Tips & common mistakes
- Export the Cash Flow report monthly to build a historical record of your business's cash position.
- PDF is the safest format for sharing with external parties (lenders, investors, accountants) because it is read-only.
- Excel is useful if you need to perform additional calculations, create charts, or compare cash flow across multiple periods.
- If you are presenting the Cash Flow to lenders or investors, consider creating a summary version that highlights key metrics (operating cash flow, free cash flow).
