Financial Reporting - Current Period Variable

Anybody know a quick way to get the Current Period Number (eg June = 6 ) for use in a formula? Thanks.

You'll need to restart FR studio, after you have created the substitution variables. As the studio only performs one read of the sub var database on startup.
It also won't show up unless you assign a member to it.
Hope this helps.

  • Financial Reporting: Current Month vs Prior Month Variance for all Entities

    Silly/Easy Question:
    How can I set up a grid in Hyperion Financial Reporting to show these columns for all entities- Current Month NIBT, Prior Month NIBT, Variance
    So, the report would look like:
    Florida Current Month, Florida Prior Month, Florida Variance...Georgia Current Month, Georgia Prior Month, Georgia Variance...Ohio Current Month, Ohio Prior Month, Ohio Variance
    All I can get it to do at present is:
    Florida Current Month, Georgia Current Month, Ohio Current Month, Florida Prior Month, Georgia Prior Month, Ohio Prior Month, etc.
    Thanks!
    Note: we have many entities, so hard coding them in the report is out.

    Update: been working with Oracle dev on this. Seems FRS cannot produce a report such as this:
    ----------Entity-----------------------------------------Entity-----------------------------------------Entity
    ----------Curr Mo - Prior Mo - Variance----------Curr Mo - Prior Mo - Variance----------Curr Mo - Prior Mo - Variance
    Account
    Account
    Account
    Account
    Account
    The data can be extracted in other layouts, but this is one we'd like to utilize for Balance Sheet Variance analysis and Tax ETR reports.

  • COPA Report current period and previous period issue

    Hi Gurus,
    I have defined COPA report (Tcode KE94) based on line items. Now I want all values to be displayed based on an entry parameter in terms of period. That is to say that  If I give input values of "010.2013" as a period entry , my report should display the values for the the period specified i.e. 010.2013 in the first column and in second column  values for the period 009.2013 should be displayed and in the third column values for the period 001.2013 till 010.2013 should be displayed cumulatively.
    For this, I choosed the character "period/year" in General data selection tab, clicked "Variable on/off" tab and gave values "From"  as well as "To" for the Global Variable "OFP"  which is Curr.fisc.per./year.
    For the 1st column (1st column which is suppose to display the values according to selection parameter), along with the character "company code" , I choosed the character "period" and clicked "Variable on/off" tab and gave value "From"  as well as "To" for the Global Variable "OFP"  which is Curr.fisc.per./year.
    For the 2nd column (2nd column which is suppose to display the values for the immediately preceeding period of the selection parameter), along with the character "company code" , I choosed the character "period" and clicked "Variable on/off" tab and gave value "From"  as well as "To" for the Global Variable "OFP"  which is Curr.fisc.per./year. While doing so, I selected operator as "-" and choosed offset as 1.
    For the 3rd column (3rd column which is suppose to display the cumulative values from the beginning of the fiscal year till the period mentioned in the selection parameter), along with the character "company code" , I choosed the character "period" and selected 001 in "From" and 016 in "To" tab.
    Company Code selected in all the three columns is same and I have selected actual values i.e. 0 for "plan/actual indicator" tab.
    When I run the report through Tcode KE30 , I give values as "010.2013" for the From and To selection tabs. System shows the values as per the selection parameter in the 1st column which is correct  but display values same as per coulmn 1st in the 3rd column which is wrong because it should be cumulative. 2nd column is blank. 
    How to display the values for the immediately preceeding period and for cumulative period?
    Regards,
    makrand

    Dear Ajay,
    Thanks for the reply. Here are the screen shots.
    For the general data selection tab
    For the first column "current month" i.e. for the month
    For the second column "Last Months"
    For the third column "Cumulative" i.e. year to date
    Following is the result of KE30
    Values for the period 010.2013
    You can see that values in the report for the period 011.2013 contains value for the previous period which is 59090.21
    This value is matching when the report is run for the period 010.2013.
    But in both the reports,the figures for Current month and YTD (year to date) are same.
    Please let me know what setting is required in the current month column.
    Regards,
    makrand

  • Financial Reporting (FR) using Substitution Variables with Quotes

    HI all,
    I've created a substitution variable, &CurWk, for a Period Dimension member. The member name, Dec Wk2, has an embedded space, so I enclose the member name in quotes when assigning it to the substitution variable in EAS. However, when I try to use that substitution variable in Financial Reporting, it does not recognize the Substitution variable. I've closed down and re-opened the FR Studio. If I remove the quotes around the member name when assigning it to the Substitution Variable, then FR will recognize the substitution variable. However, I get an error in the calc scripts if I try to reference the substitution variable if this member name is not enclosed in quotes. In my mind, this seems to be a bug in FR since quotes can be optional when referencing any member name. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a work-around? I'm using EPM 11.1.1. Thanks for your help!
    Vince Kelly

    Hi Vince,
    For the Calc scripts add & to the front of the sub var and surround the sub var with [ ], for example:
    where sub vars are ReptQTR, ReptYR, ReptScenario:
    CASE
    When (Is(QTR.Currentmember,[&REPTQTR]) and (IS(FY.Currentmember,[&REPTYR]))) then
         CASE
         When ((ISUDA(L000.CurrentMember,"NC"))) then
              CASE
              WHEN (ISUDA(L000.CurrentMember,"Expense")) THEN
              (([&REPTPYR],[ACT]) - [&REPTSCENARIO])
              ELSE
              ([&REPTSCENARIO] - ([&REPTPYR],[ACT]))
              END
         END
    END

  • Variable - Default to current period but allow input fomr user??

    Hello All,
    This may be a simple question.... I am not sure....
    I'd like to have a variable for a report where the user can select the fiscal period.  Creating this variable is not a problem.  The problem is that I would like for the variable to default with the current period.
    The best solution is for the variable to be displayed with the current period as the default selection but give the user the ability to overwrite this default value on the variable selection screen.  Can this be created as a customer exit variable?  We have tried this but can't get the variable to prompt the user and give them the option to overwrite when it is customer exit.
    thanks
    rodney
    Edited by: Rodney on Feb 26, 2008 10:14 PM

    Hi Rodney,
    Yes, I think you can use a customer exit variable for this. However, you need to set the code to I_STEP = 1 when you set the date to sy-datum. What happens is that at I_STEP = 1, the default value pops up in the variable screen. Then, your user can opt to change this value or just use the default value. If your user wants to change the value in the selection screen, it automatically overwrites the default value.
    Hope this helps,

  • How to get the End date of the dynamic period in Financial Reports

    Dear All,
    I have a issue with the Financial Report, I want to show the text under the Heading in the Balance Sheet like 31 DEC 2008 but in this date should be the end date of the dynamic period what user select in the POV.
    Can any one have any idea about this.
    Regards
    rao.

    There are 2 options:
    1. Use the POVAlias text function:
    e.g. <<POVAlias ("Grid1", DimName)>>
    (you could also use POVMember if the items you want is the member and not the alias).
    2. Have a hidden column on the report referencing the POV selection, then reference this in the header.

  • Wrong period displayed for current period in HR Report Category

    Dear Friends,
    I have used HR report category (X_M00002) in my program that only shows two options (radiobutton) for period selection:
    1. Current Period
    2. Other Period
    Problem is that when I select current period and press enter key it takes 01.2006 (i.e. 01.04.2006 to 30.04.2006) instead of current period 01.2010.
    What could the possible error be?
    Regards,
    Amit

    Hi Amit
    The current period will not be set based on the current calendar month and year. The current period will be based on the current period for the payroll area which you have entered. You can check the current period of a given payroll area from the transaction PA03.
    Hope this answers your question.

  • Problem with Periods' point of view on Financial Reporting Studio

    Hy all,
    i have a problem on some reports: i fix Periods' Point of View on Financial Reporting Studio signing in with Admin user. I do this to let other users see just a part of the dimension structure on workspace,but when i open workspace signing in with a generic user i can't see any changing: user can see all elements of the dimension. Otherwise If i sign on workspace with admin user i can see the Periods'POV i have fixed on reporting studio previously. So do you have any idea on what i can do to solve this problem?

    Hi,
    Could u plz clarify your problem bit more.
    Are you facing a problem while running the reports through work space..? While running the reports, is affected generic user getting a POV window..? If you are concerning about hierarchy that you select through POV window then It might be possible that POV might have got corrupted for that generic user and in that case we can delete the POV and set up the new POV again for that user.

  • Financial Reporting - Derived data and calendar periods

    I have two questions with Financial Reporting
    1. I have a P&L report that shows the full 12 months. FR displays the derived data of the next actual period even if there has been no consol. It therefore looks like all the data has been reversed to zero. Is there a setting to stop FR from displaying derived data?
    2. The application has a June year end. We want to display in the report titles the months based on their calender year rather than the fiscal year. This means that for Sept we want Sept 2011 to display, not Sept 2012 that will come from the Year dimension. Is there a function to handle that?
    regards

    The answer for this might be the VIEW dimension.If u have taken YTD please change it to Periodic and give a try.

    While creating application profile we have a choice to select the years or just look into application settings.I am not sure just give a try.
