Updating the Fiscal Calendar Name

When Customer Care creates a standard fiscal calendar for your company, by default the fiscal calendar name is suffixed automatically with the end year for that fiscal year. For example, a fiscal calendar with a year starting in 2039 and year ending 2040 is called Fiscal Calendar 2040.

If your company requires an alternate naming convention to accommodate using external systems with Oracle CRM On Demand, you can configure the fiscal year naming format so that all standard fiscal calendar names, and fiscal period names, are suffixed with either the end year or the start year of the fiscal year.

NOTE: You can specify a calendar name while you define a custom fiscal calendar, however you cannot modify names for custom fiscal calendars once defined. Changing the name format for fiscal calendars does not impact the end or start dates for fiscal years or fiscal periods.
