Documentation

Definition

The period shift function is used to calculate reference data for a planning method. It specifies the number of periods for which the system should calculate in relation to the time frame specified in the planning package. If the reference data belongs to a period in the future, enter a value with a negative sign.

Note that the number that you enter is dependent on the current fiscal year variant, which you can display by selecting the pushbutton.

Example

You have selected the periods 001.2000 to 012.2000 in the planning package and the current fiscal year variant is C4 (calendar year, 4 special periods).

If you enter value 12 for the period shift, the data from the preceding year is taken as the reference data, that is, the values for the periods 001.1999 to 012.1999.
