What Cash Flow Means in Cadence
Cash flow in Cadence is a forward-looking view of your money. Rather than only showing what has already happened, it brings together your configured bills and income sources so you can see what's coming up over the days and weeks ahead.
The idea is simple: know what's due and when. By laying your upcoming bills and expected income out on a timeline, Cadence helps you spot a tight stretch before it arrives, rather than being caught out by it.
The Upcoming Activity Widget
The Upcoming Activity widget lives on your dashboard and is the main surface for cash flow at a glance. It shows a two-week day strip alongside a list of the bills and income scheduled for the near future.
The list pulls together:
- Your configured recurring bills with a due date in the coming days or weeks.
- Expected income from the sources you've set up.
- Real past transactions from the recent window.
Each entry shows its title, amount, and date, so you can scan the list and spot anything you weren't prepared for.
How Bills and Income Roll In
Bills with future due dates appear in the forecast as outflows. Income sources you've set up appear as inflows on their next expected pay date. Both are driven by what you've configured, so the quality of your projection depends directly on how complete and current your bills and income entries are.
When a bill or paycheque actually clears, Cadence reconciles the upcoming entry against the matching transaction so the feed stays in sync with reality.
Adjusting the Forecast
If your projection looks off, the fix is almost always in your underlying bills or income. Update an amount, change a frequency, or add a missing entry, and the cash flow view will recalculate.
See the Bills article for editing scheduled outflows, and the Income article for keeping your pay sources accurate.
