Just to give a theoretical answer to Frédéric the main problem lies not in the opening entries but in the closing procedure; my question was if there is a used closing procedure other from the one written by the italian-spanish communities.
In Italy and in other coutries (e.g. Germany) accountants usually - close all the income/expense accounts into a net income account, with an entry recorded FY-0 - close the net income account into an equity account, with an entry recorded FY-0 - close all the assets/liabilities account, with an entry recorded FY-0 - open all the assets/liabilities account, with an entry recorded FY-1 In Italy, for reason connected with the accounting tradition the first of the entries I described above is particularly important. So to use Openerp in Italy it's mandatory to have a closing procedure, although we can be flexible in the practical application, for example we could merge the 1 and 2 entries in one and so on...
