Filling Transport Requests With Translations 

Use

You can fill a transport request with translations for:

·        A target language

·        Object types that are translated in the system

·        A date range

·        A user

·        A package

·        A software component

For example, you can fill a transport request with translations into target language English for all of the object types in package SLXE that have been saved by user SMITHJ since the start of the current week.

Prerequisites

If you want to use a transport request that was created manually, you must first create it for the target language. For more information, see Creating Requests in Transport Recording.

You can only use transport recording if your user profile includes authorization object S_TRANSLAT with activity A8 for the target languages you want to record, and authorization object S_TRANSPRT with activity CREA and type T.

Procedure

...

       1.      Call transaction SE38 to execute program RS_LXE_RECORD_TORDER directly (by choosing F8).

The LXE – Collect Translations in Transport Request screen is displayed.

       2.      In the Target Language field, enter the two-character ID of the target language for which you want to perform transport recording.

       3.      If you want to use a transport request that has already been created, use the input help function to select it.

       4.      If you want the system to generate a transport request, choose Create Request Automatically.

The system displays radio buttons for the transport type. Select Transport of Copies or Workbench Request.

       5.      The Object Type field enables you to enter one object type, several object types, or a range of object types to be included in the transport request. If you leave these fields blank, the translations of all object types are recorded in the transport request.

       6.      In the Editing Period field, enter the date range of the translations you want to collect in the transport request. If you leave these fields blank, translations are recorded irrespective of the date on which they were saved.

       7.      In the Object Processor fields, enter the translator or translators whose translations need to be recorded. If you leave these fields blank, the translations of all translators are recorded in the transport request.

       8.      Enter the packages whose translations need to be transported. If you leave these fields blank, all packages are transported.

       9.      If you want to transport translations that belong to a specific component, make the appropriate entries in the corresponding fields. Otherwise, leave them blank.

   10.      If you want to execute the request immediately and just once, choose Program ® Execute in Background and schedule the job for immediate execution. If you want to perform transports regularly using the same parameters each time, schedule the job for periodic execution.

Result

The system writes the translations that match your selection criteria to the transport request that you selected.

The system creates a detailed log, listing any objects that could not be written to the transport request.

You can now display the transport request to view the objects for which translations were recorded. You can release the request to transport the translations to other systems. For more information, see Displaying Transport Requests in Transport Recording.
