German term or phrase: Bandbelegung
This is from a commission finishing agreement where a German company has clothing produced in China. I am not sure what "Bandbelegung"might refer to. The complete clause is,
"Die Lieferdaten der einzelnen Produktionsaufträge (= PA´s) sind der Produktionsanfrage und der Bandbelegung zu entnehmen."

I don't think it refers to an assembly line.

Thanks in advance for your help.

could it be production line schedule
Explanation:
I hear what you said, and I look at this and think maybe it DOES have to do with the production line.

I see it as you can figure out when something is going to be delivered by looking at how many jobs are in front of you and how filled up the production pipeline is.

Just above a guess, but you might think about it.

agree  Terry Gilman: It's not a very customer- or reader-friendly approach ("if you want to know, do the math / look it up (elsewhere)"), but I agree with your interpretation
