Hi Folks,
Since it's the first day of the new federal fiscal year, and I needed this
anyway, I just wrote a quick udf to return the current fiscal year. Here it
is for anyone else that works for the government and might want it:
<cfscript>
/**
* Returns the federal fiscal year.
*
* @param DateTime Date/time object you want tested. Defaults to now().
* @return Returns a numeric value.
* @author Deanna Schneider ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
* @version 1, July 1, 2002
*/
function GetFiscalYear() {
var datetime = 0;
var month = 0;
if (ArrayLen(Arguments) is 0) {
datetime = Now();
month = month(datetime);
}
else {
if (IsDate(Arguments[1])) {
datetime = Arguments[1];
month = month(datetime);
} else {
datetime = Now();
}
}
if (listfind("1,2,3,4,5,6", month)) {
return YEAR(datetime);
}
else {
return YEAR(DATEADD('yyyy', 1, datetime));
}
}
</cfscript>
Of course, updates/additions welcomed. I thought about making the definition
of fiscal year as a parameter, but I haven't gotten around to it, since I
don't need that.
