Hola Steve,

They are referring to the same tense, the present perfect in English.

Some text books call this tense El pretérito Perfecto and some El Pretérito Perfecto Compuesto.

If you see "El Pretérito Perfecto Simple", then this is another name for El Pretérito Indefinido.

We have a table with all different tense names. Here it is. 

Saludos

Inma
