Collateral and legal responsibility accounts will have credit score amounts
Income and costs accounts will have respectively credit score and debit amounts, however these accounts will be closed after the trial stability is prepared and then accounting time period is started

Balances from the accounts will be used to prepare trial stability, however this can be done only after the time period-finish modifying records were recorded and published into the accounts correctly.
