Converting dates into their respective fiscal quarters

[Guest]

Hi All,

I have gotten this formula thru the help of someone. It converts dates into
their respective fiscal quarters. The formula is:

="Q"&INDEX({4;1;2;3},INT((MONTH(A2)+2)/3))

However, this formula uses a fiscal year which starts on April 1st. I need
the formula to start on 1st Nov as its start of a fiscal year. Can anyone
advice on this, thanks.

I find this formula easy to modify:
="FY"&YEAR(A1)-(MONTH(A1)<11)&"--Q"&INT(1+MOD(MONTH(A1)-11,12)/3)

November 1, 2007 is quarter 1 of 2007?

Oooops... that last one would start with October, sorry!
="Q"&INDEX({2;3;4;1},INT((MONTH(A2)+1)/3))
This one starts Q1 on 11/1.
