Use
The transaction figures for the accounts are updated in the fiscal year for each fiscal month. This can be up to 16 months. For each company code you specify how the fiscal year is divided into the fiscal months.
For example, 12 fiscal months (calendar months) or 13 fiscal months (four weeks each) can be defined.
If you decide on fewer than 16 fiscal months then the remaining periods (in the example, periods 13-16, or 14-16) can be used as special periods.
For the accounting documents, the fiscal month is derived from the posting date or you can enter it directly, if a special period is to be updated instead of the last period of a fiscal year.
