Spanish term

prestación servicios CP

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Accounting Balance sheet
This is a line in the Balance Sheet, under Assets.
The complete entry is 'Cltes.ventas y prestación servicios CP'.
The line before is 'Cltes.ventas y prestación servicios', for which I have 'Sales clients & rendering of services'.

Is 'Rendering of Services' correct for 'prestación servicios'?
And what does 'CP' stand for? Translation into English?

Any help appreciated. TIA

FWIW More than ten years later, I've ended up on this page while researching the meaning of CP in "TRASLADO EMISOR ITINERANTE CP" from Peru....

pero con el contexto que tienes creo que la idea de Chris esta mejor, corto plazo

Short term Of course! How silly of me - couldn't see the forest for the trees...
'A corto plazo' was used in another part of the document.
Thanks for your help, Liz and Chris!

Short term CP quite possibly stands for corto plazo (short term), a common accounting term.

As for "CP", could be absolutely anything.

I believe "prestación" = provision. See: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=prestación ...

CP service provision

"Rendering", although correct, always smacks of pie-making or prostitution for some reason (services rendered). I usually put the more neutral "service provision"...

Note from asker:
Thanks for your input, Claudia. However, I think it is "short-term", especially as this is used in other parts of the text.
