English term or phrase: grants and packages (in that precise case)

"Grants are maintained through a series of packages that are generated into each of the Billing and Customer Care schemas"

Grant and package can point to a lot of things. Any suggestion for that precie occurrence?

Thanks in advance

French translation:autorisations et série de mesures
Explanation:
Selon cette phrase : «grants» pourrait être autorisations

Pour «packages», je crois qu'il faille prendre l'expression «series of packages» pour la traduire en série de mesures.

agree  Connie Leipholz: policy package/package of measures = série de mesure OU programme (Termium)

disagree  mckinnc: the word grant is not used in this way - we would tend to say privileges

escomptes/mesures


Explanation:
considering that we are in the context of Billing and Customer care, grant syn. of allowance = also: rabais, remise, ristourne, escompte
Through these packages it is possible to keep track of the discount(s) the client is entitled to.
ex: some companies will give to their good clients a discount if the invoice is paid within 15 days; it is necessary to keep track of the clients who get the discount and how much discount(for a client could be 1% for another 3%); the discount is mentioned in the original invoice
for series of packages = série de misures

privilèges et forfaits


Explanation:
Je suis d'accord avec Colin sur "privilèges" plutôt "qu'autorisations".

Puisqu'on réfère à des "Billing and customer care shémas", je suppose qu'ils génèrent/résultent en divers "forfaits"
adaptés aux profils définis.

Notes on grant


Explanation:
Grants for what? Are you sure you don't have more background information? Grant (apart from being a boy's name!) is too open without more context... some suggestions

grant = bourse (étudiant)
grant = subvention (de l'Etat)
grant = prime
grant = octroi (de qqchs)
grant = autorisation
grant = cession (de propriété)

droits et offres


Explanation:
A mon avis dans le contexte "customer care" les "grants" sont les équivalents de "entitlements": droits d'accès du client à certains services, et les "packages" sont des offres commerciales regroupées d'un certain nombre de ces services.
Exemple en support technique pour lesquels j'ai déjà traduit nombre de contrats de ce genre: une offre de services (package) peut regrouper des droits (grants) d'accès à une base de données de donte technique, au téléchargement de pilotes, à un certain nombre d'appels téléphoniques ou à un numéro spécial, etc
Autre exemple en services bancaires: "package" de "grants" assurance en cas de vol de chéquier, accès Internet aux relevés de compte, etc
La plupart des banques ont ce genre de service, regroupés en "offres" ou "formules", exemple BNP ci-dessous
