Swedish term or phrase: anslag vs. anslagsposten
Hello,

I'm translating a document about funding provided by the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs. A list of a few areas of expenditure is given and both *anslaget* and *anslagsposten* are mentioned.

"Stödet är uppdelat mellan utgiftsområde 2 och 4 och består av två delar: 2 miljoner kronor kommer från utgiftsområde 2, anslaget 2:2, anslagsposten 33, 4 miljoner kronor från utgiftsområde 4, anslaget 4:4, anslagsposten 44."

The difference between anslaget and anslagsposten is not clear to me. I suppose both of them could be translated as "appropriation", but how exactly would you solve this particular sentence?

Both of these are mentioned in this text, for example: https://www.esv.se/statsliggaren/regleringsbrev/?RBID=17021

Thanks a lot

Eva
