Hi,

They are all standard accounting terms.

AP = Accounts Payable

AR = Accounts Receivable

GL = General Ledger

AP is Accounts Payble -- system for tracking the paying out of money from the business to vendors
AR is Accounts Receivable -- system for tracking the receivables -- money customers owe to the business
GL is the General Ledger -- system for keeping track of all money flows within a business.

For example, Quickbooks includes AP, AR, and GL functions.
