## O que é Causal?

Causal, presented on the site as Lucanet’s xP&A software, is an extended planning and analysis platform for finance teams. It is designed to unify financial and operational planning, analysis, and reporting so organizations can work from shared data instead of disconnected spreadsheets and tools.

The product focuses on planning workflows such as budgeting, forecasting, scenario analysis, and management reporting. The source also emphasizes cross-functional planning across finance, headcount, supply chain, products, and regions, with integrations from systems such as accounting platforms, HRIS, ERP, and CRMs.
