Attention: To align with new corporate security policies, and to match policies adopted by other communities within Oracle, the My Oracle Support Community access requirements will change beginning September 18, 2025. MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

Change Calendar ID for a Detail Ledger

Jul 5, 2018 11:05PM edited Jul 17, 2018 5:06AM in Financial Management - PSFT (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

We have a Ledger Group (FINANCIAL) which has 20 years of activity using a Calendar ID of (DT)

The DT Calendar has historically always been configured as 4 weeks per period so 13 accounting periods

We need to change the Calendar to now be 12 monthly periods

Is it as simple as creating a new Calendar ID e.g. MT which is configured to have 12 accounting periods

Then updating the Detail Ledger Calendar ID in Ledgers for a Unit to be MT

With no impact on historical transactions and all new GL transactions just posting based on the new calendar/period configuration?

Obviously there is issues with prior year comparative reporting
