recall and field procedures


Explanation:
and other field procedures

Benz/Wessels Wörterbuch Logistik gives for Rückrufaktion: recall campaign/ initiative/ procedure

(I wouldn't translate Aktion as action)

But what is a Feldaktion - is it good German? I found 'field office' through Google in connection with goods - local distribution centres, it appears.

agree  Steffen Walter: Wholeheartedly with your comment on the oddity of "Feldaktion". Maybe they mean local/regional sales campaigns here.

agree  Beate Lutzebaeck: I guess Feldaktionen is having your reps go out and call customers for whatever reason; it's ok German, though jargony.
15 mins

agree  writeaway: I think Steffen might have the aktion solution with the word 'campaigns'.

  -> Yes, see Wessels/Benz quote - I wondered about field + campaign though
