Cashflow forecast for simPRO businesses
You can see what cash you have got today by looking at the bank. Working out what cash you will have in six weeks, given the jobs in progress, the quotes about to land, the suppliers about to invoice, and the payroll run that will not move, is a different sport entirely.
Most simPRO businesses run cashflow off a spreadsheet that gets updated when someone has time. So usually never. So usually they find out about a cash crunch the week it hits.
How it works
VibeCFO connects simPRO to your accounting system and projects cash forward.
- Ask EVA "what does cash look like in 8 weeks?" Get a forecast with the assumptions laid out so you know what is driving it.
- Run scenarios in plain English. "What if our two biggest debtors pay 30 days late?" "What if we win the Carter job?" EVA reruns the forecast.
- Catch the crunches early. EVA flags weeks where projected cash drops below threshold so you can chase invoices, delay supplier payments, or call the bank before it is urgent.
Frequently asked questions
Can simPRO do a cashflow forecast?
simPRO shows you what's been quoted, what's in progress, and what's been invoiced, but it does not roll that into a forward cash forecast. VibeCFO does. EVA pulls active jobs, scheduled invoices, supplier commitments, payroll, and recurring outgoings to project cash 4, 8, or 12 weeks out.
How accurate is the forecast?
As accurate as your simPRO and accounting data. EVA tells you which assumptions matter most so you know where the risk is. Scenario it: 'what if our two biggest debtors pay 30 days late?'
Can I forecast by entity if I run multiple companies?
Yes. EVA forecasts per entity or consolidated across the group, and any two entities compare side by side. The consolidated reporting page covers the group view in full.
