Period Labels Page of the New Calendar File Wizard

Use this page to define the default labels used for the default calendar sets when the calendar is created. You can select a label type from the list or enter text directly into the field.

You can define labels from the list of label formats, copy them from an existing calendar set, or add a new set with no labels. Any combination of d, m, and y can be used.

Field Description
Sample This field displays the format you select, for example, 01/01/06.
Label Format Use this field to select a label format.

If you select Counter (1, 2, 3), Cobra increments the periods by 1. Lower case c is the reserved value for the counter. 

You can enter text below the Sample {c} field by using quotes. For example, typing “Fiscal Period” c generates the following list:
  • Fiscal Period 1
  • Fiscal Period 2
  • Fiscal Period 3
  • Fiscal Period 4
  • And so on.

If you select Text denoted with quotes, all calendar labels will have the same label as the text entered. Like the Counter (1, 2, 3) method above, the text must be surrounded in quotes. Typing, for example, “Date Interval” generates the following list:

  • Date Interval
  • Date Interval
  • Date Interval
  • Date Interval
  • And so on.
Note: You can change the labels afterwards on the Calendar Sets tab of the Calendar view by clicking Edit Set.
