Create a Cash Projection Manually
You can create a new cash projection manually in the Cash Projection Viewer. If you want to use different criteria for the projection later, you must create a new projection with new parameters. You can create or delete projections at any time.
To create a cash projection:
- In Accounting Center, do one of the following:
- In the left navigation pane, click Transactions > Cash > Cash Projection Viewer > Open Cash Projection Viewer.

You see the Cash Projections Viewer workspace. - On the Cash Projections Viewer tab, in the General group, click Create New.
You see the Create Projections tab. - Complete the options for the cash projection.
- Click Save & Close.
The system generates the projection based on your criteria and it appears in the Cash Projections Viewer workspace grid.
