Calculate fiscal year for a text label in powerapp

Report

Posted on by ObiRickC137

I'm trying to update a Text Label to calculate the current fiscal year, as well as one for the past fiscal year. The form as rich text entries, and one of the text boxes asks for info on the current fiscal year, another asks about progress completing left over goals from the past fiscal year. Our fiscal year is July 1 to June 30.

I'm a SharePoint person by trade, Power Apps is new to me. This is the formula I wrote for a calculated column for current fiscal year: =IF(MONTH(Created)>6,"FY"&TEXT(Created,"yy")&"/"&RIGHT(YEAR(Created)+1,2),"FY"&RIGHT(YEAR(Created)-1,2)&"/"&TEXT(Created,"yy")). The result is FY 23/24

I got as far as posting the current year in Power Apps, but I cannot figure out the way to code years.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi @ObiRickC137

This is a example of the current fiscal year:
If( Month(Today()) > 6, "FY" & Text(Today(), "yy") & "/" & Text(DateAdd(Today(), 1, TimeUnit.Years), "yy"), "FY" & Text(DateAdd(Today(), -1, TimeUnit.Years), "yy") & "/" & Text(Today(), "yy") )

If you have any questions or feedback, please let me know. Have a great day! 😊

@SpongYe Thank you so much, it worked perfectly!

By any chance could you help me update it to be also for the last fiscal year? I tried modifying what you wrote, I got it to say 22/24, but looking to also have 22/23.

Here you go:
If( Month(Today()) > 6, "FY" & Text(DateAdd(Today(), -1, TimeUnit.Years), "yy") & "/" & Text(Today(), "yy"), "FY" & Text(DateAdd(Today(), -2, TimeUnit.Years), "yy") & "/" & Text(DateAdd(Today(), -1, TimeUnit.Years), "yy") )

Hi

I have a similar scenario but I want users to be able to choose the FY both past and present as they need to enter data against a given financial year. Any suggestions on how best to achieve this in a Power App.

Thanks in advance.
