Topics Covered
We're going to start out by learning how to calculate a simple fiscal year. We'll look at a company with a FY starting June 1st. You'll learn about the MONTH, YEAR, and IIF functions.
Next, we'll learn how to calculate totals by fiscal year using both an aggregate query and a report sorting & grouping level.
What happens if the company's fiscal year doesn't start on the 1st of a month? We'll learn how to write our own custom VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) function to calculate fiscal year data based on any start date. You'll learn about functions, parameters, return values, nested if/then statements, and more.
Finally, we'll learn how to manage a database that has to be able to calculate totals for multiple companies with different fiscal year start and end dates at the same time. This is great for accountants, attorneys, consultants, and large financial departments.
This is the perfect seminar for anyone who needs to learn how to perform calculations and generate reports based on fiscal years in their access databases. Of course, if you have any questions about whether or not this seminar is for you, please feel free to contact me. I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have.
