Swedish term

migrationsdelen

Swedish to English Bus/Financial Accounting
Hello

What does "migrationsdelen" mean please in

Församlingen ska tillhandahålla utdrag från huvudboken för de två konton som reglerar den särskilda ***migrationsdelen*** av verksamheten.

I can see this word on a few other sites in context but still cannot work out what it might mean when it comes to doing the accounts.

@Agneta I have to answer this on "off" as it's not clear if I can use Proz for this translation
Yes everyone, I know it's a pain and so I'll say "sorry" once but that's the way it is.

Agneta Pallinder Mar 23, 2019:
Församlingen? What kind of "församling" are we talking about? A Baptist or Methodist or other religious entity would be my immediate assumption (not the Lutheran Church of Sweden). Then perhaps "migrationsdelen" refers to their work with migrants (within or outside of Sweden).

immigration part

A bit more context (type of organization) might aid in shedding light on this. I have seen it used in the context of immigration/emigration (see link below).

PS verksamheten is also - or used to be in 'my day' - translatable in annual reports and a/cs from the abstract term of activity to 'division' of a company.
Example sentence:

Part VIII describes how to migrate accounts from one database to another in an Oracle Communications Business and Revenue Management (BRM)-

Reference:

data migration

There may very well be a specific meaning in accounting for transfer between accounts I don't know of, but my first thought was that this might be related to data migration, in which case you could translate den särskilda migrationsdelen av verksamheten by the specific migration tasks.

It would help to have more context.
Example sentence:

Data conversion / migration is a very critical step while changing an accounting / ERP software or switching from an old accounting / ERP system to a new one.
