Report group by Fiscal Years

Avatar

Level 2

Hi! I have a project report that I want to group by fiscal year (July 1 - June 30).

Is it possible to create a grouping to organize projects by their Actual Start Date, which each sub-group being an FY? There does not seem to be a default, so is this a text-mode thing?

 

Other things to note:
We do not use financials.

Our projects do have an FY23/FY24/F25 at the beginning of each project name.

Hi Alvina,

 

Yes, you can certainly achieve this by adding a grouping for actualStartDate under the Groupings tab of your report (In edit mode). Then you should see a dropdown just below the grouping : "Group Dates by" select year in this dropdown and you should have what you're looking for.

 

Hope this helps 🙂

In order to group by fiscal year, you would have to configure something in your system that defines your fiscal year. Most customers use a dropdown field picker and force users to select a fiscal year. Since your projects are named in a specific way, you can also use calculated fields to indicate this. Looking at the calculated data expressions page:

you could maybe use LEFT({name},4) but honestly you should test it, especially since you also want to sort by this field.
