As a chief accountant, I want dated financial actions constrained by open periods so that closed reporting cannot change without an approved process.

Post resolves the document date to a valid period. Unpost/reversal validates source and linked periods. Year close requires the earnings account. Exceptions/backdating authority require business-owner confirmation.
