A 13-week forecast is only useful if it is current and explained. A Short Term Liquidity Forecasting Playbook reads bank feeds, scheduled receipts and payments, and the AR and AP timing behind them, projects cash week by week, and flags the weeks the position runs short with the drivers attached.
The Challenge
A 13-week cash forecast is assembled by hand from the ledger, bank feeds, the AR aging, and the AP run. By the time the workbook reconciles, the data has moved and the week it warns about is already closer.
A spreadsheet can tell you week 3 is short. It cannot tell you that three enterprise receivables slipping past terms and a debt service payment landing the same week are what put it there, so there is nothing to act on.
Cash positions, receivables, and payables update on daily and weekly rhythms. A forecast rebuilt once a quarter is out of date the moment it is shared, and the borrowing window it should protect has usually closed.
How eyko Solves It
A Short Term Liquidity Forecasting Playbook connects to your ERP, bank feeds, AR, and AP, projects net cash and headroom across the next 13 weeks on a regular beat, and surfaces the weeks the position runs short with the specific drivers ranked behind each dip.
Projected net cash falls 4.2M below the operating floor in week 3 of the 13-week horizon, then recovers by week 6. Weeks 1 and 2 hold comfortable headroom, so the shortfall is concentrated, not systemic.

| Trend direction | Declining | Stable | Review required |
Short term liquidity forecasting projects net cash and headroom week by week across the next quarter. The Playbook reads bank balances, scheduled receipts and payments, and the AR and AP timing behind them, then marks the weeks the position falls below the operating floor so treasury sees the shortfall while there is still time to move a lever.
This is decision intelligence in practice: the what, the why, and the what next from your live data.

Everything you need to know about Short Term Liquidity Forecast.
Short term liquidity forecasting projects net cash and headroom across a near-term horizon, usually the next 13 weeks. eyko reads bank feeds, scheduled receipts and payments, and the AR and AP timing behind them, then flags the weeks the position runs short with the drivers ranked behind each dip, so treasury can act before the week arrives.
A spreadsheet shows the projected balance but not why it moves, and it is out of date as soon as the underlying data changes. The Playbook refreshes on a regular beat, attributes each short week to specific drivers like late receivables or scheduled debt service, and recommends the levers that clear the shortfall.
It reads from your ERP general ledger, AR and AP, and your bank feeds, alongside any data platform you already run. There is no separate data project to start, and it works with systems such as SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, and Workday.
Once connected, the Playbook returns a 13-week forecast and the drivers behind it on its next beat, in minutes rather than the days a manual build usually takes, then refreshes as the data changes so the position stays current.
