French term or phrase: allotie
"Cas particulier de la commande allotie"

I'm after the specific term for 'allotie' - I know that it's to do with EAN barcodes and tracking but am looking for an equivalent.
Many thanks.

Sorry, Amy, I missed your additional question until now. I \"knew\" it \"by intuition\" but now went and got my very ancient LaRousse pour Tous and there it is:
allotir = faire ou distribuer des lots

I have never seen the word before and all efforts remain vain..Misprint ? or my bare ignorance.


Explanation:
I have never seen the word before and all efforts remain vain..Misprint ? or my bare ignorance.
To try and help with the Latin and greek i've read in university, it obviously refers to an order which is made of different bits and pieces, unusual as an assembly, belonging to different departments and so on, so with a gun in my back I would venture "hétéroclite, de "différents rayons" (my favourite), même "variées" ou encore non-homogène, bref je suis sûre qu'avec le contexte vous allez trouvez masi c'est vraiment bizarre...
