Trying to use cashflow forecast, it obviously brings in information from suppliers and customer accounts, however doesn’t seem incorporate payroll. While our payroll does vary monthly it would be sensible if an average amount was brought in automatically and I could tweak up or down as required.

also doesn’t seem to bring in the recurring entries I have for bank transfers between accounts or dividend payments. 

I would also like to be able to put in rough estimates for income/expenses by project. 

Further, it doesn’t seem to predict the quarterly VAT payment, I appreciate that running the VAT return takes some time, but could this perhaps be run in the background while normal processing is in progress and the appropriate payment incorporated automatically the cashflow?

In a similar vein we are in construction so use CIS, so can forecast payment of this not be calculated monthly?

All in all I don’t feel the cashflow forecasting is particularly useful, but perhaps I’m missing something in the setup. 

any thoughts or suggestions welcome!
