Use
Irrespective of how you have defined your fiscal year, you can also
use special periods. Special periods subdivide the year-end closing
period. They therefore merely divide the last posting period into
several closing periods. This enables you to create several
supplementary financial statements.
A fiscal year usually has 12 posting periods. In General Ledger
Accounting, you can define up to four special periods.

Note
If you do not need 12 posting periods, you can use the posting
periods that are not required as special periods. If you use these
additional closing periods, you must specify the number you require
in the field No. special periods. When defining the fiscal year
variants. You cannot exceed a maximum of 16 periods.
Integration
When posting to special periods, you must take the following into
consideration:
The posting date must fall within the last regular posting period.
You have to enter the special periods in the document header in
the Period field, since the special periods cannot be determined
automatically by the system.
