grafik

English translation: flow chart

Czech to English translations [PRO]
Law: Contract(s) / oil contracts
Czech term or phrase: grafik
Can anyone tell me what on earth is meant by grafik in the following sentence:
jakmile bude ropa v tzv.grafiku, ihned kontrakt podepíší.
It comes in a text about contracts concluded with oil refineries in Russia and the company which is to sign the contract is Russian so I am not sure if grafik might be a Czechification of a Russian word. Many thanks for any help

Explanation:
maybe the source word is not grafik, but grafikon, then it could mean flow chart, or graphic time-table - just a suggestion

agree  Kateřina Suchánková: You are right, the source word might be grafikon in Czech, which is grafik in russian. The Russian English is sometimes strange. The correct Czech expression will be "harmonogram"
