Bus/Financial - Computers: Software / ERP software
German term or phrase: Darstellung
Artikel-Stammpflege

GENERAL CONTEXT:
e-collaboration / ERP software used in a fashion accessories context

SPECIFIC CONTEXT:
Vor allem die Artikel-Stammpflege der 25.000 SKUs hätte bei der bisherigen Lösung eine Vervielfachung des Aufwandes bedeutet, und kann jetzt mit einer enormen Kosteneinsparung erfolgen. Ebenso ist die Darstellung der in der Fashion-Branche üblichen Matrix-Struktur bei [XYZ software solution] standardmäßig enthalten.

TRANSLATOR’S NOTE:
There are numerous translations for Darstellung. I need to know the correct US English business term in this context.

TIA Tom
