Dynamics won't Calculate new fiscal periods

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hello,

I am trying to create a new fiscal year for 2012.  I enter in my year, first day, last day, number of periods, and hit 'calculate' - but nothing happens.  When I try to close the fiscal period setup window I receive a message telling me to  'recalculate first'.  The only way to get past this is to use task manager to close Dynamics.

I have created new fiscal periods for 7 other companies without issue and following the same method, so I don't think I have done anything wrong.

 

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Joe

    Hi Marcy,

    There are a number of articles about deleting the contents of SY40100 and SY40101 and rebuilding the fiscal periods from with dynamics.  I tried this, but it didn't work for me.  I was able to create the periods through SQL, and everything works fine - but if I try to create fiscal periods from within dynamics i still receive errors.

    I suggest following the articles on deleting the contents of SY40100 & SY40101 and rebuilding the periods from within Dynamics as this will permanently solve your problem.

    If this doesn't work (as in my situation) you will need to create the periods within SQL.

    Insert a new fiscal year into SY40101 (you can use the previous year as a template - make sure the new year HISTORYR =0)

    Once the new year is created, go to dynamics and see if you can create the fiscal periods (I was not able to) - but it is worth a shot.

    I then ran a query on SY40100 restricting the results to my previous year, exported the results, replaced all instances of my previous year with my new year, and inserted the data back into SY40100.

    That worked for me.
