What is on-the-fly worklist in SAP BC-DOC-TTL - Translation Tools?


SAP Term: on-the-fly worklist

  • Component: BC-DOC-TTL

  • Component Name: Translation Tools

  • Description: A translator creates an on-the-fly worklist in transaction SE63 Translation Editor. It contains translation objects, which the translator then translates into his or her target language. An on-the-fly worklist is created directly via an object list, transport request, transport object, collection, or local list without the need for a worklist evaluation. The main advantage of on-the-fly worklists is that they are relatively quick and easy to use when compared with standard worklists, which involve more translation administration and coordination tasks. However, on-the-fly worklists provide no translation statistics in transaction SLLS Translation Statistics, and do not support automatic distribution. Furthermore, generating an on-the-fly worklist can be performance-intensive, and may even lead to a timeout. On-the-fly worklists are most suitable for the translation of small translation volumes into a low number of target languages.

Once all items have been translated, the document can be saved in its new language.
