    Hi, I checked the code in the article and it seems to work, but sorry, I don’t know much about 4-4-5 accounting period, you can try to upgrade the code below, maybe it can be used directly.

    Converting C/AL objects to .al format (Txt2Al Conversion Tool)

    The best method that I know of is to manually create the periods.

    Thanks mr yzhums

    I wish BC had this function out of the box like many other ERP systems.

    I saw below article that created C/AL code for this but not sure how I can converted to AL. Can I add this to my wish list that you maybe cover in your blog and create a app that anyone can use (similar to this blogpost that shows some download)?

    Thanks
