A fiscal year is a period used for calculating annual financial statements in businesses and other organizations. In most cases, fiscal years last 12 months. You just have to define what is the last day of your fiscal year in the accounting settings. By default, it is set on the 31st of December.

However, there might be some exceptions. For example, if it is the first fiscal year of your business, it could last more or less than 12 months. In this case, some additional configuration is required.

Go in accounting ‣ configuration ‣ settings and activate the fiscal years.

You can then configure your fiscal years in accounting ‣ configuration ‣ fiscal years.
