French term or phrase: chiffrier
"Sur le périmètre de ventes déclarables on établit un chiffrier"

I'm struggling to find a suitable English equivalent - Larousse defines it as "Registre comptable faisant la preuve de la concordance entre le journal et le grand-livre"

Thank you

I do not agree with the spelling of the reference entry which had been given prior to my answer. It should not be spelt as "work-sheet".

Accounting
In accounting a worksheet often refers to a loose leaf piece of stationery from a columnar pad, as opposed to one that has been bound into a physical ledger book. From this, the term was extended to designate a single, two-dimensional array of data within a computerized spreadsheet program. Common types of worksheets used in business include financial statements, such as profit and loss reports. Analysts, investors, and accountants track a company's financial statements, balance sheets, and other data on worksheets.

NB.

Something well worth considering:

Worksheet = 8,790,000 google entries.
Work-sheet = 465,000 google entries.

  -> Yes, but I did not agree with Radu's spelling of "worksheet". Hence my reason for posting an answer. Radu posted a reference entry. Worksheet = 8,790,000 google entries. Work-sheet = 465,000 google entries.

numbered journalized entry


Explanation:
I can't find an official English translation, but this I belived is what they are talking about.

An account entry is journalized after it is first recorded, when it is posted to a ledger account. According to standard accounting procedures, once it is journalized it can not be changed. Certain computerized systems physically prevent such a change. In a certain sense that makes the entry more of an official record of the business.

The next step is the posting to the general ledger which requires a greater degree of internal proveout of accounts. Frequently these general ledger entries are numbered to make them a bit more official so to speak.

The following reference refers both to the journalizing and numbering in a way which I think its easy to follow:

So your text, want this numbered entry which follows the Larousse definition.
