Documentation

Definition

You use the fiscal year variant to define the fiscal year for the consolidation unit. This data item is evaluated only in currency translation.

Use

You have the option to determine a fiscal year variant for consolidation units that differs from the fiscal year variant that is specified for the consolidation area. Having a different fiscal year variant enables you to correctly execute currency translation on the consolidation date even for subsidiaries with a fiscal year that does not match the fiscal year of its parent company.

For detailed information, see the Consolidation documentation in the SAP Library under Master Data and Hierarchies -> Organizational Unit -> Consolidation Unit -> Fiscal Year Variant of the Consolidation Unit.
