Best way to increment weeks based on fiscal start year

Hi Folks -

I'm looking for the best way to to increment fiscal weeks - allow me to explain.

At my one client, 10/01/17 was the beginning if year fiscal year 2018.
Each week, I need to manage a unique set of variable that are updated in my application - they are called substitution variables.

I manage them (manually) in a comma delimited format, and then run a ksh over them to extract both columns and spool them to an "*.mxl" file in a specific import format.

For instance:

Code:

curwk_d,'wk04 fy18';
pw1_d,'wk03 fy18';
pw2_d,'wk02 fy18';
pw3_d,'wk01 fy18';
pw4_d,'wk53 fy17';
p5w_d,'wk52 fy17';
p6w_d,'wk51 fy17';
p7w_d,'wk50 fy17';
p8w_d,'wk49 fy17';
p9w_d,'wk48 fy17';
p10w_d,'wk47 fy17';
p11w_d,'wk46 fy17';
p12w_d,'wk45 fy17';

And then the import format is as such:

Code:

alter system set variable curwk_d 'wk04 fy18';
alter system set variable pw1_d 'wk03 fy18';
alter system set variable pw2_d 'wk02 fy18';
alter system set variable pw3_d 'wk01 fy18';
alter system set variable pw4_d 'wk53 fy17';
alter system set variable pw5_d 'wk52 fy17';
alter system set variable pw6_d 'wk51 fy17';
alter system set variable pw7_d 'wk50 fy17';
alter system set variable pw8_d 'wk49 fy17';
alter system set variable pw9_d 'wk48 fy17';
alter system set variable pw10_d 'wk47 fy17';
alter system set variable pw11_d 'wk46 fy17';
alter system set variable pw12_d 'wk45 fy17';

Then, the "*.mxl" file is read into the target system using a certain utility called from a shell script, but I digress.

As you can see, there are 13 variables. 1 is the current week (from start of fiscal) and the 12 additional previous week variables.

For instance, current week is the upcoming week, which is the 4th week since start of fiscal, as indicated by wk04.

My question is, is there an easy way to manage this and increment as necessary each week (on Saturday) when this is run?

Thank you!

variable

variable(n)						       Tcl Built-In Commands						       variable(n)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       variable - create and initialize a namespace variable

SYNOPSIS

       variable ?name value...? name ?value?
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  is  normally used within a namespace eval command to create one or more variables within a namespace.  Each variable name is
       initialized with value.	The value for the last variable is optional.

       If a variable name does not exist, it is created.  In this case, if value is specified, it is assigned to the newly created  variable.	If
       no  value  is  specified,  the new variable is left undefined.  If the variable already exists, it is set to value if value is specified or
       left unchanged if no value is given.  Normally, name is unqualified (does not include the names of  any	containing  namespaces),  and  the
       variable  is  created in the current namespace.	If name includes any namespace qualifiers, the variable is created in the specified names-
       pace.  If the variable is not defined, it will be visible to the namespace which command, but not to the info exists command.

       If the variable command is executed inside a Tcl procedure, it creates local variables linked to the corresponding namespace variables (and
       therefore  these  variables are listed by info locals.)	In this way the variable command resembles the global command, although the global
       command only links to variables in the global namespace.  If any values are given, they are used to modify the  values  of  the	associated
       namespace variables.  If a namespace variable does not exist, it is created and optionally initialized.

       A name argument cannot reference an element within an array.  Instead, name should reference the entire array, and the initialization value
       should be left off.  After the variable has been declared, elements within the array can be set using ordinary set or array commands.
