You can create another Fiscal Year Variant with the information that you want to be customize, and this variant you will be able to assign to a company code.

Before you assign this new variant to a company code please be sure that none of the information that you already posted in this company code will be affected, this information you may review it with your consultant on-site.

Please refer to the following notes also:

Hi Atul, if one year of a fiscal year variant has less posting periods that the others, it is called a shortened fiscal year.  Define the Fiscal year variant in OB29, define first year as year specific, from next year you can define it as year independent.

Hope this helps.
