Close/Open Balance Sheet Batch Job

Closes or opens a balance sheet for a fiscal year.

Additional Information

At the end of every fiscal year, Italian companies need to analyze how their business activities are performed. This analysis is basically a calculation of the difference between costs and revenues. If the costs are higher than the revenues, there is a loss in the company business. Reversely, if the revenues are higher than the costs, the company has realized a profit.
