German term or phrase: Abrechnungswesen
A list of Technical College subjects sat at the end of a vocational training course for Dental surgery Assistants, as distinct from the other subject: Praxis Verwaltung u. Rechnungswesen.
Mrs Cooke
invoicing / billing
Explanation:
I wonder if Abrechnungswesen (as opposed to Praxisverwaltung und Rechnungswesen, which is listed as a separate item) might be billing (or invoicing) rather than accounting (which would normally be Buchhaltung in German).

Abrechnung f
(com) statement of accounts
(com) invoicing
– billing

Rechnungswesen n
(ReW) accounting
– accountancy
[Schäfer]

Just another option. See if it fits.
