When you divide periods in the asset calendar, you must set up months and quarters at the same time, and you must set them up in sequence. For example, if there are 12 periods that all have month 1 and quarter 1, you have to change the last month to 2 and change all months from there to the beginning to 2. Then you have to change the second to last month to 3, and change all the months from there to the beginning to 3, and so on. Then you need to follow the same process for quarters.
If a year is generated with more than 12 periods, the periods will be divided by 12. The result will determine the number of periods in each month by default with rounding in the twelfth month.
