SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

plan-payroll prevents payroll-date cash shortfalls by forecasting coverage using your actual QuickBooks AR/AP timing and your current Paywhere balances, then guiding overdue collections with explicit owner approvals.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cash forecasting with confidence bands: Builds a 30/60/90-day cash forecast, flags named risks, and produces an XLSX the owner can review before any action is taken.
  • Overdue invoice ranking and reminder drafting: Ranks overdue invoices by amount, days-late, and payment history, then drafts Mail reminders in appropriate tones without sending anything automatically.
  • Approval-gated, two-step workflow: Chains the forecast step and the overdue collection step with hard safety gates so the owner authorizes every handoff.

Quick Start

Ask plan-payroll to forecast payroll cash for the next 30 days and draft overdue invoice reminders for approval.

FAQPage Schema
How do I forecast payroll cash coverage using QuickBooks AR and AP timing?

Yes, overdue invoice reminders are drafted in appropriate tones based on amount, days-late, and payment history. The system creates mail drafts but never sends them automatically, requiring explicit owner approval before any collection action.

Can I automate overdue invoice chasing without sending emails automatically?

Yes, overdue invoice reminders are drafted in appropriate tones based on amount, days-late, and payment history. The system creates mail drafts but never sends them automatically, requiring explicit owner approval before any collection action.

What is the workflow for approval-gated payroll planning and cash risk management?

The workflow uses a two-step, approval-gated pipeline that chains cash forecasting and overdue collection steps. Hard safety gates ensure the owner authorizes every handoff, stopping on connector failures with retry or abort options.

What happens if QuickBooks or Paywhere connector failures occur during cash forecasting?

The cash forecasting pipeline stops immediately on connector failures, providing the owner with retry or abort options. This safety mechanism prevents incomplete data from skewing your payroll coverage projections.

How do I close a month-to-date cash gap before my next payroll date?

You can close a month-to-date cash gap by ranking overdue invoices by collection likelihood and drafting targeted reminders. The system identifies whether overdue collections can close the shortfall within your defined horizon.
