Using Quarters

Click the Quarter check-box.

If Fiscal Year is enabled, you may choose to refer to Fiscal Yearquarters, rather than stick to the calendar year, by clicking the related check-box.

You can customize the Quarter entity description (in a similar manner as done for the Fiscal Year description field) using the variables nn representing the quarter number and, in case fiscal Year is enabled, yy and YY representing the initial and final calendar year.
