Procedure documentationAssigning Collections to a Translator Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

You need to assign collections to each translator so that they can call up the objects belonging to these collections in a worklist and translate them. Each translator can also display translation statistics for the collections assigned to them, to enable them to monitor their personal workload.

Prerequisites

  • The user(s) to whom you want to assign collections are created as translators in LXE_MASTER. .

  • Your translator profile includes authorization USCO with value 01. To assign collections that are not assigned to you, you also need authorization COSE with value 01.

Procedure

The procedure for assigning collections depends on whether you have been created as a coordinator for all languages (language ****) or for just one language, and whether you want to assign collections to one translator or several translators at the same time.

Collection assignment takes place in transaction LXE_MASTER in the Translators tab page.

The table below describes the three possible procedures:
