Spanish term

pocas partidas

Spanish to English Social Sciences Transport / Transportation / Shipping
From the same text as before.

Los actores en el mercado no deben limitarse al papel de ahorradores en las pocas partidas en las que puedan incidir.

I understand it refers to the funds allocated to different provisions or expenses in the operations of the railway system, but not sure about the appropriate term to use in this context.

Items? Budget headings? Or something else?
Thanks.
