To navigate to Fiscal Period Settings, on the Home page, click Administration, and click Fiscal Period. The Fiscal Period Settings page is displayed. Select the Compile tab. During deployment, a user with Administrator privileges can set up Fiscal Periods using the same procedure.
2. On the Compile tab, select a range for a Year. Click Start Date and select the required value. Then click End Date and select the required values. Click Compile.
   A Calendar of fiscal periods for the legal entity for the selected date range is generated.
