Manual : Manual is entering cash flows directly when it cannot be modeled e.g. Equity Inflow, Tax Payments
2 Trend : Trend allows for driving the forecast based on historical actual or forecast data e.g. Labor payments, Lease Payments etc.
3 Driver-based: Business drivers are entered manually or loaded as operational assumptions that calculates a cash forecast (e.g. Avg DSO or Payterm for Expense),
where Sales Revenue, Expense, Salary or Capital Expense cash drivers are loaded while the forecast is calculated based on the defined payterm assumptions )
4 Statistical Forecasting: Statistical trends based on aggregated account balances (e.g. predict cash based on historical patterns of bank account balances by legal
entity)
5 Smart Driver/Heuristic Model: An approach to forecast problem-solving that applies general assumptions/rules to transactional data:
• Smart Drivers (e.g. use payment scheduled due dates for accounts receivable and or payable)
• Apply an ‘average delay’ by legal entity to all transactions
• Use ‘delivery date’ for sales orders or purchase orders
• Etc.
6 ML Model: Machine-generated forecast based on historical patterns or relationships in the various input variables (e.g. delay in cash receipts correlated with payment terms)

Predictive Cash Forecasting FAQ
Q: Is Predictive cash forecasting an Oracle Cloud EPM or an ERP process?
Ans. Predictive cash forecasting (PCF) is an additional business process in Oracle Cloud EPM Planning. Customers must
have Oracle Cloud EPM Enterprise edition, additionally it is optimized for Oracle Cloud ERP customers as data integration is
automated to pull Cloud ERP Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable and Cash Management data to drive the cash
forecasts.
Q: How is PCF different from cash flow planning in EPM Financial Planning ?
Ans. EPM Financial Planning module covers cash flow planning for longer term time horizons 1-3 years fulfilling the needs
of Financial Planning & Analysis teams that cover annual operating planning that goes across financial statement plans.
PCF focuses on short and medium term forecasts that covers time horizons of rolling 10-15 days and rolling 13-18 weeks
or 3-12 months horizons, fulfilling the needs of Treasury/Cash Managers or Controllers teams.
Q: Does PCF cover Direct or Indirect method of cash planning?

Ans. PCF covers Direct method of cash planning that is required by Treasury/Controllers who would like to forecast cash
based on operational level of data. Indirect method is more popular for reporting or longer term planning, and its derived
indirectly from income statement and balance sheet. EPM Financial Planning covers the indirect cash flow planning. EPM
Financial Consolidation and Close covers the indirect cash flow statements.

Predictive Cash Forecasting FAQ
Q: Will Predictive cash forecasting in Oracle Cloud EPM be a separate product on the pricelist?
Ans. No, it is a new business process in Oracle Cloud EPM Planning (Enterprise Edition)
Q: Will existing Oracle Cloud EPM customers have to buy predictive cash forecasting ?
Ans. Predictive cash forecasting will be part of Oracle Cloud EPM Enterprise edition. As long as they are on the enterprise
edition of Oracle Cloud EPM, they will have access to predictive cash forecasting business process. They would need a
separate instance of Oracle Cloud EPM to deploy this application
Q: What about Legacy Cloud (EPBCS/PBCS) or Standard customer or customers not using Planning in EPM Cloud?
Ans. Customers would have to upgrade to Enterprise EPM to use Predictive Cash Forecasting.

Trend-based
3 Prior Year Actual Takes the prior year actual for corresponding periods Marketing or
Service Revenue
✓ Pre-seeded calculations
4 Prior Year Actual Calculates the average for an account for the year prior to the Current Fiscal Year. Travel
Average For example, if the Current Fiscal Year is FY22, the prior year is FY21.
✓ Available for Monthly /
5 Forecast Average Calculates the average of forecast for the current fiscal year Labor Weekly
6 Seasonalization Applies the seasonality of last year actual for forcast periods to current year actual Trade Spends
average
✓ Could be useful for cash
in this methodology, current year actual average rate is calculated first. Thereafter,
forecast is calculated as per following formula. flows with regular
Forecast = Prior year actual amount for the period * sum of forecast amount (as per trends e.g. Rent,
Current Year Actual Average method) for remaining periods of current year / Sum of
Utilities, cash receipts
prior year actual data for same remaining periods.
7 Year over Year Inc/ Dec Applies a % increase or decrease to the prior year’s value. Rent
8 Periodic Growth Calculates year over year change for a line item using current year and prior year as the Variable
basis to calculate the growth. Compensation
