As a 5 year old idea, is this still "future consideration"? We get considerable confusion from stakeholders that are used to a "FY21Q1" convention.

Agreed. We have a split fiscal year and the date presentation generates unnecessary discussion.

Definitely custom - our FY runs Aug to July and having custom fields would be required
