The innovative Opera features

Currency and Currency Risk Management

It is common today that some activities are located outside the euro area. For simplicity and accuracy, it is therefore necessary to build a financial forecast in local currency and let Opera manage the conversion. This feature opens up very important possibilities for the management of the forward exchange risk and in particular for calculating the global exposure of the company on a given currency.

Analysis of initial forecast adjustments

With autonomous audit layers, Opera's business plan module allows the user to avoid overwriting the initial business plan by recording any adjustments independently. This makes it possible to accurately measure and monitor their financial impact.

Integration of a budgeting module adapted to the business of the company

Some companies want to go further in the simplification of budgeting by integrating in Opera an automatic calculation of expenses and forecasting products. This is done from parameter tables entered or imported into the tool.

Quick update and automatic adjustment from years 2 to 5

The calculation of the charges and products from the years 2 to 5 is based on the landing of the year 1. This allows an automatic recalculation of these years if the figures of the current year are modified.

Construction of a forecast by project or by activity

It makes it possible to partition the different business models, the different geographical areas or the different branches of the company and then consolidate them in all simplicity and mastery.
