Hisabi's Live Finance Dashboard — Receivables, Cash Flow, VAT, Client Risk
A single dashboard that answers the four questions every UAE SME founder asks weekly: who owes me, will I make payroll, how much VAT do I owe, and who's a risky client?
Most invoicing tools stop at "send the invoice." The four questions a founder actually asks in a Sunday status check are different: who owes me money, will I make payroll, how much VAT do I owe at the next filing, and which clients are dragging their feet?
Hisabi's finance dashboard answers all four in one screen, updated live the moment an invoice is sent or a payment lands.
Receivables Aging
The first card breaks unpaid invoices into 0–30, 31–60, 61–90, and 90+ day buckets. Click a bucket to see the invoices and clients inside it. The 60+ buckets are the ones that hurt — you've already done the work, paid the cost of acquiring the client, and the cash hasn't shown up.
The aging report is what the rest of the dashboard hangs on. Cash-flow forecasts, client risk, even VAT timing all flow from the simple question: who actually pays, and when?
Cash Flow Forecast
The cash flow card shows the last 6 months of inflow (paidAt-based) and the next 30 days of expected inflow based on outstanding invoice due dates and per-client payment patterns. "Expected" is honest — invoices to clients who historically pay on time are weighted heavily, invoices to slow payers are weighted down. The chart is closer to reality than a naive "due date = pay date" projection.
VAT by Quarter
The VAT card shows your current FTA tax-period position — Output VAT collected, Input VAT recoverable, Net VAT Payable — alongside the previous three quarters for trend. If your VAT bill is suddenly 30% higher than last quarter, you see it the day it shifts, not the day before filing.

Client Reliability Score
Each client has a reliability score derived from their actual payment history with you — average days-to-pay, percentage paid on time, percentage of invoices that needed a reminder. New clients with no history default to neutral until 3 invoices have been paid.
It's not a credit score and we don't share it externally. It's a private signal for you: which clients you can chase confidently and which ones probably need a deposit before the next project starts.
Client Risk Analysis
Adjacent to reliability is risk: clients who are overdue and have a poor reliability score are flagged red. Clients overdue but historically reliable are flagged amber (it's probably an admin oversight, send a polite nudge). Anyone with a 90+ day overdue and red reliability is the conversation you've been avoiding — the dashboard surfaces it instead of letting it hide.
Built for the Sunday Status Check
The dashboard is mobile-first (375px tested) because that's where Sunday status checks happen. Open on the phone, scan the four cards, decide where to focus. The detail views are one tap deeper.
