Use
In this activity, you specify the leading fiscal year variant for the whole client in the Master Data Framework. This setting is mandatory and has the following significance:
Date-dependent master data and hierarchies are saved in the Master Data Framework as period-dependent data, that is, without an actual time reference. An actual time reference only exists when used in connection with the leading fiscal year variant. All period-dependent data is stored and interpreted with reference to this fiscal year variant. This means that the data can be read and changed for every application or data basis, even if different fiscal year variants are used in the individual applications / data bases / areas.
Warning
Avoid in all cases any subsequent assignment of a different leading fiscal year variant. Also avoid changing its definition. Otherwise, serious inconsistencies could occur. In such cases, it is generally necessary for all existing period-dependent data to be completely deleted and then created again.
Requirements
You have already defined all of your fiscal year variants. If your leading fiscal year variant is year-dependent, the periods have to be defined for the previous year as well as for the years 9998 and 9999 (this is for technical reasons).
