SQL queries for fiscal years and periods in Dynamics GP

Often when creating reports we’re asked to show the current year vs. last year or select the current fiscal year or period as a date range for values returned. Sometimes dates can be hard-coded, especially when the fiscal year is the calendar year. But some reports can be made more dynamic by using the fiscal periods set up in Dynamics GP. It can also help simply to see what is set up in GP at times, so that you know how to best structure the report. Below are two queries that can help with this.

All fiscal years:

SELECT
   YEAR1 [Year],
   FSTFSCDY First_Day,
   LSTFSCDY Last_Day,
   NUMOFPER Number_of_Periods,
   CASE HISTORYR
     WHEN 0 THEN 'Open Year'
     WHEN 1 THEN 'Historical Year'
     END Year_Status
FROM SY40101
ORDER BY YEAR1

Sample results:

Fiscal periods for the current year:

SELECT
   D.PERIODID Period_Number,
   D.PERNAME Period_Name,
   D.PERIODDT Starting_Date,
   D.PERDENDT Ending_Date,
   D.YEAR1 Fiscal_Year
FROM SY40100 D
INNER JOIN
   SY40101 H
   ON H.YEAR1 = D.YEAR1
WHERE
   D.FORIGIN = 1 AND D.PERIODID <> 0
   and GETDATE() between H.FSTFSCDY and H.LSTFSCDY
ORDER BY D.PERIODID

You can change the line in blue above if you need to see a different year. Sample results:
