Flux Analysis overview

Open Flux Analysis when you need to inspect period-over-period balance movement, resulting in a grouped variance table for account, vendor, and detailed trend review.

Workflow

Step 1

Open Reporting

Start in Truewind on Reporting so you can access Flux Analysis from the reporting navigation.

Step 2

Open Flux Analysis

This opens the Flux Analysis page and loads the current controls and variance table.

Step 3

Review the available views

Flux Analysis supports both Profit and Loss and Balance Sheet views, so confirm which financial statement you want to investigate first.

Step 4

Review the grouping options

The default grouping is payee, but dimension-based grouping is available when those dimensions exist in the ERP data.

Step 5

Toggle Hide Zero Balance Rows

Use this when you want to remove zero-balance vendors from the table for the selected date range.

Step 6

Check the latest sync time

Confirm the latest sync timestamp before reviewing variances so you know how current the analysis is.

Step 7

Choose the date range

Pick the period you want to analyze before expanding any rows, because the selected range controls every variance in the table.

Step 8

Review the parent-account view

The default table shows the parent account level first so you can start high-level and then drill down where needed.

Step 9

Expand the first level

Expand the row to move from the parent account into the next level of detail.

Step 10

Expand the second level

Keep expanding until you reach the level where the variance is easier to interpret.

Step 11

Expand the third level

Continue drilling down when you need sub-account or vendor-level context instead of only the rolled-up balance.

Step 12

Expand the fourth level

Use one more expansion when the final vendor-level detail is still hidden beneath the current row.

Step 13

Review vendor-level balances

At the vendor level, the table shows which balances are driving the account movement.

Step 14

Review the variance values

Each month shows both percentage and dollar variance so you can evaluate magnitude as well as change rate.

Step 15

Open the variance summary

Click a balance cell to open the side drawer and review the AI-generated variance summary for that movement.

Helpful review habit

Confirm the selected view, grouping, Hide Zero Balance Rows setting, and date range before you interpret any variance, because those controls can change the meaning of the table quickly.

FAQ

What views are available in Flux Analysis?

Flux Analysis supports both Profit and Loss and Balance Sheet views, so you can investigate movement in either reporting surface.

How often does Flux Analysis sync?

The Tango workflow shows Flux Analysis syncing every 12 hours, and the latest sync timestamp appears in the upper-right area of the page.

Limitations

Flux Analysis depends on synced ERP data

If the ERP is not connected or the latest sync has not finished, the analysis may be incomplete or unavailable.

Grouping depends on available dimensions

Additional Group By options appear only when the relevant dimensions exist in the connected ERP data.

Troubleshooting

The expected balances or vendors do not appear.

Check the selected date range, grouping, and Hide Zero Balance Rows setting before assuming the data is missing.

The variance looks wrong.

Expand the parent account into sub-account and vendor levels, then open the side drawer from the balance cell to review the variance summary.
