(1)  an authentic deed or private writing;
(2)  a verbal agreement to pay a specific sum of money;
(3)  a detailed account pertaining to the sale price of a movable that has been delivered or the price of a contract for services that have been provided.
The inscription must be accompanied by an affidavit attesting that the amount claimed is owing by the defendant to the plaintiff.
