C-Suite: CFO Dashboard

The CFO dashboard provides an executive overview of a company's business performance. It delivers high-level ratios and metrics derived from the M3 financial data and displays a combination of revenue, liquidity, and debt metrics for a robust overview of your business' financial performance over fiscal periods.

This dashboard can answer these business questions:
  • Are we effectively turning capital into profit?
  • Is the company's cash flow sufficient to meet its long-term liabilities?
  • How profitable is the business?
  • How is the company performing in terms of turnaround time for accounts receivables and accounts payables?

Reports and KPIs in this dashboard show the values using End This Period analysis.

Filters selected in this dashboard are passed to the CEO, Balance Sheet, Income Statement, Key Ratio - Strategic, and Key Ratio - Operational dashboards so you can perform continuous data analysis.

Reports and KPIs

The dashboard contains these reports:
  • Working Capital & Liquidity Ratios by Period
  • Solvency Ratio by Period

Currency information and the selected Fiscal Period are displayed on the banner. The displayed information changes depending on the selected value in the Division and Fiscal Period filters.

The KPIs show the corresponding metrics for the selected period. Each KPI displays an indicator comparing the Fiscal Period value from the selected Period Comparison filter value (Last Fiscal Period or Fiscal Period Last Year). A trend chart is also displayed depending on the value selected in the Last N Period filter.

For Operating Income, Net Working Capital, and Free Cash Flow KPIs, a green head arrow pointing upward indicates an increase in value and a red arrow head pointing downward indicates a decrease in value. If there is no change, a yellow square indicator is displayed.

For Operating Cash Cycle (Days) KPI, a green arrow head pointing downward indicates a decrease in value and a red arrow head pointing upward indicates an increase in value. If there is no change, a yellow square indicator is displayed.

The KPIs use the Accounting Period Date as the date basis for analysis and the Sum aggregation.
