NAME

       LedgerSMB::DBObject::EOY - End of Year handling module

SYNOPSYS

       This class contains methods for end of year entry.

BASIC PROPERTIES

       end_date specifies the end date for a closed period.
       reference specifies the gl reference field associated with the account closure
       description specifies the gl description field associated with the account closure
       retention_acc_id specifies the account id used as a retaining account.

METHODS

       $eoy->checkpoint_only();
           This creates account checkpoints at $eoy->{end_date}.  This has two uses: 1)  Can be
           used to "close" books without zeroing income/expense accounts.  This prevents data
           from being inserted for earlier dates.

           2)  This can be used to improve performance by creating a "lookback" point.

       $eoy->reopen_books()
           This reverses any end of year transaction on $eoy->{end_date}, and deletes checkpoints
           for that day.

       $eoy->close_books()
           Requires all properies in BASIC PROPERTIES to be set.  This creates a gl yearend
           transaction, and moves income/expenses to the selected equity account for retained
           earnings.

       $eoy->list_earnings_accounts
           Returns a list of equity accounts, and sets $eoy->{earnings_accounts} to a list of
           hashrefs.  These are used to select retained earnings accounts in closing books.
