Interpreting the Statistics as a Coordinator

Context

The translation statistics are displayed in a tree structure, which is determined by the tree type that you selected on the initial screen of transaction Translation Statistics (SLLS). You can click on the arrows in the tree structure to expand and collapse, as necessary.

Total values are displayed at the top of the Translation Statistics – Standard Display screen. Lines refers to lines in short text objects. Each line in a short text object counts as 1, and these figures are absolutely precise. Objects refer to long text objects and forms. These figures are approximate values.

The statistics provide you with the following information for short text objects, which is always displayed in rows in which the word Lines appears:

Total: The total number of lines
New: The number of new lines
Modified: The number of modified lines
Translated: The number of translated lines
With Proposal: The number of new and modified lines for which a best proposal exists in the proposal pool

The statistics provide you with the following information for long text objects and forms, which is always displayed in rows in which the word Objects appears:

Total: The total number of objects
New: The number of new objects
Modified: The number of modified objects
Translated: The number of translated objects
With Proposal: Only short text objects are translated with the aid of the proposal pool, so the value in this column is always 0 for objects

Note

If you’re surprised to discover an unexpectedly high number of modified objects in the statistics, this might indicate that fingerprints are missing in your system. For more information, see the following topics:

Procedure

If you double-click a domain in the statistics, such as BC, a dialog box informs you that the description of domain BC is Basis.
If you double-click a collection in the statistics, a dialog box shows you:
- The translation graph to which the collection is assigned
- The combinations of original, source, and target languages defined in the translation graph
- The translators to whom the collection is assigned
If you double-click an object type ID in the statistics, such as DTEL, a dialog box informs you that the description of object type ID DTEL is Data Element.

You can use the following functions on the Translation Statistics – Standard Display screen

Download	You can save statistics data to a local file by choosing Download or by following the menu path Edit Download .
Absolute/Percent/Rel	You can display statistics data as percentage values by choosing Absolute/Percent/Rel or the menu path Edit Percent On/Off . The first time you choose the Absolute/Percent/Rel icon, the absolute numbers are replaced by percentages. The percentage of new and modified short text lines with a best proposal is displayed in the final column. This percentage is relative to the total number of new, modified, and translated lines. It is displayed in blue. If you choose the Absolute/Percent/Rel icon a second time, the percentage is relative to the total number of new and modified lines only. It is displayed in red. If you choose the Absolute/Percent/Rel icon a third time, the absolute numbers are displayed again, just like when you first displayed the statistics.
Sort	You can maintain settings for sorting translation statistics data by choosing Sort or the menu path Edit Sort .
Information	You can display information for a specific domain, collection, or object type ID by double-clicking it (as explained above), or by selecting it and choosing the Information icon or the menu path Goto Properties .

You can use the `Shift` and `Control` keys to highlight more than one collection. Then choose the Add to Buffer icon. Recommendation You can add a collection to the buffer in the statistics, and then retrieve it from the buffer in transaction LXE_MASTER before assigning it to a translator.
