Why Finance Teams Choose Dryrun with QuickBooks Online
QuickBooks Online is a trusted accounting system, but when it comes to cash flow forecasting and cash flow management, its built-in tools don’t always provide the flexibility growing businesses need. Many finance teams rely on spreadsheets to fill the gap, but that approach creates manual work, errors, and wasted time.
Dryrun Cash Flow Forecasting Software connects directly to QuickBooks Online, giving CFOs and finance leaders faster, more accurate, and more flexible forecasts. With powerful scenario modeling, real-time insights, and streamlined workflows, Dryrun makes cash flow management simple, collaborative, and effective.
Why Spreadsheets Fall Short for Cash Flow Forecasting and Scenario Modeling
When QuickBooks Online’s native forecasting isn’t enough, spreadsheets often become the fallback. But what looks like flexibility quickly creates hidden costs. Manual entry, broken formulas, outdated exports, and version control chaos make it hard to produce reliable forecasts.
To unlock true cash flow forecasting and management, finance teams need more than spreadsheets. Dryrun combines automation, accuracy, and scenario modeling in one solution designed for QuickBooks Online users.
The Hidden Challenges of Spreadsheet Forecasting
Error-Prone Data Entry
Manual inputs and fragile formulas often distort cash flow forecasts, leading to poor decisions.
Time-Consuming Updates
Pulling numbers, entering data, and reconciling spreadsheets drains hours that could be spent on strategic work.
No Real-Time Sync with QuickBooks Online
Exports quickly become stale. Without live connections, forecasts lag behind actual cash activity.
Version Control Problems
Multiple spreadsheet copies create conflicting numbers and confusion over which file is current.
Complexity Overload
Multi-entity operations, seasonal shifts, and changing terms overwhelm spreadsheets. Scenario modeling becomes slow and error-prone.
Weak Collaboration
Spreadsheets weren’t designed for teamwork, making alignment between finance and leadership difficult.
Data Security Risks
Sensitive financial information is exposed without encryption or audit trails.
Scaling Issues
As data grows, spreadsheets slow down and become unwieldy, making accurate cash flow management harder.
Inconsistent Reporting
Spreadsheets make it difficult to deliver clear, consistent cash flow forecasts stakeholders can trust.
