Hello.

You can create a new calendar but you cannot replace the one being used. To do that you will need also to create a new set of books and associate it to the new calendar. Then you have to transfer all existing account balances to the new set of books.

You question is to create "new calendar" which is confusing. But what I understood that you want to create new periods for next year so you can just create periods. Let us know when there is any problem. Better export an existing and change dates and names and upload new one. thanks

Hello.

Just as Admin said, you need to open the new periods. Navigate to Setup/Financials/Calendars/Accounting, query you accountitng calendar and insert new periods.
