it works.create a few time periods of each type you'll be using as exemplars then use the above XOG.this will create a template that you can then create more to XOG back in.one thing to be mindful of is you need to create consecutive (prior or next) time periods against what is already there.eg. you need to add a previous year, start with December and go backwards. add a following hear, start with January.you may receive a FATAL error XOG-3642: New periods must not create a gap with the existing periods.before you re-XOG, check the fiscal time periods to make sure what you expect to see is or isn't there. thanks to Martink. If i could give kudos I would, but this is not my thread.This is the second time that the user community has come up with very useful XOG's that are not included in the XOG client download. I am curious as to the original source of this XOG. I have been told by CA tech support that it was impossible to XOG in fiscal time periods, but that was from a tier-1 technician, and many is the time where tier-1 "you can't do that" advice has been contradicted by senior SE's and architect's who provided working solutions.
