Definition

The transaction figures of accounts are updated in the fiscal year per fiscal period. A maximum of 16 fiscal periods can be updated. Specifications are made for each company code as to how the fiscal year is divided into fiscal periods.

12 fiscal periods (calendar months) or 13 fiscal periods (four-week periods) can, for example, be defined.

If less than 16 fiscal periods are declared, the remaining periods can be used (in the examples 13-16 or 14-16) as so-called Special periods.

The fiscal period for the accounting document is derived from the posting date or can be entered directly if a special period is to be updated instead of the last period of a fiscal year.
