Minimal by design
Cash Workspace's forecast is a planning baseline, not a finance model. Five fields are enough to set a yearly expectation; the rest of the workspace shows whether reality is drifting from it.
Forecast
Cash Workspace holds five forecast fields per workspace — horizon, expected income, expected expenses, currency, projected net — and presents them alongside the actual invoices, expenses, and documents the forecast is supposed to describe.
Cash Workspace's forecast is a planning baseline, not a finance model. Five fields are enough to set a yearly expectation; the rest of the workspace shows whether reality is drifting from it.
Expected income and expense numbers appear alongside the actual invoices and expense records in the same workspace. Drift between plan and reality is visible without exporting to a separate tool.
The current template ships with a single yearly forecast. Multi-scenario planning (best, expected, worst case) is on the roadmap and will not require restructuring an existing workspace.
Scope
The forecast is decision support for small operators. It is not an audited cashflow forecast, a regulated financial projection, or finance advice.
