NetCash Direct Cash Flow Statement

Overview

NetCash enables the generation of a Direct Cash Flow Statement for any account and reporting period. The Direct Cash Flow Report applies default mapping for cash transactions and supports user customization. Transactions are categorized into the appropriate Cash Flow Sections and Subsections based on the entity associated with each general ledger cash transaction. The following guide outlines the steps to configure this report.

Note: Transactions are included in the Direct Cash Flow Statement only after they have been matched in NetCash. Discrepancies between the Beginning and Ending Cash Balances are typically the result of unmatched transactions.

Step-by-Step Process

Navigate to NetCash > Reports > Direct Cash Flow to access the report.
On the Direct Cash Flow report page, select the appropriate Subsidiaries, Accounts, Departments, Classes, Entities, Locations, and Period to filter the individual transactions that will be included in the reported balances:

Note: The system will also apply filters based on any sourcing configured in NetCash for custom segments or lists (e.g., Activity Code and Fund, as shown in the screenshot below).

The report will update automatically once selections are made. By default, the report opens in Summarized View, which expands only to the vendor level. To access more detailed information, select Detailed View. This option allows each section to be expanded down to the transaction level for in-depth review. To switch views, click the view button at the top of the screen:

By default, the report is displayed in table format. To view the results as a graph, ensure the report is in Summarized View, then click the graph icon next to the table icon and select the preferred graph format:

Note: The graphs are interactive. Sections can be shown or hidden using the graph key, and individual components can be selected to display the underlying transaction details.

Also in a Summarized View, you can use the Trending dropdown to display trends based on either Month, Year, or Accounting Period:

When Trending is enabled, the graph view can still be accessed by clicking the graph icon. This displays an interactive line graph representing the trending data:
