Configure Global Variables

To configure global variables:

  1. Access the Administration menu by clicking the wrench icon in the upper right-hand corner of the main user interface.

  2. Click the Global Variables tab on the left.

  3. Look for the @@FISCALYEAR_START_END entry in the Global Variables list. This global variable lets users configure the Start Year and End Year values of their Fiscal Year.

Example  

If a user's First Fiscal Month value is May, the following configurations would be true for their project:

Fiscal Year = May 2021 to April 2022

Start Year = 2021

End Year = 2022

Period 01 = May 2021

Period 12 = April 2022

Note  

In the context of the @@FISCALYEAR_START_END global variable, 1 represents Start Year and 2 represents End Year. By default, its value is 2 (End Year).

Important  

If you change the value of the @@FISCALYEAR_START_END global variable to 1 (Start Year), you must also open the @@CURPERIOD and @@LASTDAYPERIOD global variables and change the value of the StartOrEnd variable to 1 in the Script field. It is essential to the configuration of these three global variables have the same value for Start Year or End Year.
