Cashflow

Here’s a truth every business owner knows: profit on paper means nothing if you can’t pay your bills today. The Cashflow module is all about liquidity — tracking the money moving in and out of your business every day.

In SevenLedger, this section is where you record customer collections, vendor payouts, internal fund movement, and business expenses.

How Cashflow Works

The Cashflow module operates on one simple principle: every movement of money should be traceable.

1. Record incoming money

Use Payment Received when a customer pays you. This reduces outstanding invoice balances and records where the money landed.

2. Record outgoing money

Use Payment Made when you’re settling vendor bills, and use Expense when the payment is for direct business spending rather than an Accounts Payable document.

3. Move funds between your own accounts

Use Cash Transfer when money is moving internally, such as transferring funds from one cash or bank account to another. This keeps both sides of the movement traceable without recording income or expense.

Why this grouping matters

This structure keeps the money side of the product in one place: what came in, what went out, and what moved internally between your own accounts.
