Finalise an SMSF annual return
finalise_smsf_returnFreezes SMSF tax return figures into a snapshot and locks the financial year, failing with a blocker list until all sections and checks pass. Never lodges the return.
Instructions
Finalise the tax return: freezes every figure into a snapshot so later ledger changes no longer move it, and locks the financial year. Requires every section confirmed, no blocking gaps and no blocking checks (see get_return_checks); otherwise fails with the list of blockers. Ask the user before calling. Declarations and lodgement are then done by people in the web app; unfinalising is web-only too. Never lodges. confirm must be true — only pass it after the user has said to finalise this return.
