# Fiscal Year Support

In the xViz Gantt Chart, we can configure the starting month of the Fiscal year as needed.

In different countries the Fiscal year cycle is different.

**Steps to configure:**

1. Go to the **Format Pane** -> **Fiscal Year Type** and select **Fiscal** option to configure.
2. Go to the **Format Pane** -> **Fiscal Year - Starting Month** and select the month which is the starting month of the desired Fiscal Year.

In the below example, both the charts have different Fiscal years, one starts in the April month, and one starts in the May month.
