Date title function based on fiscal date pattern?

[USEJ]

Hi list,

We have a problem with the default User defined Date Title function
(B8300007). We use it to display the date in our financial statements
reports.

Our fiscal date pattern is not based on month calendar but on a 4-5-4
weeks basis. This involve that the end of a month may be at a date that is
at the beginning of the next month. Example, the end of the month of May
2001 is on June 2nd 2001.

That is, we have a problem with the defaut User defined Date Title. It
doesn't consider the fiscal date pattern but the text that is entered in
the date title month file for the specific period number in F83110. For
example, the period 12 is equal to May, same if the fiscal date pattern for
a year may end in June...

Denver can't help us because the Date title function does what it is
supposed to do. Does anybody know another more dynamic date title
function that is based on the fiscal date pattern of the company?

Thanks for your help.

Have you used the Program P83110 on menu G1041 which allows you to change
the Month names in F83110.

This program allows you to enter the Month Name you want assigned to each
period based on the fiscal date pattern you have setup.

Therefore if period 12 ends June 2, 2001 you can assign the word May or
June as the text for period 12 and do it by date pattern.


You can also use P83100 on the same menu. This determines how the wording
of the Date Title sentence is formed.


If you've already looked at all this send me your fiscal pattern setup and
I'll try to think of something else.
