Deviations

Plan vs. actual comparison in COMMITLY – analyzing differences in income and outflows.

In the Deviations section, actual inflows and outflows (Actuals) are compared with the planned values. This makes differences between planning and actual development, and their possible causes, visible.

Overview Change in Cash

  • Green bars: actual income

  • Red bars: actual outflows

  • Blue line: change in cash (net balance)

  • Monthly view → you can see immediately in which months there was a surplus or a deficit

Overview – All inflows

  • Comparison of planned and received income

  • The “Deviation” column shows whether income is better or worse than planned

  • Display of open items and receivables still to be collected

  • Sorting by Actuals, planned or deviation possible

  • Note: A warning appears if not all transactions are mapped → these must be processed first

Overview – All outflows

  • Comparison of planned and paid outflows

  • The “Deviation” column shows overruns or underruns

  • Display of open items and amounts due

  • Here too, sorting by Actuals, planned or deviation is possible

This view helps you to spot deviations from the Plan quickly, analyze causes and draw conclusions for future planning. Deviations are also shown in the planning module, each with an indicator for the previous period.
