Portuguese term or phrase: Cobrança bancaria CAIXA
This is the heading of a withdrawal receipt (or maybe payment order). I wonder of CAIXA is a proper name or means "cash/funds" here.

This is what seems to be a standard form to make regular payments, such as rent, utility bills, etc.

CAIXA bank collection
Explanation:
My assumption is that it is a proper name, as there is a bank in Brazil ("Caixa Econômica Federal") which is widely known here as "CAIXA".

bank collection CASHIER


Explanation:
In PT-BR, this would mean that the document is used by the bank cashier. The headings you quote suggest that it is used to record details of a payment received by the cashier, as these details include the number, type and value of another document. It may be an internal control document.
