I purchased Financial Forecasting and Planning Model. I am using a MacBook Pro with Excel installed. But it does not work!

Wow, I am impressed. Played a little bit with the model today and found that its is super-complete. and incredibly flexible. It can quickly bee adapted to any type of industry or sector in my opinion. Much better and flexible than other programs that charge you hundreds of dollars per month such as Plan Guru, Idu, not to mention Budget Maestro. Maybe the only disavantage would be that it is not that easy for the model to be used by several people and departments,etc, but for a lone wolf,( or 2 or 3) it is perfect.

  Hi Victor,
  First of all, thanks a lot for your interest and kind words! Appreciated!
  
  Customer satisfaction is the most important thing for us. So, thanks a lot again for the time you spare to write this review. If you also have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us anytime!
- Victor Miguelez – February 13, 2021
  
  Thanks for your kind note. Further to my analysis of the model, I discovered that there is not an automatic calculator for Income or expense growth. How can I include a factor or percentage of growth to different elements of the Income or expense? Should I create a reference worksheet?
  
  Thanks in advance and looking forward to your answer.
- Someka – February 14, 2021
  
  Hi again Victor,
  
  If you would like to add a calculator for income or expense growth, you need additional formulas or functions. As you also mentioned, you can create a reference worksheet for you to add a formula that helps you to calculate that growth.
  
  But, we recommend you to do this if you have professional Excel knowledge. Otherwise, it might corrupt the logic of the template itself. You can also have a look at our Hire an Expert page to get support for customization. Thus, you will be able to include this information in the existing template.
  
  Hope that helps!

I am interested in the Financial Forecasting template, just need to know if the number of years-months can be extended beyond the 2 yrs included in the free template. I need to have at least 5 yr projections, both annually and monthly.

Thanks in advance,

  Hi V,
  
  First of all, thanks a lot for your interest!
  
  The trial version has a limited capacity and it is created for just providing a demo version to see all the features of the template. So, it would be better for you to download the premium version.
  The projection time of the premium version of the Financial Forecasting and Planning model is already created for 5 years ( all versions; weekly and monthly)
  
  If you have further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

I’ve looked at the demo – impressive! However, it seems like this is only designed for a Trading Co. We have an IT Service Shop.
- Someka – July 18, 2020
  
  Hi Kareem,
  
  First of all, thank you for your interest! Appreciated!
  We have created our template for all organizations which seek to be successful as we already mentioned in our product description. So, you can also use it for your company as well. After you download the template you will be able to make some modifications according to your needs on your own.

Downloaded the free trial. Many thanks. The template is ok. Unfortunately, I am in the cooperative business and this template is not suitable for my needs.
