This is an auditor's report of the strengths and shortcomings of a company's SAGE accounting system.
This particular bullet point deals with reconciliation, and criticizes:
"L'absence de rapprochement, sur le SI SAGE, des **encaissements par vignettes** et par virement des clients Grands Comptes ;"
What in heck is "encaissements par vignettes" ?
Is it payment slips/chits ?
Many thanks as always :-)

Vignette (road tax)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vignette is a form of road pricing imposed on vehicles, usually in addition to the compulsory road tax, based on a period of time the vehicle may use the road, instead of road tolls that are based on distance travelled. Vignettes are currently used in several European countries. The term originated in France in the 1950s, although vignettes there were not linked to motorway use and no longer exist; it is now used throughout Central Europe, as well as in Italy (vignetta).
Vignettes are used in Austria, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Moldova, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia and Switzerland. In most of these countries a small, coloured sticker is affixed to a vehicle windscreen, but in Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia[1] these have been superseded by electronic vignettes. In Moldova and Romania, vignettes are required for the use of any road, and in Bulgaria are required for the use of any road outside urban areas. In the other countries, vignettes are required only for the use of motorways and expressways.
Prices for an annual vignette for passenger cars range from €30 to €150, depending on country. In all countries except Switzerland, short-period vignettes are sold for visiting or transiting vehicles. In Switzerland, visiting foreign motorists must buy an annual vignette to use the country's motorways. Vignettes can usually be obtained at border crossings, gas stations and other outlets. Improperly used or lost vignettes are usually not refunded.[2]
Vignette stickers are usually constructed in such a way that detaching and re-attaching them is impossible without destruction, ensuring that they cannot be used on more than one vehicle. Road traffic is often monitored by roadside cameras, and vignettes are verified by state officials, such as border guards and national police. Hefty cash fines are often charged to travelers using public roads without a valid and properly affixed vignette. Additional tolls are usually levied for passing through certain motorway tunnels and bridges.[3]

: Asker has already explained that this is nothing to do with road tax, it is mobile telecoms! 'vignette' only applies to the specific case of a road fund licence because of tradition in France, like 'carte grise' or 'prune'; there's no inherent connection.
