Configuring Global Variables
To configure global variables, start by navigating to the Administration menu by clicking on the wrench icon in the upper right-hand corner of the main user interface. Then click on the Global Variables tab in the Administration menu.
Now find the @@UDM_FISCALYEAR_END_BGN entry in the Global Variables list. This global variable lets you configure the Start Year and End Year values of your Fiscal Year.
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
The possible values of the @@UDM_FISCALYEAR_END_BGN global variable are as follows:
1 = Start Year
2 = End Year
3 = The year value that is listed in the corresponding Fiscal Year table
0 = The variable's default value; it can have a different meaning depending on which ERP you are using (see below):
Sage X3 and Sage Intacct
0 = Start Year if the first Fiscal Year period is 1-6 or End Year if the first period is 7-12
All Other ERPs
0 and 3 have the same meaning.
