   Here is my new update. In this update of mine you can know how to get current fiscal year in CRM on the basis of CRM fiscal year settings.

   Normally fiscal year starts on 1 April to 31 March, but CRM 2011 provides the feature to set our custom fiscal period because fiscal period may differ organization to organization, so there may be need of custom fiscal period, and if custom fiscal period exist then i am sure there will need of current fiscal year. Unfortunately CRM does not stores current fiscal year, so you have to calculate current fiscal year.So in this blog you can get current fiscal year.

Step 1:-  Click on Settings tab.

Step 2:-  Open fiscal year year setting.

Step 3:-  Set the start date and other setting regarding fiscal year.

    //Get Current Date
    var today = new Date();
    var todayDate = today.getMonth() + 1 + "/" + today.getDate() + "/" + today.getFullYear();

    //For rollup 11
    var xml = "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>" +
        "<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\" xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\">" +

    var xmlHttpRequest = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
    xmlHttpRequest.Open("POST", "/mscrmservices/2007/CrmService.asmx", false);
    xmlHttpRequest.setRequestHeader("SOAPAction", "http://schemas.microsoft.com/crm/2007/WebServices/RetrieveMultiple");
    xmlHttpRequest.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8");
    xmlHttpRequest.setRequestHeader("Content-Length", xml.length);
    xmlHttpRequest.send(xml);

    var result = xmlHttpRequest.responseXML.xml;

    var doc = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument");
    doc.async = false;
    doc.loadXML(result);

    if (doc.selectSingleNode("//q1:fiscalcalendarstart") != null) {

        var startDate = doc.selectSingleNode("//q1:fiscalcalendarstart").attributes[0].nodeTypedValue

        //Organisation Fiscal start date
        var sDate = new Date(startDate);

        var currentDate = new Date(todayDate);

        if (startDate <= todayDate) {

            var diff = currentDate.getFullYear() - sDate.getFullYear();

            var CurrentFiscalYear = (parseInt(sDate.getFullYear()) + parseInt(diff));

            // alert(CurrentFiscalYear);


        }
        else {

            var diff = sDate.getFullYear() - currentDate.getFullYear();

            if (parseInt(diff) == 0) {

                var CurrentFiscalYear = (parseInt(sDate.getFullYear()) - parseInt(1));
                //alert(CurrentFiscalYear);

            }
            else {
                var CurrentFiscalYear = (parseInt(sDate.getFullYear()) - parseInt(diff));
                //alert(CurrentFiscalYear);
            }
        }
    }
}
