Tech/Engineering - Computers: Software / Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
French term or phrase: codifier
C’est pourquoi, à partir du 1er juin, nous commencerons à utiliser le logiciel en y codifiant les tâches que vous effectuez dans le cadre de votre travail quotidien.

I am wondering if this should be something more general like "integrating" or more technical like "encoding." Has anyone seen this specifically in an ERP context?

Thanks.
