2 years we shifted our FY 6 months, and we deleted the current FY and then add a 6 month year and the following full year. Deleting the fiscal periods, won't touch posted transaction. We had to run Verify Balances after we made the change, but after that was well. The Verify Balances basically reassigns all transactions the the "new" correct periods.
I highly recommend during it in a test db 1st and check that it does what you want it do.
Here is the information I received from Support at the time:
Â
-Delete the current 2014 calendar and say yes to the Verify Balances message (Nothing can be posting when Verify Balances is running!!!)
-Create a new 2014 calendar with 6 periods for July – December.
-Create your new 12 month calendar for January – December. If you want it to also be 2014 then it needs a fiscal year suffix. If it will be 2015 no suffix is needed.
-Run Verify Balances again once everything is complete.
-The journal with the incorrect date will be reassigned to the new calendar once everything is done.
