French term or phrase: écriture lettrée

Accounting = "lettrage des écritures d'un compte"
"écriture lettrée" and "écriture non lettrée"

Is this "coded" / "uncoded" ? "cleared" / "uncleared" ? Is "lettrage" = "coding" ?

well-read

Explanation:
I am replying only as I see that nobody else has, and I am hoping to perhaps steer you in the right direction.
Lettrée means well-read, and écriture are books, so well-read books, but I do not know how that would fit into the context of accounting. (Lettrage - lettering) Anyway, I hope that this might help you somewhat...

with extreme caution

Explanation:
could it be "in letters" that is not just in numbers but written out as in
2 (two)?

GDT does not give any useful suggestion as to lettrage, except in the realm of graphisme, imprimerie etc. as "lettering"

reconciliation of bookings

Explanation:
took a long, long time to find this link. But I think this might be what you are looking for.

"Lettrage
Le lettrage, parfois également appelé réconciliation ou apuration, est une opération qui consiste à établir un lien entre une facture et son (ses) paiement(s). Le lettrage est une opération extra-comptable ne servant qu'à faciliter le suivi des comptes de tiers (certains comptes généraux nécessitent également le lettrage). Le lettrage n'est donc pas une écriture comptable en soi bien qu'il puisse en générer (p.ex. une différence sur change).
Par le mécanisme du lettrage, l'utilisateur renseigne donc la (les) facture(s) pour laquelle le paiement est effectué.
L'utilité du lettrage est évidente: grâce à lui il est possible de visualiser un compte de tiers en ne tenant compte que des positions ouvertes."

Hope that helps
