Get the first date of a fiscal period

We can find the first and last dates of the current Fiscal Period by using two funtional modules.

First, we have to call 'DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT' importing sy-datum and Fiscal year variant.

Then call 'PERIOD_DAY_DETERMINE' importing the outputs from the previous functional module.


CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT'
       EXPORTING
            I_DATE  = SY-DATUM
            I_PERIV = GC_PERIV
       IMPORTING
            E_BUPER = LW_BUPER
            E_GJAHR = LW_GJAHR.

  LW_MONAT = LW_BUPER.

  CALL FUNCTION 'PERIOD_DAY_DETERMINE'
       EXPORTING
            I_GJAHR = LW_GJAHR
            I_MONAT = LW_MONAT
            I_PERIV = GC_PERIV
       IMPORTING
            E_FDAY  = LW_BEGDAT
            E_LDAY  = LW_ENDDAT
