I wasn't sure how to interpret Martin's reply. At first, I thought he was saying that he's not aware of circumstances where the FY != calendar year. But then I realized that he he was just stating that beancount doesn't have a concept of FY.
As you say (and I'm sure as Martin is full aware), the FY often differs. The tax year is also different in some countries, e.g. in the UK it starts on April 6. What would the best way be to implement FY in beancount? * Oon-Ee Ng <ngoonee.t...@gmail.com> [2020-03-17 14:23]: > Fairly common for some organizations to have financial years starting on > (say) 1st August or something similar.
