Fiscal Year and Calendar Year Reporting
Sales Analysis reporting is based on a 12-month year. The default mode is calendar year reporting. In this mode, all references to fiscal year are regarded as calendar year. Fiscal year reporting may be used if:
The fiscal year consists of exactly 12 periods, and
Each fiscal period corresponds to a calendar month.
In such a case, Fiscal Year Change (7.17.22) defines the calendar month (1 through 12) that corresponds to the first period of a fiscal year.
