Such tasks are heavy work with high risk. That's why we do it version after version (for example, in 4.0, we did in on "expensereport" to replace "deplacement", in 5.0 the normalization was done on "notes". We progress one topic per topic but due to risk, such actions are currently done by myself or few experimented core developers.

Not only high risk but also interpretation / translation Has to be read by natives speakers in context

@BebZ These are internal variables to be red by developers. Bad english is still better than frenglish for non french devs. Even french devs like myself are often confused by the crazy language mix in Dolibarr source code.

Anyway, these change are for the better but should be done with baby steps considering the ramifications of the changes, some of which are not under our control (Most notably external modules). Extra care has also to be taken on communicating about these changes to give module developers a chance to catch on. Nerve wracking decisions, hence the baby steps ;) Keep up the good work @eldy.

Hi everyone,

It sounds like the wording workorder is suited for fichinter. Then, each line of a work order, whether it refers to a product or a service could be called deliverable,

I'm looking after bringing some enhancements to the delivery related processes, right now. So, if anyone using the existing naming or having done some research on the subject, can relate..

Regards,
