Prerequisites

The target language into which you will translate has been set up in the translation system.

Procedure

  1. Call up transaction SLWA.
  2. Select your target language under the tab title Target language.
  3. Choose the tab title Graphs.

    4. The system displays a table containing the translation graphs.

  4. For each Original language containing objects that have to be ultimately translated in your translation system, enter the Source language from which you will actually translate and press Copy in the menu bar.

The system automatically displays the Independent languages and the Dependent languages in this table.

Note

If a language remains in red in this table, it means that the language has not been set up for translation in this system. You cannot translate from this language. You must fetch the texts from a language import.

Result

Example:

Original language German is translated into English, French and Italian. English is then used as the source language for Korean.

Choose English as the target language.

Where German is the original language, define German as the source language, and press Copy in the menu bar.

Now do the same for Italian and French.

Choose Korean as the target language.

Where German is the original language, define English as the source language and press Copy in the menu bar.

You can now translate German to English and English to Korean.

To see the graph as a hierarchical tree structure, press Graph in the Translation Environment Graphs screen. The system shows the structure of the translation sequence you have defined.

If your language is shown in yellow, this means that the source language is not translated in this system, and that you need a language transport from the respective system in order to translate the language. In this case, the source language is shown in red, and the translation language is shown in yellow.
