Fiscal Year setup in Facebook Prophet

I'm using Facebook's open-source Python library, Prophet, to forecast some expenses. By default, Prophet detects seasonality based on the normal calendar year (Jan - Dec). However, my data is based on fiscal year so the seasonality should be based on Sep - Aug.

I haven't found a good explanation to properly set the fiscal year up in Prophet. Would appreciate any input.
