Let $G$ be a finite group. We will say that $M$ and $S$ form a textsl{complete splitting} (textsl{splitting}) of $G$ if every element (nonzero element) $g$ of $G$ has a unique representation of the form $g=ms$ with $min M$ and $sin S$, and $0$ has a such representation (while $0$ has no such representation). In this paper, we determine the structures of complete splittings of finite abelian groups. In particular, for complete splittings of cyclic groups our description is more specific. Furthermore, we show some results for existence and nonexistence of complete splittings of cyclic groups and find a relationship between complete splittings and splittings for finite groups.
