Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Yvonne Gallagher

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Achat

Procurement signifiant achats, ce mot à tout son sens dans le cadre des biens et des services. Dans le cas présent, il pourrait s'agir d'une délégation accordée à la personne.

Merci, Charlotte !
disagree Germaine : Il me semble que "procurement" peut aussi signifier "vente" et c'est ce que suggère la mention "withdrawal of proceeds". // Alors raison de plus pour ne pas risquer l'erreur et choisir l'option la plus neutre (et la + courante) dans un cas comme celui-ci.
