In this step, you define fiscal year variants for your FM area.
You use a fiscal year variant to specify:
- The number of posting periods in a fiscal year
- The number of special periods you need
- How the system is to determine the posting periods when making postings
When making your definitions, you allocate your posting periods to the calendar year.
Note
You can define fiscal year variants for Funds Management that differ from Cash Budget Management and/or Financial Accounting.
Note the following:
If you use fiscal year variants with special periods, the variants in Funds Management and Financial Accounting must match. Otherwise, the FI postings are transferred to the period of the posting date instead of the special period of Funds Management.
Standard settings
The following fiscal year variants are created in the standard system:
- Variants for which the fiscal year corresponds to the calendar year with an additional one, two, three, or four special periods
- Variants for shortened fiscal years
- Variants for non-calendar fiscal years:
- April through March with four special periods
- June through July with four special periods
- October through September with four special periods
- Variant on a weekly basis.
This variant can only be used in the "Special Purpose Ledger FI-SL" application.
Activities
- Check the standard fiscal year variants.
- Create your own variants.
Additional information
Assign the appropriate fiscal year variant to your FM areas in the next step.
