cashflow, cf\
|
|
This command displays a [cashflow statement](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cash_flow_statement),
|
|
showing the inflows and outflows affecting "cash" (ie, liquid, easily convertible) assets.
|
|
Amounts are shown with normal positive sign, as in conventional
|
|
financial statements.
|
|
|
|
_FLAGS
|
|
|
|
"Cash" assets are those accounts which are (or whose parents are)
|
|
declared as `Cash` by an account directive, like this:
|
|
|
|
```journal
|
|
account some:liquid:asset ; type:C
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or if there are no such declarations, all accounts
|
|
|
|
- under a top-level `asset` account (case insensitive, plural allowed)
|
|
- with some variation of `cash`, `bank`, `checking` or `saving` in their name.
|
|
|
|
More precisely: all accounts matching this case insensitive regular expression:
|
|
|
|
`^assets?(:.+)?:(cash|bank|che(ck|que?)(ing)?|savings?|currentcash)(:|$)`
|
|
|
|
and their subaccounts.
|
|
|
|
An example cashflow report:
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ hledger cashflow
|
|
Cashflow Statement
|
|
|
|
Cash flows:
|
|
$-1 assets
|
|
$1 bank:saving
|
|
$-2 cash
|
|
--------------------
|
|
$-1
|
|
|
|
Total:
|
|
--------------------
|
|
$-1
|
|
```
|

|
This command is a higher-level variant of the [`balance`](#balance) command,
|
|
and supports many of that command's features, such as multi-period reports.
|
|
It is similar to `hledger balance assets not:fixed not:investment not:receivable`,
|
|
but with smarter account detection.
|
|
|
|
This command also supports the
|
|
[output destination](hledger.html#output-destination) and
|
|
[output format](hledger.html#output-format) options
|
|
The output formats supported are
|
|
`txt`, `csv`, `html`, and (experimental) `json`.
