Effective Line Items rename during Fiscal Year changes

Hello ,

For Every Fiscal year development, we used to copy the models and rename the line items in the modules / dashboards from FY21 to FY22 etc.

Later it was discussed with the user and renamed CY, CY-1, CY-2 (CY = Current Year), but the users are getting confused with these CY terms.

Have anyone tried a different format to reduce the redundant work of renaming and also having Users satisfied with more meaningful names / style ?

Thank you in Advance!

Hey,

I've not personally worked on this scenario. If users are unable to understand what CY, CY-1, ... u can publish KPI Cards on dashboard. This may provide better clarity to the users and it will update dynamically.

Thanks & Regards,

Maybe you can use alternative like TY(This year) , LY(Last Year), LLY(Last Last Year ) etc. and in a landing page mention in a text like eg when switchover is done so F22 - TY , F21 - LY and so on.
