Postings in shortened fiscal year period

Hi expert,
We are trying to do a fiscal year change from Fiscal year variant V3 with Non Calendar year Apr to Mar to Calendar year.
This will result in shortening the fiscal year to 9 periods and omitting period 10 to 12.
However, for the company that we are trying to change the fiscal year variant, there are CO posting made to period 10 and 11.
We understand that there are many documentations that there should not have postings in period 10 and 11. What else can we do to enable us to enable the shortened fiscal year ? Will reversing the documents make any difference?

Hi Markus,
Thanks for your instant reply. I have activated the key and set the OAYP settings in FI-AA
Anything else ,please let me know.

FI-AA Impact on changing the year dependent fiscal year period from 445 to 435

Dear Friends,
May I have your comment on the impact of below change
Currently using Year Dependent fiscal year variant K5 and period end closing is *445
future we want to use the same fiscal year dependent variant K5 , however the period end closing will be *435
*445 Periods - 1st month 4th sat, 2nd month 4th sat, 3rd month 5th sat will be the closing periods
similarly for the rest of the months in a year
*435 Periods - 1st month 4th month, 2nd month 3rd sat, 3rd month 5th sat will be the closing periods
similarly for the rest of the months in a year
Impact on Asset Module and other modules will be a great help

Hi Sanjai,
SAP do not recommend to change a Fiscal Year Variant that has already
been assigned to a company code and has already some postings. This
will may create database inconsistencies
Please check the following SAP notes which will give you an
idea of some adverse effects that may happen as a result of a change
based on the modules/components you have implemented in your system.

The change of the fiscal year or the change of the fiscal periods
has an effect in many modules, for example, in FI, FI-AA, FI-SL, FI-LC,
EC-CS, IM, CO, EC-PCA, MM, PP, SD, PS, PM.
Corresponding risks (for example, data inconsistency, system standstill)
can arise from incorrect changes to the fiscal year or from incorrect
changes to the fiscal periods in a live SAP system.

Depreciation in 2012 for assets are as expected with 11 periods. Half month's depreciation posted in the month of acquisition, and the following months are calculated accurately up to period 11.
In FY 2013, June and July are in Period 1.
For FI Posting, this is true and correct.
For Depreciation Posting, only one year's depreciation is calculated but we need 1 year + 1 period (because the previous year was shortened by one period).
Is there a setting to increase the depreciation or extend the depreciation for 1 period in 2013 that was reducde in 2012?
The shortened Fiscal Year changes are not in productiveness. The assets created are new assets such as in a normal operation when shortened Fiscal Year has been in place. As such, new assets have no expired useful life yet and it is newly capitalized.
No user exits or custom development is in place.
I have checked all the following notes, either they made no changes or were not relevant:
58443
183546
397925
1572545
210214
26891

1010159
515571
123026
799719
672255
428292
160093
The depreciation calculation is lacking/missing one period of depreciation eventhough depreciation is not reduced.
Please suggest any possible solution to this issue that we are facing. Thanks!

Please check SPRO transaction AFAMA for the Depreciation Keys:
Setting:
Depr to the day
No reduct in short year
Period control according to fiscal years
Check which is appropriate starting with the above order as I think this will fit your logic. But this depends on whether postings have already been made in the periods you want adjusted. If so then you need to use AFAR and choose repeat run after you have changed your config settings for the periods already posted. Additionally you may have problems if you have rolled forward your Fiscal Year in Assets and you will/may need to roll it back if possible before running AFAR etc.
SAP normally calculates depreciation for straight line by taking the number of periods in a year and dividing total depreciation for that year by the periods and posting that figure for the month. If you set Depr to day then it will take into account different months day length etc.
No reduc in short year would also solve your problem but would reflect the full year depreciation in the shortened year (12 periods not 11).
Hope this helps if its not to late.

Shortened Fiscal Year and its impact on BI back end and Bex reports

Hi All,
Our client is making some changes to the fiscal year period.
Becuase of some business requirements, we will have to shortened the fiscal year.
Can you please suggest - what are the watch points when we do this?
- what will be the impact to BI back end and Bex reports?
Thanks,
Nisha

Hello Nisha,
Since the fiscal year (Infobjects - 0FISCYEAR and/ 0FISCPER3) is compounded with fiscal year variant, therefore maintaining the correct variant in BI will automatically take care of showing the data correctly.
So there are two things to be maintained in BI:
1) To see that the variant definition.
2) If you need to display the text of the fiscal periods, then the correct texts.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Regards,
Shweta

Depreciation in shortened fiscal year

Hi,
For the tax depreciation area (02), I have a problem in the calculation
of depreciation and the remaining life of assets after a shortened
fiscal year.
In the fiscal year variant we use, all fiscal years have 12 periods
except 2008 (3 periods from february 2008 to april 2008).
To have a good calculation of depreciation and remaining life,
2007+2008 should be considered as a unique fiscal year of 15 periods.
Can I, only for the shortened fiscal year, have particular rules to calculate the base value and the remaining life ?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Shorten fiscal year

Dear gurus,
currently, our company would like to change the financial year end from FY2010 (jan- Dec) to (March to Feb). We are using FIAA and CO. Currently the controlling area code is accross companies. Now, we are in month of July 2010. Therefore, can i extend my period from 12 periods to 14 periods in SAP? i understand SAP has the feature of "shortening fiscal year". However, i would like to have details steps on it.
Please helps.
Thank you.
Regards
Kee Hwee, Lee

Hi,
In SAP, the Shortening fiscal year stands for which fiscal year contains less than "12 posting periods" is called as a shortend fiscal year and it would suits to your requirement tentatively for 2 months (Jan and Feb).
But, how do you draw the balance sheet for the whole year for upcomming year?
In Generally, the shortend Fiscal Year would be used at the begining of the SAP use, the business go live is for few months rather than one full fiscal year.
I suggest you to go, to use the Leading and Non-Leading Ledger Concept for the same. So then, you can keep the fiscal year K0, K1, K2, K3, K4 (Any one - Jan to Dec) and create a new fiscal year for your requirement of March to Feb. You do get the reports for both the Fiscal Year Variance at once.

Fiscal Year / Periods does not show properly in WebI and compunding

Hi,
I have few reports where I am using Fiscal Year /Period as filter.
I have created a Universe on the top of a SAP BI Query and did not do any customization.
Then I created a WebI report. In this report I created various filters beside Fiscal Year / Period. When I run report, filter window opens. I can select all other filters but when it comes to Fiscal Year / Period it does not show me the values I want to see. It shows AUG 0001, APR 0025 etc. I want to see AUG 2010, MAR 2009 etc so that I can select them and get the data of the required Fiscal Year / Period. In Cube I have the required data. If I select MAR 0010 etc I donu2019t get any data.
On the other hand if I put fiscal Year / Period in columns or rows it shows the right value.
If also run SAP BI Query and Fiscal Year / Period in Variable then on variable screen I can see the right value from where I can select and get the required result.
Do I have to do any step at Universe level or something else?
It seems that Fiscal Year / Period is compounding.
Is there any help?
Thanks
Bashir Awan

Ingo,
for thanks for igniting my thoughts in this regards.
Yes these values do exist in SAP BW.
It is some how compunding the values at filter level.
It does not let me see the whole value when filter screen popup in BOBJ.
In SAP whole value shows when variable screen popup, I see three columns Fiscal Year / Period. Text, Posting Period Key, and Posting Year Key.
Fiscal year / Period Text which shows Aug 2009, Posting Period Key which shows our period 1 to 16, and Fiscal year key which shows 2009 etc.
Is there any setting in BOBJ which compunds the year for variable screen so that we may see the whole values for filters?
thanks

Web Report not printing the fiscal year period variable value

Hi,
In web report where in one text element, we enabled the fiscal year period variable value to display
in the report result.
If we run the report then this fiscal year period is displaying in the general information.
We have print button (Java Code), where user can take a printout of the same report.
In the printout this Fiscal year period is NOT PRINTING, other variables like rollup time, technical name of report etc are printing perfectly.
It is required to print the fiscal period also in the print out of the report.
Any help to come out of this.....

Formula to calculate two fiscal year/period difference for non null quantit

We'd like to have a query result like the following:
Person -- Jan_2007 -- Feb_2007 -- Mar_2007 -- No. of Months
Tom --- 21 --- 54 --- 10 --- 2
John --- 0 --- 3 --- 15 --- 1
In the above query, the row is sales persons, the 1st three columns list the sales quantity by each sales person restricted by fiscal year/period and we would like to create 4th column "No. of Months" to calculate (will use formula) the month span (difference) for each sales person from his last sale activity (the last month he performed sales) and the 1st sale activity (the first month he performed sales) as listed in the above query result, e.g., Tom performed his first sales (sales quantity: 21) in the month of January of year 2007, and he performed his last sales (sales quantity of 10) in the month of March, 2007, then the "No. of Months" column value for Tom is 2. The calculation formula will be performed based on the last quantity value (> 0) to trace it's corresponding column fiscal year/period value (max of the fiscal year/period value with quantity value >0) and on the 1st quantity value (>0) to trace it's corresonding column fiscal year/period value (min of the fiscal year/period value with quantity value >0) and then do the subtraction between the max of the fiscal year/period value and the min one.
Would be appreciated if BEx experts here give the detailed steps on how to build up this formula to calculate the number of month difference and we will give you reward points!
Edited by: Kevin Smith on Mar 18, 2008 1:47 PM

hi Danny,
I only gave an example of 3 columns, but actually, yes, the report can have more than 12 months, e.g. from Jan_1999, Feb_1999, ..., Mar_2011, Apr_2011.
In our simple example of 3 columns for the three consecutive months, if John had (3)(0)(15), then the No. of Months is 2, or the last month value he performed sales and 1st month he performed sales.
You said macro in Excel sheet? Not sure if macro will work on web since we will eventually run the reports on web browser, therefore we still prefer using Formula.
Any idea/solution?
Thanks!

Current month and previous months of fiscal year period data

Hi All,
My requirement is end user will enter month ie (fiscal year period ) and in report my requiremnt is to show data in two columns 1.Current month data and
2.April till date.
Please let me know how to do this and please send the coding to be done in CMOS.
Regards

Hi,
In your query, you should have following object :
in filters:
fiscal period object, with an user entry variable on it (UE_MONTH)
in rows/ratios:
Current month column, with your KF and a restriction on 0calmonth2 with an customer exit variable on it (ie: CE_VAR1)
same for April column. (CE_VAR2)
in your customer exit, CMOD, step 2, add these two cases :
WHEN 'CE_VAR1'.
READ TABLE i_t_var_range WITH KEY vnam = 'UE_MONTH' INTO
                   intern_range.
CONCATENATE intern_range-low(6) sy-datum+4(2) INTO l_s_range-low.
l_s_range-sign   = 'I'.
l_s_range-opt    = 'EQ'.
APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
Same for April, add a new case and just replace sy-datum+4(2) by '04'.
Hope it helps,

Variable for Fiscal Year Period in cube "0ECCS_C01" - Urgent

Hi all,
I have created a query based on cube "0ECCS_C01". I have restriced the characterstic " Fiscal Year Period" on "Period/Fiscal Year (Single Value Entry, Required)" variable. Output of the query are just 2 numbers : sum of "cumulative value GC" and sum of "period value gc" for given period. This query is working fine in query designer. The variable takes input in following form "001.2008". I have checked that in analyzer that the 'key' value of the variable is in this format "001.2008".
Now in VC , when i place "001.2008" in start point coding for fiscal year, it is giving error. Can any one please tell me that why it is throwing an error.I have given the same format as i gave in query designer. or shud i give period in some other format??
Please respond.
Regards,
Aisha Ishrat
ICI Pakistan Ltd.

Hi,
can you give us further information about the data type in the cube resp. the infoobject, which is used in the cube for the fiscal year/period?
Maybe you can try 0002008. Can you check which values you can enter when you execute the query in the web, so that the value helps for the variable comes up?
Best Regards
Marcel
