01 — Dashboard

The Morning View, and a dashboard per reader

Eight KPI cards with traffic-light status, month-on-month change and twelve-month trends. Each reader can have a dashboard of their own, such as a CEO flash or a board view, built from the same figures.

02 — Profit & Loss

Multi-year P&L with prior year and LTM

Collapsible sections, margin rows and PY / Δ / Δ% columns. A part year shows its YTD with the last twelve months beside it. Line names and order follow the company's own layout. Every line traces back to the trial balance.

04 — Net Working Capital

Working capital against its normal level

Every working capital category opens to its GL accounts, per entity. Closing NWC stands against its twelve-month average, with cash at bank on the same chart. A year-over-year bridge shows which categories moved.

06 — AR & AP

08 — Departments

What each department earns, and what an hour costs

A scorecard per department, then its contribution after costs. Available hours run down through absence and unbilled time to the hours invoiced. Cost per capacity hour divided by utilisation gives the break-even rate; the margin per billed hour is what remains above it.

Departments view: internal hourly rates and the P&L by department

09 — Commercial

Who the revenue comes from, and what is already in the pipeline

Six tabs: overview, revenue history, retention, pipeline, all positions and exposure. Active clients, top-10 concentration and service-line mix by fiscal year. Net and gross revenue retention. The pipeline raw and probability-weighted, by stage and by month.

10 — Forecast

26 weeks of forward cash

A direct 26-week cash forecast. Collections come from open receivables and the weighted pipeline; payments from the cost drivers, the loan schedule, VAT and planned cash items. Every line opens to a row per client or supplier. Lowest closing cash and runway in weeks stand at the top.

Early Warnings

EBITDA against capacity

The months both pipeline and costs report, with revenue in layers: what the pipeline covers, what capacity could earn, and what is not yet in the pipeline. Costs come from the same drivers as the cash forecast.

EBITDA forecast: revenue from the pipeline held against capacity

Meridian is a fictional demo company. All figures are sample data.

11 — Projection & Statements

Projected P&L, balance sheet and cash flow

The drivers are measured from the company's own history: headcount, utilisation, rates and payment days. The Projection shows what six levers would change. The projected P&L, balance sheet and cash flow are computed per entity from the same drivers. Downside, Base and Upside switch the forecast views together.

Six Levers

Scenarios

12 — Budget

Budget against actual

A budget is the projection frozen for one year: the drivers and planned changes, plus levers of its own, locked as a version. Every close is measured against it, in the P&L, on the dashboard and on a page of its own, with the full-year outlook and the bridge from budget to actual EBITDA.

13 — Quality of Earnings

Adjusted EBITDA and the QoE bridge

Every adjustment with its category, rationale, source and account, rolled into a monthly bridge from reported to adjusted EBITDA, with the year to date. The calculation a buyer will make, made first.

14 — Transaction

From adjusted EBITDA to equity value

Six tabs, from the open issues to the buyer's model. The bridge runs from adjusted EBITDA through the entry multiple, net cash and working capital to equity value, each line signed by what it adds to or takes off the price. Working capital moves the price by its deviation from normal. Carve-outs show what a disputed or stale position would cost.

16 — Group Report

Several companies, one report

The group report shows the whole group as one company, and one click on an entity opens that entity’s own report. Figures are converted to the group currency at monthly rates, and the entity reports stay in their own. Intercompany revenue and costs are eliminated every month; where a balance does not net, the report names the missing account and how to book it.

17 — Excel Exports

Native Excel export for every module

Each module writes an .xlsx workbook with Summary and Detail sheets. A total is a formula over the rows it totals, and every figure matches the page it comes from. Tables and charts in the report copy straight into Excel, and each opens full screen.

18 — Logins per Reader

A Dashboard and a Sealed Copy per Reader

Each reader opens the report on a dashboard of their own, built from the report's sections: CEO Flash, Board, Department Head or one set up for them. Their copy is encrypted for them and holds the views and entities granted; everything else is taken out of the file.

A reader's own copy of the group report: the CEO Flash dashboard, three entities and nine views

Meridian is a fictional demo company. All figures are sample data.

19 — The Operator App

One place for the setup

Entities, exchange rates and the company's own exports are set up here once, and every build starts here. Nineteen screens in all, including the account mapping, drivers, planned changes, the budget, forecast settings, the receivable review, statement layouts, design, users and dashboards.

Operator app, Dashboards: a user's first page, assembled from sections

Meridian is a fictional demo company. All figures are sample data.

Entities
Every entity in the group, each with its own files and formats.

Account Mapping

20 — Mapping Wizard

Every account, mapped once

Each entity's chart of accounts is mapped once to the CFO Foundry standard chart: every account to a P&L line or a balance sheet category. A balance sheet account also carries its transaction treatment: working capital, cash, debt or excluded, exactly one, so nothing is counted twice. The balance check shows at once whether assets equal liabilities and equity. Only the account code decides where an account lands; its name is never read.

Unmapped at a Glance

21 — Design

Your design, in every report

The company sets its own design in the operator app: colours, surfaces, corner radii, chart series and font, token by token or from a Figma tokens file. Every report takes it on its next build, and readers switch between dark and light.
