I have 2 fiscal calendars

FiscalCalendar1 having years: 2016,2017 and FiscalCalendar2 containing years: 2015,2016,2017.

Both have 14 periods. 1 opening, 1 closing and 12 month periods Jan to Dec.

In one of the companies, FiscalCalendar1 is selected in Ledger setup. But now I want period of 2015 in that company. Shall I create year 2015 and its periods in FiscalCalendar1 or just change the calendar to FiscalCalendar2 in ledger setup considering both the fiscal calendars have same setup but just differ by an additional year?

There are lot of transactions in the company, 100k+.

Thanks Ludwig. Did that. It took approx 5 mins for the Ledger periods to recalculate. Ran it as a batch job so it ran in the background.

Hi,

The easiest solution to seems selecting the FiscalCalendar2 in the ledger form. When doing that AX will ask you to recalculate ledger balances, which might take a while.

Best regards,

Ludwig
