Huw,

Thanks very much, but still having trouble with the year.

With your formula, the Quarter always seems to work, but the fiscal year
doesn't work properly. For example, 10/1/2005 is the first day of Quarter 1
FY2006, but your formula pulls the year as 2005. Any ideas on fixing the
year issue?

Thx!

Rob, based on the assumption that your date is in Cell A1, I think the
following might work.
=CONCATENATE(IF(MONTH(A1)<4,"Quarter 2",IF(MONTH(A1)<7,"Quarter
3",IF(MONTH(A1)<10,"Quarter 4","Quarter 1")))& " FY"&YEAR(A1))

Unfortunately, I can't get it to show anything other than FY2005, rather
than FY05, but I think it does everything else.

Hope this helps,

Huw.

Hello,

I'm having problems with the following... my company has a 9/30 fiscal year
end. I am trying to create a formula that looks at a date that will be input
and will return the following:
- The fiscal quarter
- the fiscal year.
For example, A2 has a date of 10/28/06. I would like a formula to return
the fiscal quarter and year: Quarter 1 FY06.

Thanks in advance for your help!
