How can you see a cash gap before the account runs out of money?

How it works in Syntech Finance Center: payment calendar, cash gap, forecast balance, safety balance
The payment calendar forecasts daily cash balances from the remainder of approved and partially paid requests, planned payments and expected customer receipts. It shows the first cash gap, maximum deficit and amount due.
The default horizon is 30 days and is controlled by a filter. An optional safety balance flags days below it; overdue outflows land on day one, while overdue expected receipts are excluded.
Syntech Manufacturing Finance can warn about a cash gap when a purchase request is approved over a chosen horizon, defaulting to 30 days. This warning never blocks the request.
