business line workshop Client has given it to me from previous project file.
philgoddard Dec 29, 2011:
What kind of company is this?
Also, I think "module" is unlikely to be the correct translation. What is this document exactly?
B D Finch Dec 29, 2011:
That might be another question However, any decent dictionary should give you definitions of "trade" and "business" with examples of usage. The translation of the term you posted really does, as others have already remarked, depend on the wider context and, in particular, the meaning of "PA".
Gaurav Sharma (asker) Dec 29, 2011:
diff b/w trade and business? i do not understand what is the difference in between the two. Please clear it.

Proposed translations

Selected

business workshop

or business process workshop

business division workshop

business activity workshop

maybe even

business department workshop

What is "PA"? - That is the key issue. "Personnel adminstratif"?

Seems to be HR-related.

If "personnel adminstratif" is right, I would say "business department workshop" is a good fit.

Thx :)
neutral philgoddard : I think this is unlikely. Métier has all sorts of meanings apart from "trade" in the sense of skilled manual jobs.
