Create fiscal periods

Run the Create fiscal periods process to create all fiscal periods of a year at the same time. If you have specified the year, the number of periods, and the start date of the fiscal year, a line for each period of the fiscal year is automatically created on the Fiscal periods form.

If the periods for the specified year already exist, the process is not executed again. A message will appear indicating that no lines have been created.

You can choose either 12 or 13 as the number of periods. To use more or fewer fiscal periods, or to change the end dates of particular fiscal periods, adjust the relevant lines on the Fiscal periods form.
