GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

English translation:plan / schedule

German to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng / Brewery technology
German term or phrase: einplanen
Im Auftragssystem wird für jeden Herstellungsauftrag ein Kontrollrezept eingeplant.

The difficulty here is that the document makes a distinction between "plannen" and "einplannen".

This is from a manual for brewery equipment.

plan / schedule
Explanation:
First of all, there's no such thing as "plannen" and "einplannen", so I guess that's just a mistake. Second, in which context is "planen" used? If they are interchangeable in the German, so are they in the English. There are loads of translation options: plan, schedule, arrange, scheme, provide for. Your choice.

Explanation:
did you plan that in?
eingeplant sein = vorgesehen sein für -> sth. is intended for sth.

planen is the general overall concept. You "einplanen" an aspect into the overall concept.
