Documentation

Definition

The transaction figures of the accounts are updated for each period of the fiscal year A maximum of 16 periods can be updated. It is specified for each company code the periods into which a fiscal year is divided.

For instance, 12 periods (calendar months) or 13 periods (each of 4 weeks) can be defined.

If less than 16 periods are agreed on, the remaining periods (in our example 13-16 or 14-16) can be treated as special periods.

In the accounting documents, the period is derived from the posting date or can be specified directly if, instead of the last period of the fiscal year, a special period is to be updated.
