Creating an On-The-Fly Worklist via a Local ListLocate this document in the navigation structure

Prerequisites

  • To use a local list as the basis for on-the-fly translation, you need to create a local list.
  • You are defined in transaction LXE_MASTER as a translator for the target language into which you want to translate.
  • Your translator profile in transaction LXE_MASTER must include authorization object TRW6 with the value 01, 02, or 03.
  • To refresh the translation status of objects in your on-the-fly worklist, your translator profile must include authorization object AVUP with the value 01.
  • To deactivate the original language check when creating an on-the-fly worklist, your translator profile must include authorization object TRF1 with the value 01.
  • To deactivate the language settings when creating an on-the-fly worklist, your translator profile must include authorization object TRF2 with the value 01.
  • To deactivate the language settings and exceptions when creating an on-the-fly worklist, your translator profile must include authorization object TRF2 with the value 02.

Context

Transaction SE63 enables you to create an on-the-fly worklist on the basis of a local list, without the translation environment being set up first.

Procedure

  1. Call transaction SE63 and choose Start of the navigation path Worklist Next navigation step Create End of the navigation path.

    The My Worklist: Parameters dialog box appears.

  2. In the Language Pair group box, set the source language and target language.
  3. In the Worklist group box, do not change the default value in the Worklist Number field.
    Note The worklist number applies to standard worklists, not to on-the-fly worklists, so this parameter is irrelevant.
  4. The My Worklist: Parameters dialog box informs you if an active worklist already exists. If this is the case, select the Reset active worklist and create new worklist radio button.
    Note If an active worklist already exists, it means that a standard worklist has been generated in the system, and that you have reserved objects in your standard worklist. It is not possible to reserve objects in a standard worklist and simultaneously create an on-the-fly worklist, which means you must reset your active worklist.
  5. Choose Enter.

    The Create Worklist screen appears.

  6. Select the Local Lists tab.
  7. If your translator profile includes authorization object TRW6 with the value 03, you are authorized to select any local list in the system. Use the input help for the Local List field to select the local list whose objects you want to translate.
    Note If your translator profile includes authorization object TRW6 with the value 01 or 02, then the Local List field already contains an entry and you cannot change it.
  8. If your translator profile includes authorization object TRW6 with the value 02 or 03, you are authorized to deselect the Deactivate Selection checkbox. If you want transaction SE63 to ignore the next four parameters when creating your on-the-fly worklist, do not deselect the checkbox.
    Note If the Deactivate Selection checkbox is not selected, then the local list that you use to create your on-the-fly worklist is filtered by the collections, domains, object types, and object name specified in the next four parameters.
    Note If your translator profile includes authorization object TRW6 with the value 01, then the Deactivate Selection checkbox is selected and you cannot change this setting.
  9. If you want to restrict your on-the-fly worklist to objects that belong to specific collections, which are called packages in the development environment, choose Collections and select the collections whose objects you want to translate.
  10. If you want to restrict your on-the-fly worklist to objects that belong to specific domains, choose Domains and select the domains whose objects you want to translate.
  11. If you want to restrict your on-the-fly worklist to objects of specific object types, choose Object Types and select the object types that you want to translate.
  12. If you want to restrict your on-the-fly worklist to objects that include a specific string in their name, enter this string as a wildcard in the Object Name field.

    Example

    To restrict your on-the-fly worklist to objects in the local list whose name includes the string CRM, enter *CRM* in the Object Name field.

  13. If you want to create an on-the-fly worklist that enables you to translate objects into the target language even if the target language is the same as the original language of the objects, select the Deactivate Original Language Check checkbox.
  14. If you do not want to restrict your on-the-fly worklist to the language settings maintained on the Languages tab in transaction LXE_MASTER, select the Deactivate Language Settings checkbox.

    Example

    Local list GENE-LXE includes table type LXESCPATHS. Object type TTYP Table Types is not defined for translation into Danish. Furthermore, table type LXESCPATHS belongs to a collection that is assigned to a graph that is not defined for translation into Danish. Nevertheless, if you select the Deactivate Language Settings checkbox before creating an on-the-fly worklist for target language Danish via local list GENE-LXE, then your on-the-fly worklist includes this translation object.

  15. If you want your on-the-fly worklist to include objects that have been locked for translation in table LXE_LEXPT, select the Deactivate Exceptions checkbox.

    Example

    Local list GENE-LXE includes data element SBSJL. This object has been entered in table LXE_LEXPT to lock it for translation into all languages. Nevertheless, if you select the Deactivate Exceptions checkbox before creating an on-the-fly worklist for target language Danish via local list GENE-LXE, then your on-the-fly worklist includes this translation object.

  16. If you want to generate top texts for the short text objects in your on-the-fly worklist, select the Calculate Top Texts checkbox.
    Note If you select this checkbox, the Parameters for Top Texts dialog box appears when you start to create the on-the-fly worklist. For information on how to maintain the parameters in this dialog box, see the procedure in Creating Session-Bound Top Texts.
  17. Choose Load Objects.

Results

The system finds the objects in the specified local list that match your selection criteria, and lists them in a temporary worklist.
Note The translation status of the objects in your on-the-fly worklist is not displayed. If you want to see the translation status of some or all of the objects, select a node in the worklist structure and choose Start of the navigation path Utilities Next navigation step Refresh Status Next navigation step  End of the navigation path. The system displays the translation status of all objects assigned to the selected node. This function is performance-intensive, so you are advised to avoid refreshing the status of too many objects at once.

If you selected the Calculate Top Texts checkbox, the resulting top text objects are included in your on-the-fly worklist. For information on how to process them, see Processing Top Texts.

You can now translate objects via the worklist.
