Hi garden1127,

I'll wait for a clarificatioon from you, not sure if this is what you need...

English: plan comptable
French: cadre comptable

Also sometimes called: tallies countable

[French Wikpedia, translated to English]

Reference:

..."Nevertheless, the accounting plans commonly include: the
accounting principles, chart of accounts (cadre comptable), list of
accounts, terminology of accounts and their interpretations,
explanations for entry into the journal, evaluation principles and
forms of financial statements..."


Does this sound right?

Hello,

the name is plan comptable general

If you type these words in Google and request only English page, you
will find a webpage of the French Ministry of Finance (minefi) with
the content and functioning of the standardised chart of account in
English.
