It is true that close entries are used to adjust accounts at the end of a period. This is common sense.
The adverb "close by" is often seen as two words, and only one or two dictionary entries list it in a hyphenated form. In all cases, it means "nearby".
Standard closing entries: Close Revenue accounts to Income Summary by debiting Revenue and crediting Income Summary. Close Expense accounts to Income Summary by debiting Income Summary and crediting Expense accounts. Close Income Summary to Capital account by debiting Income Summary and crediting Capital account. Close Withdrawals account to Capital account by debiting Capital account and crediting Withdrawals account.
Correcting entries correct errors. Adjusting entries fine tune the accounts.
Closing entries comes first as name shows post closing entries are after closing entries and it is as simple as name suggests.
The order of closing entries involves four main steps: first, close revenue accounts by transferring their balances to the Income Summary account; second, close expense accounts to the Income Summary; third, close the Income Summary account to the Retained Earnings, reflecting the net income or loss; and finally, close any dividends declared directly to the Retained Earnings account. This process ensures that all temporary accounts are reset for the new accounting period.
Journal entries are recorded as soon as financial transaction occures while adjusting entries are made to rectify the previously made journal entries.

Adjusting entries helps to achieve the principle of double entries
Closing entries close out your temporary or "income statement" accounts, as well as your dividends paid account. All of your revenue accounts increase your retained earnings, expense accounts decrease retained earnings, and dividends paid decrease retained earnings.
The entries such as "Rectification Entries", "Adjustment Entries", "Closing or Opening Entries" and Making or Providing for estimates are passed through an internal document called Journal Voucher. Book Entries are classified as: 1) Purchase Order Based Entries - Booking expenses and liability via GRN against a P.O 2) Sales Order Based Entries - Booking Sales & Scrap Sales 3) Treasury Entries - Entries involving Bank or Cash 4) Debit Notes 5) Credit Notes 6) Journal Entries Journal Voucher is the document through which the Journal Entries are made into the books.
Journal entries are those entries which are recorded first time when any transaction occured while adjusting entries are only recorded when there is any adjustment required in previously created journal entry.
