| Treasury Board | Workspace | How much have we got today, how much will we have, and what is due to the banks — the three questions a treasurer opens with, on one screen. | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Cash Position | Read-only list | The daily snapshot. Kept rather than computed on demand: re-deriving yesterday’s position from today’s transactions gives a different answer once a back-dated correction lands. | 13 | 0 | 1 |
| Cash Forecast | Read-only list | Receivables at their EXPECTED date, payables at the chosen one, payroll, tax and debt service. Versioned, because accuracy cannot be measured without keeping the forecasts that were wrong. | 14 | 0 | 2 |
| Forecast Lines | List | Confidence is the difference between a forecast and a wish: a receivable from a customer who has never paid late is 95%, a sale that has not been signed is 30%. | 12 | 12 | 0 |
| Liquidity Categories | List | A treasurer’s categories are operational — customer receipts, supplier payments, payroll, tax, debt service, capex — and one GL account can feed several of them. | 7 | 10 | 0 |
| Cash Pools | List | Money in eleven accounts earns nothing while an overdraft in the twelfth costs eight per cent. Physical pooling moves the money and creates real intercompany loans; notional pooling only nets the interest. | 12 | 18 | 1 |
| Pool Participants | List | Sweeping to zero is not always right: a payroll account needs a float, which is what the target balance is for. | 9 | 13 | 0 |
| Pool Sweeps | Read-only list | What moved, and the intercompany position it left behind — the thing an auditor will want reconciled to the counterparty. | 9 | 0 | 0 |
| Debt & Instruments | List | Loans, facilities, deposits and derivatives. A facility’s undrawn headroom is the most important liquidity figure a company has and lives nowhere in an ordinary ledger. | 15 | 37 | 1 |
| Debt Service Schedule | Read-only list | The largest and most certain line on a cash forecast, and the part most often kept in a spreadsheet on the treasurer’s laptop. | 10 | 0 | 0 |
| Debt Covenants | List | A promise to a lender, tested quarterly. Breaching one makes the whole facility immediately repayable — testing it before the bank does is the entire reason to hold it here. | 12 | 13 | 1 |
| Covenant Tests | List | Headroom in the direction that matters: how much worse it could get before it breaches. | 10 | 9 | 0 |
| Debt Maturity | Read-only list | What matures in each band — the refinancing risk picture, and the classification a balance sheet needs. | 7 | 0 | 0 |
| Guarantees & Letters of Credit | List | Not on the balance sheet and absolutely on the risk register: a performance bond that expires unrenewed loses the contract it secured. | 14 | 26 | 0 |
