How do you get P&L, Cash Flow and a management balance in Creatio without Excel?
Updated: · Grygoriy Synieok
How it works in Syntech Finance Center: P&L, EBITDA, Cash Flow, management balance, working capital
Finance Center provides P&L, Cash Flow and a management balance in Creatio. The report basis setting selects operational documents or the ledger for P&L and balance.
P&L formats are Standard, Contribution and Management; the ledger-based management format includes EBITDA and EBIT. Cash Flow uses the direct method on actual payments, split into operating, investing and financing activity, with opening and closing balances and burn rate.
The balance shows Assets = Liabilities + Equity, working capital and current ratio. Any difference is displayed as an integrity alarm. Reports filter by period, company, cost center and project, compare prior-period Δ% on P&L and Cash Flow, and export Excel/CSV.
