Finance

The Finance module of COSMO Analytics (BC on Fabric).

The Finance module turns Dynamics 365 Business Central general-ledger data into an analytics-ready star schema for financial reporting. It covers the three core financial statements - income statement (P&L), balance sheet and cash flow - with profitability KPIs (EBIT, EBITDA, gross profit, net income), balance-sheet structure (equity, debt, assets), actual-vs-budget comparison, built-in time intelligence (PY, YoY, YoY %) and multi-currency / multi-company support, plus account-level drill-through into balances, movements and journal entries.

Key capabilities

  • Income statement (P&L) analysis with actual, previous-year and budget comparison
  • Profitability KPIs - gross profit, EBITDA, EBIT, net income and their margins
  • Balance-sheet structure - assets, equity, debt and liquidity ratios
  • Cash-flow analysis split into operating, investing and financing activities
  • Cost-centre / financial-dimension reporting via the accounts report
  • Account-level drill-through to balances, movements and journal entries
