Integrating financial data into Microsoft Power BI

Unlock Actionable Insights from Your Financial Data

An analytical reporting solution that fully integrates your finance data into Microsoft Power BI to enable clear and visually rich financial reporting

Agile Finance solution is built on Microsoft Power BI, a reporting solution that extracts your detailed financial data and presents it in a simple and effective manner through a user-friendly and automated reporting system.

It can be used as an investigative and analysis tool, but also as a beautiful and clean set of reports suitable for senior management or board-level audiences.

It enables both Finance professionals and business management to always be clear on the financial performance and position of the organisation – with the clarity they need around the trends, scale and underlying drivers.

As the adage goes, if it isn’t being measured, it isn’t being managed – the Agile Finance solution delivers that capability and will let you directly improve your bottom line.

Why Agile Finance Analytics?

Common challenges with Finance Systems for Reporting

Agile Finance Analytics solution includes the core reporting you would expect –
Balance Sheet, Cash Flow Statement and Profit & Loss

To provide clearer understanding and insight, each of these core reports is supported by ‘deep dives’ into the primary components:

Balance Sheet

Analysis

For the Balance Sheet, you can separately explore the detail of net working capital, accounts payable and accounts receivable, inventory and fixed assets

Cashflow

Statement

For Cash Flow Statement
you can dive into your overall cash management performance and detailed account balance movements and metrics

Profit & Loss

Reports

For P&L you can separately explore the detail of revenue, margins, operating expenditure and profit, with the ability to switch to a ‘% of revenue’ view with a simple slicer selection

Agile Finance solution takes things a step further by presenting a comprehensive suite of standard financial ratios, plus additional reports allowing customised period and version comparisons, detailed variance analysis, ability to drill into general ledger accounts to transaction level, and ability to decompose a variance to its contributors – all without touching Excel.

Dashboard

Ratios

Get an overarching view of the financial health and trends in your business based on a broad set of standard financial ratios. Use slicers to filter for different periods, and to cut your data based on your existing financial dimensions.

  • Monitor the liquidity trends in your business to ensure you have sufficient assets to meet your immediate short term debt requirements
  • Monitor the working capital trends in your business to ensure your inventory is under control, that you’re maximising your creditor terms, and collecting cash from customers
  • Monitor your level of debt in the balance sheet, see debt relative to your earnings and ability to cover interest costs
  • Monitor trends in your core profitability results, relative to your revenue, to ensure you manage profit drivers before they become issues
  • Monitor the trends in the capital structure and performance of your business – how hard your assets are working for you and your returns on investment
Dashboard

Balance Sheet

Review your balance sheet in total and compared to a chosen period. Easily visualise trends at a line item and dimensional level to guide further investigation or corrective action. A second report page presents the same data by month, helping you to observe the values in you balance sheet as they move across periods to better compare trends over time across all line items in unison, and to see whether movements in one line impact another.

Net Working Capital

Dashboard

Understand the detail of your net working capital position – the mix of assets and liabilities and the more detailed components – click to see trends by dimension and within components to identify what might be driving levels too high or too low

Accounts Payable

Dashboard

Understand the quality of your accounts payable position – the ageing of those creditors by vendor and your ability to manage the balance between not exceeding credit terms and minimising your overall net working capital position.

Accounts Receivable

Dashboard

Understand the quality of your accounts receivable position – the ageing of your debtors by customer, and how effective you are at reducing the time between invoicing and receipt of cash to maximise your net working capital position

Inventory

Dashboard

Understand the trends in your inventory holdings down to a product level to ensure you’re not holding obsolete or excessive inventory, and that your conversion of inventory to sales is resulting in improved cash flow and reduce net working capital levels

Property, Plant and Equipment

Dashboard

Understand how your property, plant and equipment position is changing (with movements by month), how effective those assets are at generating income, and the overall composition of your assets at a detailed account level.

Customer Comparisons – Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, P&L

Dashboard

Compare a baseline period, filtered however you like for different dimensions or scenarios, to an alternative (period, filter, scenario) on the fly to be able to observe what the differences are or what may have changed over time in your balance sheet, cash flow or P&L. Save yourself time from manually extracting and comparing detailed data in Excel.

Balance/Entry Interrogation – Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, P&L

Dashboard

Drill deeper into a particular line in your balance sheet, cash flow or P&L to understand what makes up the value down to a transaction and account level, without needing to go to the source system for insight

Cash Flow

Dashboard

Review your cash flow statement in total and compared to a chosen period. Easily visualise trends at a line item and dimensional level to guide further investigation or corrective action. A second report page presents the same data by month, helping you to observe the values in your cash flow as they move across periods to better compare trends over time across all line items in unison, and to see whether movements in one line impact another.

Cash Management

Dashboard

Understand the trend in your cash inflows and outflows and how these have impacted your cash balances and cash efficiency – you can also pick two periods to understand how your cash has been used between those points in time.

Cash Balances

Dashboard

Understand your intra-month/daily cash movements versus the closing monthly balances – being able to see the key metrics by bank account and whether any bank accounts are underutilised, volatile or inefficient, helping you to better manage cash levels across the month.

Profit & Loss

Dashboard

Review your P&L in total and compared to a chosen period. Easily visualise trends at a line item and dimensional level to guide further investigation or corrective action. A second report page presents the same data by month, helping you to observe the values in your P&L as they move across periods to better compare trends over time across all line items in unison, and to see whether movements in one line impact another.

Revenue

Dashboard

Understand your revenue lines in the P&L in greater detail, with the ability to slice the result on the fly and understand the composition of revenue, and what is driving the change between periods or scenarios.

Margins

Dashboard

Understand your gross margins in greater detail (and click to switch between absolute and % of revenue terms), with the ability to slice the result on the fly and understand the composition of margin, and what is driving the change between periods/versions

Operating Expenditure

Dashboard

Understand your opex in greater detail (and click to switch between absolute and % of revenue terms), with the ability to slice the result on the fly and understand the composition of opex, and what is driving the change between periods/versions

Profit

Dashboard

Understand your core profit metrics (switching between EBITDA, EBIT, NPBT etc) in greater detail (both in absolute and % of revenue terms), with the ability to slice the result on the fly and understand the composition of profit, and what is driving the change between periods/versions

Variance Analysis

Dashboard

Drill deeper into a particular P&L line (both in absolute % of revenue terms) to be able to easily visualise the greatest contributors of variance to a selected period or scenario, and the trend in the variance to drive proportionate corrective action

Variance Decomposition

Dashboard

Drill deeper into a particular P&L line (both in absolute % of revenue terms) to be able to see the components that make up the variance to better guide corrective investigations to the right parts of the P&L (as opposed to particular parts of the business)
