Defining the calendar

The calendar defines the time structure used throughout the entire Infor d/EPM business application.
  1. Select Calendar Settings.
  2. Select the start year and end year.
    Note: We recommend that you specify an end year that is at least ten years from the current year. The earliest start year is 2000. The latest end year is 2100.
  3. Optionally, if your fiscal year differs from the calendar year, select Use Fiscal Year and select the start month of the fiscal year. Select one of these options, according to how your organization references its fiscal years:
    Option Description
    Previous Year The labels of the fiscal year's periods start in the year prior to the calendar's start year. For example, if the start year is 2019 and the fiscal year starts in April, then the first period of the fiscal year is April 2018 and its last is March 2019.
    Same Year The labels of the fiscal year's periods start in the year in which the calendar starts. For example, if the start year is 2019 and the fiscal year starts in April, then the first period of the fiscal year is April 2019 and its last is March 2020.
    Whether the fiscal year is period-based or calendar-based is determined by the value of the int_RegularCalendarImport custom setting.
  4. Click Save.
