Non-blocking - No control is performed for the presence of non-posted movements over the period being closed.

In this case, the closing process is not carried out.

Blocking by period - When each period is closed, whether or not it is the last period, the program checks if there are any non-posted movements with a posting date included in the fiscal year period being closed.
