délai de réception timeframe Explanation: In some contexts -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 17 hrs 16 mins (2005-02-16 09:46:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- \"Therefore, this is not a deadline but a period of time.\" - \"timeframe for receiving an invoice\" I like Ronnie\'s \"Deadline for receipt\" (of invoices) too. |

délai de réception time before receipt of invoice Explanation: As it's written, the about is the meaning. It seems strange, though, to talk about the time it takes to deliver an invoice. Are you sure it's not about payment limit? "paiement 20 jours à partir de réception de facture" is a standard term on an invoice. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 20 hrs 38 mins (2005-02-16 13:09:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- caro44, considering your additional comments (which would have helped everybody if you had told us straight away), it has to be a question to know if the customer believes he gets the invoice quickly enough to manage his accounting or whatever. These details are of course guessing. Some other suggestions: \"time it takes to provide an invoice\" \"speed of delivery of invoice\" \"time it takes before you get an invoice\" I\'m sure others will have more suggestions, now that we know what it\'s about. |
