Cash Flow Statement
Overview
The Cash Flow Statement summarizes the amount of cash from ongoing operation activities, investment activities, and external financing activities.
In GoldFinch, you don’t need to specify a Cash Flow Category for every Cash Receipt or Cash Disbursement transaction in order to run the Cash Flow Statement. You can run the Statement for any historical period.
How to Run a Cashflow Statement
Assign a Cashflow Category to all Balance Sheet G/L Accounts. Ensure you assign the Cash category to all Cash or Cash-Equivalent GL Accounts.
Review the attached sample GL Accounts with Cashflow Category assigned.

The Cash Flow Statement will display Operating Activities starting with the Net Income and then adjustments to the Net Income for all non-cash transactions.
