Discussion

Gian Dec 16, 2008:
materiale in conto lavorazione di solito viene definito il materiale che una società "A" manda ad una altra societa o ditta "B" per trasformarlo/lavorarlo in modo che poi la società "A" possa utilizzarlo/assemblarlo e venderlo.
In-process material ritengo che sia il materiale he in uno stabilimento è fuori dal magazzino ed è in lavorazione o montaggio.

in-process materials

This stuff is highly specific. Specific to the particular company/industry. People don't normally send materials to their suppliers. So which specific translation you use is not so important, as long as it goes with the explanation. "in-process" materials is a standard accounting term for stuff half-way between raw materials and finished products. It is a cost and is stated at cost.

Maybe you should add "in-process materials with supplier"
