English term or phrase: purchase to pay administration
"The purchase to pay administration for these local procurement activities will be performed by XXX through its provision of back office support services, but will be provided as a service to the toll manufacturers."

Ich könnte mir nur erklären, dass die Bezahlung der Verwaltungsgebühren für lokale Beschaffungen übernommen wird - ist das auch gemeint oder stehe ich auf dem Schlauch?

Asker: Sicher? Ich weiß leider nicht, ob die Leser allzu fachlich bewandert sind, daher würde ich es ausschreiben.

Sorry for the double-posting...it looks as if I really, really wanted to make a point here :-))

BTW, I think you could just leave "Purchase-to-Pay" in English, it seems to be an established term.

Note to reference poster
Asker: Definitely, I'll just leave it in English. Thanks a lot for the clarification. If they had capitalised that term, I might have guessed that it actually is one...der Wald vor lauter Bäumen eben. If you enter that term as a suggestion, you'll get four points. :)
