Within any forecast, you can add predictions. There are multiple ways you can add predictions.


Manual predictions

You can manually create a prediction in any forecast type. There are then four different methods you can use to create the prediction:

Formula

Reference accounts, other predictions, whatever you need to create detailed KPIs. Even set certain results based on 'if' statements.

Freestyle

Each month can have unique figures added, or ignored, it's up to you.

Repeating

If your prediction is consistent, use this method to set the behaviour. You can set repeats to be daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or annually. You can even add percentage or fixed amount increases or decreases for each period.

Unit

A helpful option for predicting product sales. Set the selling price and the quantity to sell and this prediction method will do the rest. You can set Weekly, monthly, quarterly or annual periods. You can also add growth and refund percentages, or future price changes.


Import predictions

You can import predictions using our integration with Google Sheets. This is a useful way to import multiple predictions in bulk.


Excel upload

You can add predictions to the 1 year P&L and the 3-year cash flow forecasts using an Excel upload. This is another way to import multiple predictions in bulk. Any excel upload overwrites the existing predictions in the forecast.


Auto-predictions

When you create a new forecast, one of your options is to create it with auto-predictions.

This allows Futrli to use its prediction and accounting algorithm to create predictions based on your data synced from your integrated accounting software.
