Searching for Suggestions Automatically
To automatically search for suggestions:
From the Translation Applications menu (GH791), select either Senior Translations or Junior Translations, depending on whether you are a senior or junior translator, and then F7920: Resource Text Translations (RTT).
On the Work With Resource Text Translation form, complete the Selected File Name, Status, and Language fields, and then click Find.
Click an item in the detail area, and then click Select.
Alternatively, you can double-click a translation item in the detail area.
Ensure that the Suggestions option is selected.
In the Length field, enter the number of beginning characters that you want JD Edwards Translation Tools to search on when finding matches.
For example, if you enter 5, JD Edwards Translation Tools uses the first five characters of source text to search for matching translated items.
If JD Edwards Translation Tools finds only one term and the Target field is blank, it automatically loads the text into the Target field. If the existing translation is accurate for the item, continue to step 7.
The Suggestion Search & Select button also appears here.
If JD Edwards Translation Tools finds more than one term, it displays the Suggestion Search & Select button with the text More Exists.
Note: The compressed description in the Source Search Text data field contains the search text without spaces, slashes, dashes, commas, or other special characters. The compressed description is the field that is used in the Data Dictionary Name Search.
Click the button or select Suggestions from the Form menu if you are not satisfied with the suggestion that was loaded.
On Suggestion - Search & Select, select the translation that you want to use.
Click Select.
The Resource Text Translation Text form appears, displaying the text that you chose from the Translation field.
Click OK.
The JD Edwards Translation Tool saves the translation and updates the status.
Click Next to move to the next translation item.
