About my expected profit or loss for a future month (In/Out/Profit/Loss)

Expected profit or loss shows your projected business earnings for a future month, based on scheduled transactions.

Quicken calculates this amount by taking your total scheduled business income and deposits for the selected month, and subtracting your total scheduled business payments and expenses for that same month. This calculation uses only future-dated business transactions you've already entered.

The result estimates whether you’re on track to make or lose money that month. A positive number means you’re currently scheduled to make a profit, while a negative number means you’re scheduled to take a loss. This helps you spot potential cash flow issues in advance.

This value appears in the Business tab under In/Out/Profit/Loss when you view a future month.
