per day) - DIO = (Inventory / COGS per day) - DPO = (Payables / COGS per day)

Conditional Formatting

To enhance visual KPI monitoring, the following conditional formatting rules are applied: - Red text: If Net Change in Cash is negative. - Green background: If Operating Cash Flow Growth > 5% MoM. - Bold + Red: If CCC exceeds 45 days. - Data bars (in cash columns): Visualize magnitude of inflows/outflows across time.

User Instructions

1. Begin by selecting the correct month in the Monthly Data Entry sheet. 2. Enter values for each financial component (receivables, payables, CapEx, etc.). 3. The Main Cash Flow Statement (Tracking View} will auto-populate based on formulas from this data. 4. Review the KPI Dashboard to assess performance against targets. 5. Use the built-in charts to visualize trends and identify anomalies. 6. Save a new version each month or create a backup before overwriting previous data.
