  • Back offices of traditional money mangers are now being faced with the tracking, accounting, reporting, analytics and performance measurement of these complex assets.

administrative funktioner


Definition from own experience or research:
Generelt samlende udtryk brugt om de administrative funktioner i en virksomhed, dvs. it, bogholderi, sekretær mv, over for produktion, salg osv. Kan også bruges mere specifikt om støttefunktioner for sælgere eller højere niveauer i teknisk support.

Example sentence(s):
  • BackOffice varetager en lang række vigtige interne administrative funktioner hos Fleggaard Leasing. Medarbejderne i BackOffice står bl.a. for afgiftsberegning, periodeafgifter, leasingaftaler, førstegangsfaktureringer og brugermapper - Fleggaard Leasing  
  • The Back Office tilbyder management support, direktionsassistance og traditionel salg/marketing- eller sekretærassistance til små og mellemstore virksomheder, som ikke har ressourcerne in-house. Vores mål er at blive anvendt som den back office funktion, der kan aflaste eller supplere eksisterende medarbejdere i dagligdagen. Med beliggenhed i Forskerparken Scion DTU har The Back Office de optimale forudsætninger for at servicere et inspirerende og hurtigt skiftende iværksættermiljø og være med til at løse de administrative udfordringer, som vokser i takt med vækstvirksomhederne. - The Back Office  
  • Inden for jobområdet er medarbejderne i det væsentligste ”Front-office”, der håndterer kontakt til kunder, mens ”Back-office” personale håndterer nødvendige administrative funktioner som fx produktudvikling og fremstilling af salgsmaterialer. - Undervisningsministeriet  

Explanation:
Må ikke forveksles med 'bagkontor'. Udtrykket kommer af det fysiske rum, men bruges nu om dage mere abstrakt og dækker kun over arbejdsfunktionerne.
