How the Financial overview works on the Business page
Understand receivables, payables, inventory value, and working capital.
The Financial overview brings together money expected in, money owed out, stock value, and net working position. It helps you understand the wider business position beyond today’s sales and expenses.
What to check
- Receivables show invoice money expected from customers.
- Payables show supplier bill money still owed out.
- Inventory shows money tied up in stock.
- Working capital compares receivables and payables and shows stock tied up at cost.
- Open invoices lets you review customer money expected in.
- Open bills lets you review supplier money owed out.
- Open inventory lets you review stock records.
Useful tips
- This section is a business health view, not a daily cash-up.
- A business can have high sales but still have poor cash flow if customers have not paid.
- A business can have lots of stock but still be short of cash.
