Static spreadsheet assumptions limit burn forecast scenario modeling accuracy and create outdated projections that don’t reflect actual business performance. Automated NetSuite cash flow data provides live actuals as the foundation for dynamic scenario planning.
Here’s how to automate cash flow data integration for sophisticated burn forecast modeling with multiple scenarios based on real financial performance.
Build dynamic scenario models with automated NetSuite cash flow integration using Coefficient
Coefficient automates NetSuite cash flow data integration for sophisticated burn forecast scenario modeling in Excel or Google Sheets . Your scenario planning becomes dynamic with live actuals data rather than static assumptions.
How to make it work
Step 1. Import standard Cash Flow statements with configurable periods.
Use the Reports method to pull NetSuite Cash Flow statements with quarterly and annual reporting periods. This provides audited cash flow information that serves as the reliable foundation for scenario modeling assumptions.
Step 2. Set up cash account balance synchronization.
Import cash and cash-equivalent account balances using Records & Lists for real-time cash position tracking. Include all liquid accounts to ensure scenario models reflect complete cash availability for runway calculations.
Step 3. Configure weekly refresh scheduling.
Set up automated refresh timing that updates scenario models with latest NetSuite cash flow data. Weekly refreshes ensure forecasts reflect actual business performance rather than outdated assumptions.
Step 4. Create SuiteQL queries for seasonal pattern analysis.
Build custom cash flow queries that identify seasonal patterns: “SELECT EXTRACT(MONTH FROM date) as month, SUM(CASE WHEN amount > 0 THEN amount END) as inflows, SUM(CASE WHEN amount < 0 THEN amount END) as outflows FROM transaction WHERE account_type = 'Cash' GROUP BY month". This enables more accurate scenario modeling based on historical patterns.
Step 5. Build multiple scenario frameworks.
Create Conservative Scenarios (current burn rates with buffers), Optimistic Scenarios (revenue growth and expense optimization), and Pessimistic Scenarios (increased burn and delayed revenue) using your imported NetSuite actuals as baseline data for all projections.
Transform static planning into dynamic scenario modeling
Automated NetSuite cash flow integration eliminates manual data compilation while providing real-time baseline data for accurate scenario modeling. Your financial planning evolves with actual business performance rather than outdated assumptions. Automate your scenario modeling today.
