Geert Janssens 3c860737f1 Doxygen - fold business.txt file in the respective source files
The file mostly had short descriptions that were very similar
to the descriptions of business objects it referred to. The
exception was an explanation of how the billing terms and
tax tables handled their immutable copies. That bit has been
moved to its own group under the Business group and is referenced
from the BillTerm and TaxTables group.

This commit also fixes rendering of the Address doxygen info
and expands the BillTerm info to explain how proximo due dates
work.

/** @addtogroup BillTerm Billing Terms
Describes billing terms, that is when a bill is due, and what sort of
discount is applied (if any). The BillTerm object currently supports:
* the discount applied to a bill (absolute numeric value)
* the number of days until a discount expires
* information about the invoice due date
This last one can be defined in multiple ways:
* using a simple number of days value: the due date is posted date
incremented with this number of days
* using the "proximo" method which is explained below:
A proximo billing term has two parameters:
* due day: day of the month the invoice/bill will be due
* cutoff: day of the month used to decide if the due date will be
in the next month or in the month thereafter. This can be
a negative number in which case the cutoff date is relative
to the end of the month and counting backwards.
Eg: cutoff = -3 would mean 25 in February or 28 in June
How does it work:
Assume cutoff = 19 and due day = 20
* Example 1 post date = 14-06-2010 (European date format)
14 is less than the cutoff of 19, so the due date will be in the next
month. Since the due day is set to 20, the due date will be
20-07-2010
* Example 2 post date = 22-06-2010 (European date format)
22 is more than the cutoff of 19, so the due date will be in the month
after next month. Since the due day is set to 20, the due date will be
20-02-2010
@note A billing term added to an invoice is immutable, that is it
can't change any more. To achieve that a billing term is copied when
added to an invoice. This uses some internal fields to track this which
are explained in @ref ImmutableTaxTableBillTerm.
