Põhifunktsioonideks

Põhifunktsioonideks is Estonian for describing the main functions or core duties of a system, organization, product, or concept. The term is formed from põhifunktsioon, meaning “core function,” combined with the translative suffix -ideks, which conveys the sense of “as the main functions” or “for the main functions.” It is commonly used in formal or technical writing to outline essential capabilities.

The expression is typically used to introduce a list or description of the most important tasks a subject must perform to fulfill its purpose. For example: “Põhifunktsioonideks loetakse andmete kogumine, säilitamine, analüüs ja raportimine.” Another example: “Põhifunktsioonideks on teenuse kasutajatu;

u tugi ja süsteemi turvalisus.” The form helps distinguish core duties from secondary or optional features.

In practice, põhiqfunktsioonideks appears across domains such as information technology, product design, and organizational planning. It supports clear communication about priorities, requirements, and evaluation criteria by explicitly naming the essential functions that a solution or entity must deliver.

Related terms include põhifunktsioon (singular, “core function”), tugifunktsioonid (support functions), and lisafunktsioonid (additional functions). The concept emphasizes the design and assessment of what is most central to a system’s purpose, often guiding decision-making, resource allocation, and performance measurement.
