German term or phrase: Einlastung (context)
I received the following explanation for Einlastung from the customer:
Mit Auftrags-Einlastung bezeichnen wir den Vorgang, einen Auftrag ins Betriebsgeschehen "einzulasten". Im Einlastungs-
gespräch wird seitens der Vertriebsleute den Vertretern der verschiedenen Abteilungen mitgeteilt, was wann, eventuell
auch wie (Besonderheiten), zu welchen kommerziellen und terminlichen Bedingungen zu erledigen ist.
What do we make of this in English?

Explanation:
To my knowledge, "Einlastung" refers to capacity management: the
assignment/distribution/dispatching of incoming jobs to the person or
machine with available capacity--the goal of course being optimum.

Good luck!
