French term

sous-venues

French to English Tech/Engineering Medical: Pharmaceuticals Pharmaceutical packaging and labelling instructions
Am completely stumped by what this can mean in this context, the packaging of drugs in tablet and powder form:

Mise à jour HI p3 + incorporation tableau page suivante - Fusion tableau ****sous-venues**** p7 – remplacer « conformité » par « intégrité » p15 – changt page équipt poinçons passage de la p15 à la p16 – rajout en début de campagne...de la gravure p16 – changt réf. saches p17 - changer limites rendt p25 – revoir pagination -

****Sous-venues**** I+II et III+IV

The first paragraph above comes immediately after this:

Mise à jour HI p3 + incorporation tableau page suivante - Fusion tableau sous-venues p7 – remplacer « conformité » par « intégrité » p15 – changt page équipt poinçons passage de la p15 à la p16 – rajout en début de campagne...de la gravure p16 – changt réf. saches p17 - changer limites rendt p25 – revoir pagination -

a google search drew a complete blank for me and I am still trying to work in out from the context.... so far, no luck! Has anyone come across this term in a similar context?

sub-batches

I have come across "venues" before in this context and I translated it as sub-batch. It was a while ago, but I think I based my translation on clues in the source doc, e.g. "Plusieurs fractions (appelées venues) sont préparées successivement totalisant une masse de grain correspondant à 840 000 comprimés, constituant le lot industriel." "La fabrication du lot de 160 kg est réalisée par la granulation de 2 venues de 80 kg".
"Fraction" or "sub-fraction" would be other possibilities.
Note from asker:
Oh.... that is interesting. Funnily enough, in the same document, I also came across 'tour' to mean 'sub-batch' (have you ever seen this?) and I think that might have thrown me off the scent a bit! At least 'sous-venue' contains the 'sub' element...! Anyway, thank you, this is very helpful.
Something went wrong...
