It enables customer payments to be collected and supplier debts to be settled within the specified time limits. The SIMAX Cash Flow module offers a comprehensive, automated solution for optimizing these processes. In particular, it allows you to enter bank accounts, process payments, manage payment reminders, and establish a schedule and cash flow forecast. By combining this forecast with the reminder engine integrated into SIMAX solutions, companies can more effectively anticipate their cash flow needs and accelerate cash receipts. By default, each SIMAX solution supports different payment methods (direct debits, transfers, checks, drafts, etc.) and allows bank statements to be imported in SEPA and CFONB formats to facilitate reconciliation. Entries are automatically reconciled when the amounts match or the cause of the discrepancy is identified, thereby enhancing the reliability and speed of financial monitoring. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://doc.simax.fr/documentation-simax-anglais/functional/cashflow/introduction.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
