Duane,

Thank you for the answers. What I forgot to specify is that the terms
used by my accountant are on the left side and the terms that I think
equivalent in GnuCash are on the right side of my table; the
translation of GnuCash terms in French are correct. It's only the
equivalence in the French accountants terminology --- left side of my
table --- that is not so clear.

Remark: Sorry for the first reply to your personal mail account, I
        didn't realize that the Reply-To field wasn't set by the
