1. Overview
Weekly Summaries help operators quickly understand what happened last week, what matters this week, and what requires attention now.
Finz automatically sends Weekly Summaries every Monday at 9:00 AM in the user’s local timezone. The same summary can also be accessed inside the platform from the Home tab.
The summary combines cash activity, margin performance, obligations, collections, and Signals into one weekly operating snapshot.
Operators commonly use Weekly Summaries to:
review cash movement from the prior week
identify upcoming cash pressure
monitor obligations and collections
prioritize operational follow-ups
understand what needs attention this week
Weekly Summaries are also connected to Signals, AI CFO insights, and Monday snapshot emails across Finz.

2. Opening the Weekly Summary
Weekly Summaries appear inside the Home tab and may also appear as a notification banner when a new summary becomes available.
There are multiple ways open the summary:
Open Home from the left navigation
Select View from the Weekly Summary banner at the top of the screen
Open the Monday Weekly Summary email and select View Summary
The summary opens as a modal showing last week’s activity, upcoming obligations, and recommended actions.
3. Understanding Last Week Cash
The Last Week Cash section summarizes how cash moved during the prior week.
This section includes:
ending cash balance
total cash in
total cash out
Operators often use this section to quickly identify:
unusually high spend
slowing inflows
volatile cash movement
changes in operating rhythm
These values are based on actual observed activity from connected banking and accounting data.

4. Understanding This Week Obligations
The This Week Obligations section focuses on expected near-term cash pressure.
This section may include:
projected outflow
projected ending balance
AP due this week
expected collections
Finz uses Accounts Payable (AP), Accounts Receivable (AR), cash activity, and forecasted obligations to estimate what may impact cash during the current week.
Operators commonly review this section before payroll runs, rent payments, or large vendor obligations.

5. Understanding Last Week Margin
The Last Week Margin section summarizes operating performance from the prior week.
This section may include:
revenue
net profit
net margin
The goal is to help operators connect operational performance with cash movement, not just accounting totals.
These values are based on weekly operating finance calculations inside Finz.

6. Understanding Top Actions
The Top Actions section highlights the most important items requiring attention this week.
These actions are generated from Signals and ranked based on:
urgency
dollar impact
working capital relevance
operational risk
Examples may include:
overdue invoices
large upcoming outflows
payroll pressure
vendor payment risks
uncategorized transactions
collections delays
Finz is designed to surface actions automatically so operators do not need to manually review separate AP or AR reports.

7. Monday Snapshot Emails
Finz automatically sends Weekly Summary snapshot emails every Monday at 9:00 AM in the user’s local timezone.
The Monday snapshot uses the same source data shown inside the platform and is not generated from a separate reporting workflow.
These emails commonly include:
Last Week
ending cash
cash in
cash out
revenue
net margin
This Week
expected collections
AP due
projected ending cash
Top Actions
highest priority actions and risks
This allows operators to stay informed even when away from the platform.
