refrendo del (Oficial) Contable Superior


Explanation:
Entiendo que aquí el problema que existe es el refrendo del superior contable sin haber tomado las medidas del caso, y por lo tanto prestándose para errores que conllevan consecuencias mayores.

visto bueno/aprobación del responsable de contabilidad "senior"


Explanation:
En España sería contable más que contador.
