13-Week Cash Flow Forecast for Forensic Accountants with IDEA
Run 13-week cash flow forecast on autopilot inside IDEA.
The Problem
For Fraud Investigation clients, the 13-week cash forecast gets rebuilt by hand each Monday — pulling from IDEA, AR aging, AP aging, and scheduled payroll — and it's stale by Wednesday.
What We Build in IDEA
AI rebuilds the 13-week forecast nightly from live data, flags any week projected to go below minimum cash, and emails the owner with recommended actions — the forecast is always current. Purpose-built for teams running IDEA — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
IDEA Integration Approach
Audit your IDEA configuration
We map the specific IDEA objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your fraud investigation practice.
Build on the IDEA API or agent
Integration happens inside IDEA — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
Human-in-the-loop handoff
Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in IDEA with enough context to act — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
