Explanation:
Which type of procedure are you using: due date inventory, permanent, pre-scheduled or post-scheduled inventory. Simply incorporate in your X software the desired procedure as it applies to the object [article] in order to take account of same accordingly.

I think they talk abou t a software configuration. FIFO [first in first out] and LIFO [last in first out] are accounting methods companies use on their balance sheets for the purpose of tax treatment.

In your example, "inventory" should be perhaps replaced with "filing", but not sure of this.

FIFO and LIFO stock valuation procedures


Explanation:
I´m rather guessing, I haven´t seen these terms used in this context before, but it seems clear it is stock valuation methods, and vorverlegt would b FIFO, etc.?

Explanation:
Sorry, I don't have a translation for you (yet, but will post later if I find it), but I just wanted to give you the definitions from the website below. Hopefully they will steer you in the right direction (I don't think LIFO and FIFO are what is meant here).

Bei der Stichtagsinventur gibt nur zu einem Zeitpunkt einen genauen Überblick über das Vermögen. Die permanente Inventur erfasst alle Veränderungen zeitgenau und hat daher eine sehr viel höhere Genauigkeit während des gesamten Jahres.


Vermögensgegenstände, die in einem besonderen Inventar verzeichnet sind, das für einen Tag innerhalb der letzten drei Monate vor (vorverlegte Inventur) oder der ersten beiden Monate nach (nachverlegte Inventur) Schluss des Geschäftsjahres aufgestellt worden sind und zum Stichtag fortgeschrieben bzw. zurückgerechnet werden können, brauchen nicht gesondert erfasst zu werden. (§ 241 Abs. 3 HGB)

The above site also has a glossary you may find useful.

HTH!
