Before you begin a translation job, identify the users who will function as translation managers during the translation workflow.
Translation manager users or groups are identified in the
Roles tab in a
Define Access Controls dialog. The role participants can be identified at the global level (through Global or Backstop Access Controls) for translation managers who oversee all translations performed in the repository. They can also be specified within the repository hierarchy on a cabinet or folder level so different users can serve as translation managers for different project areas. Objects contained by the cabinet or folder inherit the Access Control settings
unless inheritance is disabled.
Note: If a translation manager user or group is not specified at a the global level, they must also be identified on the Translation/Upload folder in the Administration cabinet. This is because the Upload folder does not inherit the Access Control settings if they are specified within the repository hierarchy.
- Identify the hierarchy level of the repository for the translation manager role:
- Global or Backstop Access Controls
- A repository cabinet or folder
- Access the Define Access Controls dialog for that level:
| Option |
Description |
|---|
| Global or Backstop Access Controls |
In the Workbench ribbon, select the Administration tab, then from the Security band, select either Global Access Controls or Backstop Access Controls. |
|---|
| Cabinet or folder |
Right-click the object and select . |
|---|
The Define Access Controls dialog appears.
- Click the Roles tab.
- In the Role Groups area, move the role group name you created for translation managers from the Available box to the Present box.
For example, select Translation Managers and click Add.
- Select the role group name in the Present box, then in the Details area Available Groups box move the user group you created for translation mangers to the Present box.
- Click OK.
- If you have specified the translation manager role at the cabinet or folder level, repeat these steps by selecting the Translation/Upload folder in the Administration cabinet and using the Define Access Controls command to add users or groups to the role.
The users identified by the role group can now function as translation managers for translation workflows for projects in the selected repository hierarchy. Translation managers receive email notifications (on start translation, and when the translation is imported) or when an invalid locale or package is detected for the job.
