Hi

I am creating Account Schedule report and I have doubt how to use formulas in column Comparison Period Formula in Column Type setup. I have a report where I don't know what should I put in Actual PY Period 4, and Actual YTD 2022. Anybody helps me with formulas of these dates? 

I have the same question (0)

    Hi, hope the following can give you some hints.

    Abbreviation Description
    P Period.
    LP Last period of a fiscal year, half-year, or quarter.
    CP Current period of a fiscal year, half-year, or quarter. Use CP in formulas to set the period that starts or ends the formula. For example, FY[1..CP] denotes the time from the beginning of the current fiscal year to the current period.
    FY Fiscal year. For example, FY[1..3] denotes the first quarter of the current fiscal year.

    Examples of formulas:

    Formula Description
    <Blank> Current period.
    -1P Previous period.
    -1FY[1..LP] Entire previous fiscal year.
    -1FY Current period in previous fiscal year.
    -1FY[1..3] First quarter of previous fiscal year.
    -1FY[1..CP] From the beginning of the previous fiscal year to the current period in the previous fiscal year, including both periods.
    -1FY[CP..LP] From the current period in previous fiscal year to the last period of the previous fiscal year, including both periods.
