Assignment of different fiscal periods

Hi all,
I´m seeking for a solution for different fiscal periods and how it is possible to configure them for reporting.
My current configuration is that data in BW is assinged
Sep 10 to Sep 10
Okt 10 to Okt 10
Dec 10 to Dec 10
and so on.
The correct assignment should be
Sep 10 to Dec 10
Okt 10 to Jan 11
Nov 10 to Feb 11
Dec 10 to Mar 11
and so on.
How and where could this assignment be realized?
In the DataWarehouse or is it more for Business Explorer or Query Designher definition?
Thanks for your help.

Do I have to do it in one transformation? For example: map calendar month to fiscal period and in this transformation I can set also the fiscal variant as M4 (M4 means?)?
Or is each field mapped separately? Calendar month to fiscal period and fiscal variant to fiscalvariant?
Because at the moment I´dont have a fiscal variant in my data source which I could use for mapping. The fiscal variant is actual taken out of the accounting area and mapped to 0FISCVARNT at transformation level.

  • Use of Different Fiscal Year Variant-Statistical Depreciation Area Postings

    An existing Company Code in SAP is going to have Fixed Assets implemented.  This Company Code is setup just like the others in our SAP instance: Same Chart of Accounts, Same Fiscal Year Variant, Fixed Asset procedures, etc.  For purposes of this question our company's Fiscal Year is from August 1st to July 31st.  In addition, this Company Code will post Fixed Assets just like the other SAP enabled Company Codes into Book Depreciation Area 01.  The company I work with is on ECC 6 but we use the Classic Ledger for Financials, and the Special Ledger is posted to but not really utilized.
    For the Country Specific/Tax Reporting purposes within Fixed Asset Accounting we have created a Statistical Depreciation Area 03 (I will call it Tax) with its own Life and Depreciation Key assignments with a setting of 0 in OADB-No Posting in GL for this Fixed Asset go-live, so I think we are set there.  The tricky part comes in the reporting.  The country in question requires information to be generated on a Calendar Year basis, which is obviously different than the Fiscal Year outlined above.  To my knowledge we would have to assign Tax Depreciation Area 03 to the Calendar Fiscal Year Variant: Financial Accounting>>Asset Accounting>>Valuation>>Fiscal Year>>Fiscal Year Variants>>Specify Other Versions on Depreciation Area Level. 
    The other piece of this is to get the Fixed Asset Reporting for Tax Depreciation Area 03 to work on a Calendar Year basis for the Company Code in question.  When I did some research I stumbled upon the link below.  In summary it says that you have to manipulate the standard Fixed Assets reports in Excel for Asset Acquisitions and Depreciation, and setup a new Retirement routine/transaction for posting into the Special Depreciation Area.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/05/bc0bf3d8f811d1953e0000e82debf7/content.htm
    My questions are:
    1) Besides assigning a different Fiscal Year Variant for Tax Depreciation Area 03, is there anything else I need to worry about on the setup end?
    2) Is the article I posted accurate when it comes to how the reporting works and the need for setting up a Calendar Year specific Asset Retirement Routine?  If so, what are the configuration steps for setting up a Calendar Year specific Asset Retirement Routine?
    3) Is there anything else that I need to consider for enabling Fixed Assets at an existing Company Code with different Reporting requirements for Book/Tax purposes?
    Thanks in advance for all responses.  I am willing to answer any other questions on this subject if needed.

    Hello Rio.  In our scenario, we still had to load assets in the legal entity with this issue.  When we loaded the fixed asset data into SAP we did with data accurate as of December 31, 2011; which for book purposes is 5 months into our company's fiscal year, and for tax purposes is the end of the 2011 calendar year.  The calendarized reporting for the tax depreciation will need to be pieced together manually using the SAP recommended methodology of combining report values, which I have pasted below.
    Since this is the only SAP-enabled entity that has this scenario right now we are in wait and see mode to see if this sufficient.  In the end the SAP path for Dual Calendar was too much of a risk.
    I hope this helps.

  • DP Planning in Fiscal Periods and Fiscal Weekly Periods

    Hi,
    We are using fiscal calnedar that starts on first Sunday of Nov with 4 weeks in each period i.e., fiscal year 2009 started on Nov 2nd (Sunday) and first period goes from Nov 2nd (Sunday) to Nov 29th (Saturday) and so on.
    So, our fiscal week also starts on Sunday and ends on Saturday i.e., in first period of 2009 the following are the fiscal weeks
    1 fiscal week - Nov 2nd to Nov 8th
    2 fiscal week - Nov 9th to Nov 15th
    3 fiscal week - Nov 16th to Nov 22nd
    4 fiscal week - Nov 23rd to Nov 29th
    1 fiscal period  - Nov 2nd to Nov 29th
    In storage bucket profile we are able to assign only one fiscal period profile. There is no place to consider fiscal weeks.
    Created two planning books as follows
    1. Planning book with time bucket profile of fiscal periods. It is allowing me to plan in fiscal periods and works as expected
    2. Planning book with time bucket profile of fiscal weeks. It is not allowing me to plan in fiscal weeks
    How to make the fiscal weeks planning book work?
    Thanks in advance,
    Srini

    What version are you using? We asked for this in 2003 at ASUG and although it was delivered in 4.1 we never got it to work, but when we upgraded to 5.1 it works perfectly.
    Define 1 storage bucket profile with fiscal weeks and 2 planning bucket profiles, one with fiscal weeks and the other with fiscal months. Then define your planning area with the SBP fiscal week. Within interactive planning, turn on the header functionality. Choose the first icon on the upper left corner of the planning grid and choose "change periodicity" and you can switch from "fiscal weeks" to "fiscal months".

  • Single Query with multiple fiscal variants / fiscal period

    Experts,
    Currently we have two different queries 1) for US and 2) for Mexico.
    Both the queries are hard-coded with respective company codes and different fiscal variants. We have i step =1 variable, so in both query we have respective fiscal period by default in variable screen.  The user can decide to run the query for current fiscal period or manually overwrite it for past few fiscal periods.
    Now, we want to consolidate two queries into a single one and behind the scene depending on company code entered by user we want the query to run for default period AND we also want user to have liberty to change it for different fiscal periods (similar to istep 1 variable) which is hard coded for each query. Please advice how to proceed?
    Thanks!

    Hi Durgesh,
    I agree with part 1- we can let user select his company code, but my challenge is pre-populate or get the default fiscal period for different company codes.
    2) You can keep rest of the things as it is, because you will be populating the default period value and if user want he can select the required value manually.
    (Alok) =  So if user runs report in Nov'2011 = the US fiscal period is 002/2012; but for Mexico it might be 011/2011 - so is there any way where we can give this value in prompt screen and at the same time not let user remember these values...
    Since with single query and without hardcoding how to determine the current fiscal period for different company codes?

  • Assigning Different Fiscal Year Variants between comapny codes

    Folks,
    We have 2 company codes 1000 and 1010 both are assigned to controlling area 2000. I want to know what are the impacts of assigning company 1000 and 1010 to different fiscal year variants. I get this warning message when i try to save.
    Please advice if this is advisable to do? and what are the impacts.
    Message no. KT297
    Diagnosis
    Fiscal year variant K4, controlling area 2000, does not agree with fiscal year variant V9, company code 1010.
    The following entries must agree:
    Same number of posting periods (the number of special periods may vary)
    Same period limits
    Procedure
    Ensure that the fiscal year variants of the controlling area and the assigned company codes agree. If necessary, maintain the fiscal year variants.

    Dear Zaid Azam,
    you have assigned 1000 and 1010 to one controlling area 2000,
    To assign more than one company code to one controlling area the below are conditions
    1) The Operative fiscal year variants in the company codes must match the fiscal year variant in controlling area.
    2) The company codes must use the same chart of accounts.
    So  if you are assigning other fiscal year variant where the number of posting periods are different, hece system giving an error.
    Thanks and Regards

  • Using fiscal period and Fiscal quarter reporting seemlessly in a BI Query

    Hi,
    We have a very specific issue. Reporting the Fiscal Period( in our
    case we have 53 fiscal periods) and Fiscal Quarter( we have 4 quarters)
    in the same query seamlessly as we would have done using Calander Month
    and Calander quarter in other reports that uses SAP delivered standard
    time dimensions.
    However unlike the Calander time dimension (SAP provided all
    possible...0CALDAY, 0CALWEEK, 0CALMONTH, 0CALQUARTER, 0CALYEAR) where you have all of these inside your info provider, you can get
    aggregation on week, month, quarter etc in your query seamlessly, The Fiscal Year/Period offers a problem in doing report seamlessly.
    When we delve into Fiscal realm, SAP only provided with 0FISCVARNT,
    0FISCPER, 0FISCYEAR and a special period 0FISCPER3. It doesn't provide
    anything like 0FISCQUARTER etc and rightly so, because you can have
    only one 0FISCVARNT in the Time dimension and can have related periods
    (0FISCPER) only for a Row of data in your infocube. For example if you need to model as per the Fiscalweek, you can create a custom Fiscal year variant (Say z1) and can configure to have only 53 periods (Mapped to 0FISCPER) representing
    53 Fiscal WEEK. Similarly for mapping Fiscal Quarter you can create
    another fiscal year variant (Say Z2) and have only 4 periods (mapped to
    0FISCPER also in this case) to represent the 4 Fiscal Quarter. However
    the issue is that for one record you can only map either of those and
    not both since you can only have one Fiscal year variant in one row of
    data in the info provider.
    For example
    If I have two rows OF DATA coming from different sources (One FOR
    Fiscal Week and another for Fiscal Quarter) I can have the following in
    my info provider.
    1> Example data in Fiscal
    Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0FISCVARNT 0FISCPER Quantity
    X  ......  y .....10/22/07 ....Z1 ....           43’2007 .......10
    X .......  Y .....10/22/07 ....Z2 ....          Q3’2007 .......20
    The issue is how do I report the Quantity in a query in Quarter Q3 as
    (10 + 20 = 30) since both the rows corresponds to FISCAL Q3’2007?
    (Please note that Fiscal week 43’2007(For VARIANT Z1 ) actually is
    Fiscal Quarter Q3’2007( For Fiscal Variant Z2) as per our
    configuration of Fiscal Year Variant configuration Z1 and Z2)
    The same is very simple when I have infoprovider with CALENDAR Time
    dimensions , for example if we don’t have any fiscal reporting
    requirement and just report on calendar time dimension the record in
    the info provider would look like the following ( example)
    2> Example Data in CALENDAR DIMENSION
    Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0CALWEEK 0CALQUARTER Quantity
    X ........ y .......10/22/07 .......43’2007 .......Q3’2007 .......10
    X ........Y .......10/22/07 ....... 44’2007 .......Q3’2007 .......20
    Here we can use both 0CALQUARTER and get the data aggregated on the
    quarter level in addition to the 0CALWEEK.
    To solve this issue, One option that we are thinking of Using 0CALQUARTER to represent the
    Fiscal Quarter and use Update rule to populate this one. For example
    THE example 1 can be as follows.
    1A> Example of using 0CALQUARTER along with 0FISCVARNT and 0FISCPER
    Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0FISCVARNT 0FISCPER 0CALQUARTERE Quantity
    X .......y .......10/22/07 ..............Z1 .......43’2007 .......Q3’2007 ..............10
    X .......Y .......10/22/07 ..............Z2 .......Q3’2007 .......Q3’2007 ..............20
    In this case we would populate the 0CALQUARTER by the actual Fiscal
    Quarter and then can use both as per example 2 above. But this is not a
    smooth option since we have various other info providers to join and
    report based on solely Fiscal Quarter etc…
    I am certain that this issue have already been solved by somebody as this bound to happen in any finance application.
    Would appreciate if we can get some light on this regarding the data modelling, reporting etc.
    Thanks
    Arun G.

    You have yourself suggested a solution, which is fine,
    Other option is to have a new characteristic Fiscal Qtr in all the infoproviders ans update the same using a routine in the updaterule depending on the fiscal year variant.
    for eg. for transaction with variant Z1 in one case you can say if fiscal week 01 between 01 to 13 the Fiscal Qtr should be update with1 and if it is between 14 to 26 then update fiscal qtr with 2 and so on.
    For other Variants Z2 you write a different login in the routine ans so on.
    so for all the data irrespective of the variant you will have the qtr as either 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 and you can report on this fiscal qtr.
    assign points if it helps.

    Hi Kareem
    What you are doing is not correct
    All comp codes under the Contrr Area must have same FYV and same Ch of accounts
    1. Go to IMG and assign same FYV to the 3rd comp code
    2. Go to IMG > FI (New) > Global Settings > Ledgers > Define and Activate Non-Leading Ledgers
    Here,  activate parallel ledger for this 3rd comp code and assign the other FYV in the parallel ledger
    Also maintain the Doc No ranges for parallel ledger because your FYV will be different between Main and Parallel ledger

  • Company codes with different fiscal year variants in a controlling area

    Hi all,
    When I try to assign a company code with different fiscal year variant than controlling area I get error. It is ok so far.
    However, after assigning company with same fsv to controlling area the system lets me to change company code's fsv in company code global settings and I can even save it.
    So I wonder how it would be possible ? Why do I get just a warning instead of an error and save ?
    Thanks and regards.
    M.Yusuf Dogan

    Hi Bulut,
    There are 12 normal and 3 special periods in the fsv of the company code which i'm trying to assign. However, controlling area's fsv has 12 normal and 4 special periods.  I get an error message "KT297".
    Actually, my point is that if the company code's fsv is same with co's I can assign but the system lets me change cc's fsv after assignment.

  • One Controlling Area for Two CoCds with different Fiscal Year variant

    Hi,
    I have a Company code with FYV "A1" with 12 Periods (Apr - Mar) - Fiscal year start at Apr-01 and ends Mar-31 of the next year.
    I have another company code with FYV "B1" with 12 Periods (Jan-Dec). - Fiscal year start at Jan-01 and ends Dec-31.
    Chart of Accounts for both the company code is same.
    Can I assign these two company codes to one Controlling Area?
    When I try to assign the company codes, I got the following warning message.
    Differing fiscal year variants: A1 - B1
    Message no. KT297
    Diagnosis
    Fiscal year variant A1, controlling area 1000, does not agree with fiscal year variant B1, company code 5001.
    The following entries must agree:
    - Same number of posting periods (the number of special periods may vary)
    - Same period limits
    Procedure
    Ensure that the fiscal year variants of the controlling area and the assigned company codes agree. If necessary, maintain the fiscal year variants.
    1. What is the meaning of "Same period limits"?
    2. Does it mean the fiscal year start and end date must be same?
    3. What is the impact of the warning message?
    Thanks
    Palani

    Having same fiscal year variant is one of the requirements for different company codes to be under one controlling area.
    The FYV for the company codes and the controlling area can have a different number of special periods. The number of posting periods must be the same.
    Impact of warning message: You cannot create one controlling area for both company codes (1:n assignment).
    If you like, you can create one controlling area for one compnay code with FYV A1 and another controlling area for another company code with FYV B1.
    PS: Please reward the points if you find the answer as useful and rewarding points is a way of saying thanks.

  • Fiscal Period and MM period.

    Hi all,
    Can somebody explain the difference b/w Fiscal Period and MM Period in business context. Detail explanation will be helpful.
    thanks & regards,
    Prashant Rathore.

    Dear,
    Fiscal Year Definition
    Usually a period of twelve months for which a company regularly creates financial statements and checks inventories.
    The fiscal year may correspond exactly to the calendar year, but this is not obligatory.
    Under certain circumstances a fiscal year may be less than twelve months (shortened fiscal year).
    Fiscal Year Structure
    A fiscal year is divided into posting periods. Each posting period is defined by a start and a finish date. Before you can post documents, you must define posting periods, which in turn define the fiscal year.
    In addition to the posting periods, you can also define special periods for year-end closing.
    In General Ledger Accounting, a fiscal year can have a maximum of twelve posting periods and four special periods. You can define up to 366 posting periods in the Special Purpose Ledger.
    What is the Use of Fiscal Year
    In order to assign business transactions to different time periods, you must define a fiscal year with posting periods. Defining the fiscal year is obligatory.
    You define your fiscal year as fiscal year variants which you then assign to your company code. One fiscal year variant can be used by several company codes.
    You have the following options for defining fiscal year variants:
    Fiscal year same as calendar year
    Fiscal year differs from calendar year (non-calendar fiscal year). The posting periods can also be different to the calendar months.
    You define your fiscal year variants in Customizing for Financial Accounting as follows: Financial Accounting Global Settings ® Fiscal Year ® Maintain Fiscal Year Variant (Maintain Shortened Fiscal Year)
    MM Periods
    Closing operations are periodic tasks and can be subdivided in FI as follows:
    u2022     Day-end closing
    u2022     Month-end closing
    u2022     Year-end closing
    The closing operations component helps you prepare and carry out the activities required for day-end, month-end, and year-end closing. For this purpose, the system provides a series of standard reports that you can use to generate evaluations and analyses directly from all of the posted account balance. The system helps you carry out the following:
    u2022     (Time-based) accruals/deferrals of expenses and revenues
    u2022     Creating the balance sheets and P&L statements
    u2022     Documenting the posting data
    Prerequisites
    To carry out the closing operations in G/L accounting, you first need to carry out the closing operations in the subledger accounting areas you are using. These include:
    u2022     Accounts receivable and accounts payable accounting
    u2022     Inventory accounting
    u2022     Asset accounting
    u2022     Payroll accounting

  • Option to show values up to last closed fiscal period or up to current date

    Hello,
    How would I create a query that would ask if I want it to calculate values 'up to the current date' or for the 'latest closed fiscal period'.
    Currently I have setup a report, within which, has restricted key figures that will give the 'Period to date', 'Year to Date', and 'Last Year Year to Date' values for some RKFs, however, it would be very helpful if this report could be setup so that the user could choose whether the report provides:
    1. Values only through the last closed fiscal period
    or
    2. Values up to the current date.
    <b>For example</b> if we are in period 7 of 2006, the user could have the report show all values up to the last closed fiscal period, which in this case would be period 6 of 2006.
    Or the user could have the report show all the values up to the current date.
    Hopefully I have been clear,
    Thanks,

    Nick,
        What is the problem you are facing? As San mentioned you can only report till Last Fiscal Period using Customer Exit Variables(Calculate Current Fiscal Period using Current Month and Fiscal Year Variant).
    Or as you mentioned you can create restricted Key Figures using Date or month (YTD etc)
    If i miss your requirement, please guide me.

  • Problem with BI-IP and Offsets in Fiscal Period/Year

    Hi freinds,
    I got a request that is linked to BI-IP and Query design.
    The request is that the users should always see a complete year by Fiscal Periods (001.2010...012.2010).
    Now the BI-IP should be dynamic. This means in 007.2010 the user should plan 008.2010...012.2010, the previous month are supposed to be the actuals.
    Problem: I do not want to change the query each month in order to move the planning month. I tried to use an offset with 11 month actuals. Saying "current month/Year", -1,-2,...,-11 using 11 restricted key figures. Same I did for the planning month. I now limited the Data to 2010 in the filter and anywhere I could. However, the result columns are showing all 22 Month. 001.2010...007.2010 are the only once which carry data. all other columns are empty.
    I just do not want to see the columns that do not belong to the current year.
    Any ideas or How to's I can use?
    Thanx and best regards
    Joerg

    Sorry, but I can't imagine how that should work.
    I have two Cubes combined under a Multicube. One containing the Actuals and one for the Forecasts. To show the actuals I have to create a restricted key figure that shows the actuals and for the forecast I have to select differently.
    What is the exit variable supposed to do? I could use a SAP Provided variable to find out about the first month and the actual month, but since it will be a restricted keyfigure it will be shown as sum between the two month. I need for each month of the year a column, and the "open" Month should be input ready. And this should be dynamic.
    Thanks for helping

  • Reversal of asset document in different fiscal year

    Hi Friends,
    An asset was acquired in period 12, 2008 through t-code ABZO. No depreciation was charged in 2008 because the dep start date was 01.01.2009 in the asset master. Then depreciation was charged and posted for the asset in period 1 and 2 in 2009. Now we want to reverse the asset acquisition posting which was posted in 2008. While making the reversal through AB08, the error message is - Reversal not allowed in different fiscal year.
    (1) Is there any way that the reversal can be done without opening FY 2008?
    (2) What would be the impact on the dep which is posted in per 1 and 2 of 2009?
    Thanks in advance for your much needed help !!!!

    Hi,
    Before doing this I would like to Understand the following:-
    1. Where you have credited when you have debited the Asset ?
    2. Reversal May be possible if you do the following;-
      1. You will have to change the depreciation key as "000"
      2. Repeat run for AFAB.
      3. Reverse the Same Asset by ABZO by different Transaction type.
      4. Otherwise Scrap the Asset.

  • Use of different fiscal year variant in leading&non leading ledgers and Asset closing&Reporting

    Experts,
    Need one clarification on using different fiscal year variants for Leading(0L)&non Leading(NL) Ledgers and impact on Fixed Asset Accounting.If I use say V6(Jan2013-Dec2013) for Leading Ledger and April2013-March2014 for non leading Ledger,(local GAAP)-please clarify the following.
    1.Does Asset Accounting gives all standard reports as expected in both(Leading&Locals) the Depreciation areas?Do we need to any settings specially for in the above scenario?(I am assuming point#4 given below may not help for this as system gives an error if both the fiscal year variants have different start&end dates)
    2.How is Year end in Asset Accounting handled?If I close the year end in Asset Accounting for Company Code as per Leading Ledger i.e say by Dec 2013,can I still post the asset entries in non leading ledger?Because Financial year for Leading ledger will be 2014 and non leading will be still 2013(in Jan2014).
    3.I am aware SAP has some restrictions way back in 2005-2007 (SAP note 844029) for different fiscal year variants in Leading&Non Leading Ledgers,Does SAP come out with any solution later?
    4.What is the exact use of the settings at  Asset Accounting>>Valuation>>>Fiscal year>>Fiscal year variants  at company code level or Depreciation area level?My understanding here is,they are not meant for using different fiscal year variant with different start&end dates but they are meant for using different fiscal year variant with same START&END DATES  and have different number of posting periods i.e 1 can have 12 and other can have 13.
    Please can you give your comments?

    Hi Hinfi,
    It seems standard SAP does not manage different fiscal year variants (at least with different start/end dates) in different depreciation areas.
    However, they came up with an add-on solution called Multiple Calendar Tool and based on a mirroring solution that synchronizes asset transactions in a mirror company code.
    It's all explained in following notes:
    Note 1175751 - Project solution for alternative fiscal year variant
    Note 1636025 - Asset acctg multi calendar tool 1.0_ SP Note
    Note 1658489 - Installation of Asset acctg multi calendar 1.0 software
    Note 1658714 - Asset acctg multi calendar tool_ Overview Note
    Note 1691481 - Release strategy_ Asset acctg multi calendar tool
    Note 1951069 - Different fiscal year variants in General Ledger Accounting (New) (NewGL) under the new Asset Accounting (FIN_AA_PARALLEL_VAL)
    I don't know if it's commonly used and personnaly have no feedback on it. I was curious to check how to manage a depreciation area 01 posted in a leading ledger in US GAAP (FYV january to december) and another depreciation posted in a non leading ledger in Indian GAAP (FYV april to march).
