Last updated: September 30, 2026

Available with any of the following subscriptions, except where noted:

Set an account’s fiscal year to match your company’s financial calendar. This ensures that fiscal quarters, goals, forecasts, CRM filters, and reports use the same time periods your business uses for planning and performance tracking.

For example, if your fiscal year runs from July 1 to June 30, setting your fiscal year to July-June lets you filter records by the correct fiscal quarter and track sales goals and forecasts against your company’s actual reporting periods.

The contacts dashboard will now display only the contacts who have been created so far in this fiscal quarter. 

Reports

  2. In the date picker field, select the Use fiscal year checkbox.
