agree  Anne Schulz: ...dann gibt es da auch noch das "workflow sheet" als stehenden Begriff... "Master" würde ich in dem Zusammenhang mit "übergeordnet" oder "Haupt-" übersetzen.

  -> Ja, "workflow sheet" könnte eine gute Alternative sein. Zu "master" fällt mir auch immer noch "Stamm-" ein, z.B. in "master data (record)" = "Stammdaten(satz)".

neutral  Steffen Walter: But, if I remember correctly, Jonathan's text also includes 'Verfahren', which I would translate as 'procedures' whilst 'Ablauf' = process or workflow. // True ;-)

  -> Classic case of swings and roundabouts. Johnathan will have to see which causes the least confusion in his context. My motto is, 'If you can't be right, be consistent!'
