liabilities Explanation: Albert's description was accurate, but in an accounting context, the correct term for 'en-cours' is 'liabilities'. ..."any such solution will starts with an essential action: liquidation of current liabilities in Francs..." It refers to out-standing debts due, i.e. items or services which have been invoiced, but for which no payment has been received. HTH Julia |

amounts/credits/loans outstanding Explanation: To add to Julia's comments above, I think we need a term that's a bit more specific than "liabilities" - one of the above might do if you have the information to choose between them. For "vidage", rather than "liquidation" of these amounts (which suggests actual settlement), I wonder if it isn't more to do with transferring these items to the new system in euros. If so, "full transfer/conversion" ie to the Euro system might be one way of coping with this. Good luck own experience |
