Definition
Using the fiscal year variant, the fiscal year is established.
Use
You can define the following using a fiscal year variant:
- How many posting periods a fiscal year has.
- How many special periods you need.
- How the system should determine the posting periods during posting.
When defining you assign your posting periods to the calendar year.
The assignment control requires the same number of posting periods in the company code and in the assigned controlling area.
This means that the fiscal year variants used in the company code and controlling area must agree in the number of
posting periods.
For each company code you must establish which fiscal year variant should be used. For this, you have to define the corresponding fiscal year variant. It is not allowed to contain more than 16 periods.
Note:
The delivered company codes are assigned to the fiscal year variant, which corresponds to the calendar year and uses an additional four periods.
You can maintain fiscal year variants and the assignment of fiscal year variant - company code in the Financial Accounting Customizing. pflegen.
