Updated over 2 months ago

Step 1: Start your consolidation

  1. Click on the cogwheel and go to Entities and consolidations.

  2. Select the Consolidation tab.

  3. Click Create consolidation.

  4. Give your consolidation a name and pick the entities you have access to in CashFlow.

Step 2: Manage scenarios

  • You can consolidate the main scenario and one alternative scenario (up to two total).

  • If a company doesn’t have a specific alternative scenario, choose its main scenario for the alternative slot.

  • Add or modify a scenario anytime by editing the consolidation in Entities and consolidations or by clicking the small edit icon next to a scenario name.

  • Scenarios used in a consolidation cannot be deleted from an individual company without removing them from the consolidation first.

Step 3: Ignore categories or accounts

  • Choose which categories or accounts to exclude.

  • Ignored categories won’t show in the consolidation tabs or its cashflow plan.

  • However, transactions from those categories still affect cash balances.

Step 4: Configure settings

  • Consolidation date range: Sets the time window for your data.

  • Data visualization: Defines your default display frequency (e.g. weekly, monthly), limited by the largest forecast frequency among your included entities.

  • Consolidation type: Determines how your category tree is displayed.

  • Currency: Choose the currency for the consolidated data.

💡 Tips

  • Naming your consolidation clearly helps everyone identify it quickly.

  • Keep scenarios consistent across entities if you want an apples-to-apples comparison.

  • Double-check ignored categories or accounts to ensure you’re still including any crucial balances.

FAQ ❓

How can I rename my consolidation?

Click the … (settings) button next to the consolidation in Entities and consolidations and select Edit consolidation. Update the name and save.

Can I compare multiple scenarios in the same view?

Yes. Switch between main and alternative scenarios in the cashflow plan. You can also compare them side-by-side within your dashboard or KPIs.

Why do I see fewer frequency options in the consolidated plan?

The minimum frequency available depends on each entity’s forecast frequency. If one entity only has a monthly view, that limits the consolidation to monthly or broader.
