Re: Fw: fiscal year change

Ken,

I've only worked with two that did that, a fruit and produce distributor
and a chicken processor.  I was being simplistic in my original answer,
put period 01 in calendar year 2000 is and always will be period 01 in
calendar year 2000.

Now what fiscal period and year that represents is subject to change
without notice. <g>

(BTW, the corporate definition in WYATTERP allows you to specify 12 or
13 accounting periods and the fiscal start period/month)
</shameless plug>
