What lands here
What to watch out for
Rent is close to a perfect fit for the default projection: the same amount, the same day, every month. The two things it cannot see are a rent review and a move — both of which are step changes known well in advance. If either is coming, model it as a contract with the new amount from the date it takes effect rather than letting the forecast discover it after the fact.
Planning this line properly is what Simulating fixed costs is for.
How it's forecast
With the default setup — no extensions, no drivers, no custom projections — Office & Rent is projected from your own booked actuals using the trailing 30-day average: the last 30 days are summed and divided by 30 to get a daily rate, which is carried forward flat and aggregated into each week and month.
daily rate = sum of the last 30 days of actuals ÷ 30
monthly forecast ≈ daily rate × days in month
For Office & Rent, €3,200 booked over the last 30 days gives €3,200 ÷ 30 ≈ €107/day, so a 30-day month projects to about €3,200. As new actuals import, the window rolls forward and the projection updates on its own.
Horizon: up to 24 months of history and 24 months forward. The table shows 12 months (or 13 weeks / 90 days) by default — scroll horizontally for the rest.
Want a different shape — a fixed cost, a growth trend, or a share of revenue? That's what the Custom Projection extension and driver-based forecasting are for. This page describes the default, historical-only behaviour.
