Fiscal Calendars

Fiscal calendar settings help ensure that time-based analysis in GoodData reflects how your organization operates. You can enable fiscal calendars and adjust week definitions to align reporting with financial and regional standards.

Enable Fiscal Calendar

Fiscal calendars align time-based analysis with your organization’s financial year instead of the standard calendar year. They are useful for reporting on fiscal years, quarters, and months that do not start in January.

Fiscal calendars can be enabled either globally for the entire organization or individually for selected workspaces, depending on your needs.

Organization

When enabled at the organization level, fiscal calendars become available to all workspaces. Each workspace must still re-save its logical data model to apply the change.

Steps:

1. Go to Settings > Localization > Calendars and click Change.

   
   

2. Toggle Fiscal calendars on and click Apply.

   
   

   Resave Your Logical Data Model

   After enabling fiscal calendars, you must re-save the logical data model for each workspace where you want to use them. This step applies the calendar changes to that workspace.

3. Optionally change what month your fiscal year starts in and customize how certain period labels are displayed in visualizations:

   
   

Workspace

If you do not want to enable fiscal calendars organization-wide, you can enable them for an individual workspace only. This is useful when different teams or regions require different calendar configurations.

Steps:

1. Go to the target workspace and open Workspace Settings.
2. Navigate to Localization > Calendars.
3. Toggle Fiscal calendars on and click Apply.
4. Re-save the logical data model for that workspace to apply the calendar changes.

Only the selected workspace is affected; other workspaces in the organization remain unchanged.
