Variant Principle

1. Variant Variant Principle: Principle: A 3 step step method method to assign assign properties properties to one / more objec objects ts 2. Steps: ○ Define variant ( K4 Fiscal year variant) ○ Determine values for the variant defined: Variant properties ○ Assign variant to objects : Assign variant K4 to object company code

Fiscal Year   1. Fiscal Year Variant: ○ Define a fiscal year with posting periods Fiscal year contain posting periods + Special posting periods ○ ○ Maximum periods = 16 System derive period for a document from the posting date ○ ○ Special posting period: ○ Used for yearend closing transactions. Posting date falls in last period, can post in special posting period ○ E.g.: FY with PP = 12 and special period = 4. Transaction date falls in 12th posting period can post in 4 th special (16 th) period. 2. Year Indep Independe endent nt Fiscal Fiscal Year Year Variant: Variant: FYV uses same number of periods each year Posting period start and ends on the same date every year • •

Can be Calendar Year .Here PP = 12 months of the year Can be non calendar year Here PP # 12 months of the year. PP can be from 1 to 16. ○ ○ Need to assign end date for each posting period ○ Need to assign indicator -/+ as required ○ e.g Apr to Mar. For Jan, Feb & Mar year shift of -1 as belongs to old fiscal year
