käyttökohteiksi

Käyttökohteiksi is a Finnish translative plural form of the noun käyttökohde, a term that refers to a place, context, or domain where something is used or intended to be used. The translative suffix -ksi (in plural -iksi) expresses change into or designation as something, so käyttökohteiksi can be translated as “as use cases” or “as application targets.” The expression is commonly used in professional and technical texts to describe the contexts in which a product, service, or technology is intended to function.

In practice, käyttökohteiksi is used when outlining or enumerating the areas of application for a solution. It often appears in requirements documents, product descriptions, or strategic plans to indicate where a product is meant to be deployed or evaluated. For example, a software vendor might state that the software is planned for use in several käyttökohteiksi such as accounting, human resources, and customer service, thereby clarifying its scope.

The term is closely related to other Finnish concepts such as käyttötarkoitus (intended purpose) and käyttökohde (target of use or field of application). While käyttötarkoitus denotes the overall purpose, käyttökohde specifies a concrete domain, and käyttökohteiksi refers to listing or transforming offerings into those specific use areas. In translation, käyttökohteiksi is often rendered as “for use as …” or “as use cases” in English.
