Hi all,
 
There is a P&L with the column header as below.
As the end user could change the year in the filter, the year in the column is dynamics.
How is the column definition be setup like this?
 
Hence, how do I setup to show financial figure in last entire year in the column definition?
 
Thanks.

    Hello ,
     
    this is done with Account Schedules (Financial Reports) using relative period formulas, not fixed years. The column is defined with a Comparison Period Formula (for example last full year), so when the user changes the Date Filter, Business Central recalculates both the amounts and the year shown in the column header automatically. To show the entire previous year, you configure the column as Net Change and use a relative formula like last fiscal year (e.g. -1FY or equivalent based on your fiscal setup). You never hard-code the year — it’s fully dynamic.
