Hi Sathish,

The setting has been maintained in tcode OB29.

In this tcode OB29, you create Fiscal Year variant without check in Year-dependent and Calendar year.

Specify the number of posting periods and special periods, example 12 posting periods and 4 special periods

Then, go to folder Periods, maintain the period in year

Another way is maintaining 24 period

So in the folder Periods, you maintain

Month     Day     Period     Year ****

1               16          19            -1

1               31          20            -1

2               16          21            -1

2               29          22            -1

3               16          23            -1

3               31          24            -1

4               16          1               0

4               30          2               0

5               16          3               0

5               31          4               0

6               16          5               0

6               30          6               0

7               16          7               0

7               31          8               0

8               16          9               0

8               31          10             0

9               16          11             0

9               30          12             0

10             16          13             0

10             31          14             0

11             16          15             0

11             30          16             0

12             16          17             0

12             31          18             0

Hi Julie,

1) Can you please explain, why you've taken 16 Days for every month except last month and what about remaining days.

2) How is it possible in year having more than 365 days because the satish asked question below..., it's having 380 days.

I attend one interview last week... interviewer asked one question.
Fiscal year starting with 16.04.2013 to 15.04.2014.

Thanks,

Hi Sagar,

Thank you very much for your question. After checking, I saw that I have some wrong here.

1) If the period start from 16th of month, we need to maintain the day is 15 in setting.

Month     Day     Period     Year

1               15          10            -1

2               15          11            -1

3               15          12            -1

4               15          1               0

5               15          2               0

6               15          3               0

7               15          4               0

8               15          5               0

9               16          6               0

10             15          7               0

11             15          8               0

12             15          9               0

12             31          10             0

But with December, you need to seperate it as 2 period, since you require different specifications for the year displacement.

It means period 9 will end at 15th of December, and period 10 will include the range from 16th Dec to 31st Dec and from 1st Jan to 15th of next year

2) In my opinion, I don't think we can maintain FY more than 365 days.

I have tried but cannot. If you find anyway to configure it, please share to me.

Hi sathish enuganti,

They asked to maintain from this April to next April?

Hi Julie...,

Sorry for delay in reply...,

I hope in below mentioned details and data helps you....,

The non-calendar fiscal year starts on April 16th, 2013 and ends on April 15th, 2014. Because the start date and end dates of the posting periods differ from that of the start and end of the calendar months, we need to maintain the period end of the periods (see in below table). For posting period 9, we need to define two posting periods: One ending on Dec 31st, 2013 and the other on Jan 15th, 2014. If we do not specify these dates the system will have problems in identifying the correct posting period for transactions falling between the dates Jan 1st, 2013 and Jan 15th, 2014. With the specifications a transaction posting dated Dec 25th, 2013 and another dated Jan 13st, 2014 are correctly identified as postings belonging to the posting period 9 and fiscal year 2013.

Non-Calendar Fiscal Year (Posting Period Not the Same as That of Calendar Months)
Calendar Year	Calendar Month	Fiscal Year	Posting Period	End Date	Year Shift
2013	5	2013	1	15-May	0
2013	6	2013	2	15-Jun	0
2013	7	2013	3	15-Jul	0
2013	8	2013	4	15-Aug	0
2013	9	2013	5	15-Sep	0
2013	10	2013	6	15-Oct	0
2013	11	2013	7	15-Nov	0
2013	12	2013	8	15-Dec	0
2013	12	2013	9	31-Dec	0
2014	1	2013	9	15-Jan	-1
2014	2	2013	10	15-Feb	-1
2014	3	2013	11	15-Mar	-1
2014	4	2013	12	15-Apr	-1
