Buenos días,
Continuo traduciendo el documento relacionado con procedimientos financieros.
Como lo expresé en consultas anteriores, el documento es de Colombia.
Tengo el Diccionario de Términos Financieros de Espasa, también tengo el Diccionario Contable bilingue de Nora Sanchez; sin embargo, en ninguno de éstos me aparece el término.
Buqué en internet y encontré lo siguiente:
https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/cuenta-de-cobro.2030...
https://www.proz.com/kudoz/english-to-spanish/law-contracts/... (sin embargo, en este caso "cuenta de cobro" es la traducción de "billing statement", por lo que me gustaría saber si alguno de ustedes está familiarizado con el término y de ser así cómo lo han traducido:
Texto fuente:
Cuenta de cobro: Cumple una función de comprobante de la realización de un pago, pueden utilizarse para hacer un cobro por la prestación de un servicio cuando no se está obligado a facturar, aunque para la contabilidad de quien hace el pago debe hacerse un documento

Je crois que tu te trompes ici. Un "bill" (un autre mot pour "facture") sert exactement a cela. Je t'en prie de regarder l'explication détaillée que je viens de publier ci-dessus.

collection account
What is a collection account?
If you fall behind on payments, the lender or creditor may transfer your account to a collection agency or sell it to a debt buyer. This generally occurs a few months after you become delinquent, or the date you begin missing payments or not paying the full minimum payment.

: Désolé, mais il ne s'agit pas de cela. C'est une chose complètement différente ce que tu proposes ici. ça serait l'equivalent de "cuenta en cobro jurídico" ou quelque chose similaire.

billing statement(s)
As you suggested, and I also found the same links you made reference to, including others from COLOMBIA to support "billing statement(s)". The usage in Colombia may be slightly different to what one has become accustomed, but I don't see a justifiable reason to deviate from "billing statement(s).

Withholding Tax
The withholding tax (retención en la fuente) is a tax collection mechanism for
withholding income taxes and complementary taxes at the time of payment, when
billed through a formal printed invoice (factura) or a billing statement (cuenta de
cobro). Withholding rates can vary from 1.0% to 33%, depending on the service
provided, whether the individual or company is Colombian or foreign, and whether
it is an individual or a legal entity.

: I'm not sure this translation is correct. If you do a job for one of your clients, would you send them a "billing statement"? Is this the same as a bill? ! Providing links to support an answer isn't a requirement. You're disregarding local knowledge here.

Due a lack of space, I posted a comment above. Supporting links, true, not a requirement, but others may think differently//I went as far as to extract Colombian-related documents; AFAIK, one can pay on a statement to (a list of invoices). Regards.

invoice
It's an account or written statement of the money charged: an invoice.
https://www.deepl.com/translator#es/en/cuenta de cobro
A collection account would be a written statement of the amount which is charged, and is to be retrieved.
(Es una declara escrita del importe que es cobrado para ser recogido.)
A payment has been charged and if it's accounted then the payment account is a receipt or a statement of payment.
(Un pago ha sido cobrado y cuando está contado la cuenta de pago es un recibo u declara escrita del pago.)

"It fulfills a function of payment process verification. They can be used to take payments in return for service provision when not obliged to invoice. In order to account for the person who makes a payment, a receipt or written statement is needed."

statement of account / account statement
I looked for "billing statement" on the following website, but it was not there.
https://www.accountingtools.com/articles/what-is-a-statement...
However, I found "statement of account / account statement" on this same website, and the explanation is given below:
The statement of account
July 04, 2019
A statement of account is a detailed report of the contents of an account. An example is a statement sent to a customer, showing billings to and payments from the customer during a specific time period, resulting in an ending balance. The purpose of the statement is to remind a customer of sales on credit that have not yet been paid to the seller. The statement is usually a printed document, but may also be sent electronically. A sample statement of account usually includes the following information:
The beginning total of unpaid invoices.
The invoice number, invoice date, and total amount of each invoice issued to the customer during the time period.
The credit number, credit date, and total amount of each miscellaneous credit issued to the customer during the time period.
The payment date and total amount of each payment received by the seller during the time period.
The net remaining balance of all transactions listed. This is the total amount payable to the seller.
A payment slip on the bottom of the page that can be torn off and used as a remittance back to the seller. The slip usually contains a mail-to address, the customer name, and a block in which to fill in the amount being paid.
There may also be a block on the statement, in which is noted the contact information for the seller's collections staff, in case the recipient wants to contact them to discuss the information on the statement.
The amount of invoices listed on the statement may be itemized into time buckets, so that the reader can easily determine which invoices are overdue for payment, and which are not yet due. The time buckets typically used are:
0 to 30 days
31-60 days
61-90 days
90+ days
In rare cases, the presence of large credits on a statement of account may reveal that the seller owes money to the customer, in which case a payment or ongoing credit is arranged.
The utility of the statement of account is questionable, since it requires some accounting staff time to create, as well as postage costs, and may be ignored by recipients. It is also generally issued immediately after month-end, when it interferes with the monthly closing process. It is most cost-effective in those situations where there is a history of achieving collections that are directly attributable to the issuance of statements of account.

A statement of account is also known as an account statement.
Hope this helps.
