English translation:listing check
Explanation:
This gets no meaningful hits, so although the context may be SAP, I don't think it's SAP terminology. You can translate it however you like, within reason.

Einlistung is an uncommon word, but it means listing, ie adding to a list, possibly of the products that a company sells.

Untersuchung has all kinds of translations, but I think the idea is checking, testing or inspecting, because your text refers to Proben, samples.

In answer to your additional question, there is no right or wrong answer. We don't have enough context (which is not your fault), so 'examination' would be another possibility. I chose 'check' because it's short.

Possibly "entry search"? (See reference.)

Notes to answerer
Asker: I reached the conclusion that "Einlistung" means listing. The "Untersuchung" part bothers me, because it has such a broad meaning, from study, survey, research, to inquiry, investigation, examination, unsure about "check". Could it be "listing examination"?
