User Guide

1 - Welcome to the Connector

Welcome to the Lionbridge Connector for SAP Commerce (“Connector”) version 3.0. This is Lionbridge’s connector for SAP Commerce and Hybris. The Connector enables you to automate sending and retrieving localized attributes in business objects, which dramatically reduces the effort required to create, maintain, and publish these items in multiple languages.

1.1 - The Translation Lifecycle

The translation lifecycle is the broad process of selecting content, sending it out for translation, and then receiving the translated content back from translation.

This set of steps usually fits inside a larger, more general process called the content lifecycle, which is the process of creating, reviewing, editing, approving, and publishing content.

When you consider the translation lifecycle and the content lifecycle together, you have the global content value chain, which is the strategy for managing multilingual content.

Remember that localizing content is a subset of steps in the broader content lifecycle. This will improve your focus on key localization considerations, improve processes, and keep all content stakeholders included. Together, this results in better content management.

1.2 - How the Connector Helps You Manage Your Translation Lifecycle

The Lionbridge Connector for SAP Commerce (“Connector”) is a plug-in module for Hybris, SAP Commerce, and SAP Commerce Cloud. It provides a range of features and user interface enhancements that enable you to select, send, monitor, and retrieve content for translation into any supported language.

These features automate the process, which dramatically reduces the effort and time required to export and re-import content that needs to be localized. This is very helpful when translating large volumes of content or ensuring that translated content is quickly re-imported to meet deadlines.

When you use the Connector, you manage your translation lifecycle entirely from within Hybris, SAP Commerce, or SAP Commerce Cloud (“e-commerce platform”):

  1. The Connector exports your content from the e-commerce platform in XML format and delivers these content files to the central, hosted Lionbridge Content API Platform.
  2. The Lionbridge Content API Platform delivers your content to your translation providers, based on routing rules that your company chooses and the Lionbridge Connector Team implements.
  3. When the translated content is ready, the Lionbridge Content API Platform retrieves it from your translators and delivers it to the Connector.
  4. The Connector automatically re-imports the content into the correct location in the e-commerce platform.

You can then review, revise, reject, or publish the translated content as needed.

Note: Neither the Connector nor the Lionbridge Content API Platform performs any translation. Similarly, the Lionbridge Connector Team does not provide any translation services. Your company chooses the translation provider that performs the translation.

1.3 - Using this Guide

Purpose of this guide

This guide describes how to use the Lionbridge Connector (“Connector”) for SAP Commerce to manage your translation lifecycle. It describes how to send out localized strings in certain business objects for translation and receive them back from translation.

Who should use this guide

This guide is intended for content editors, project, marketing, localization or translation managers, or others who are responsible for creating, editing, or approving business objects for translation. This guide is also useful for translation providers who receive business objects  from your Hybris, SAP Commerce, or SAP Commerce Cloud installation, because it describes your company’s translation management process.

What your company setup should be

This document assumes that:

  • Your company already has a functioning instance of Hybris, SAP Commerce, or SAP Commerce Cloud.
  • The Connector has been installed, configured, and tested on your Hybris, SAP Commerce, or SAP Commerce Cloud instance.
  • The Lionbridge Connector Team has set up the Lionbridge Content API Platform to send localized strings in certain business objects to your translation providers.
What you should already know

This document assumes that:

  • You are familiar with the Connector’s configuration for Hybris, SAP Commerce, or SAP Commerce Cloud, and the reasons for choosing certain configuration options. This is important because your company’s configuration determines which features are available.
  • You have a strong working knowledge of Hybris, SAP Commerce, or SAP Commerce Cloud, particularly the following modules:
  • Hybris Backoffice

  • You have valid user credentials to log into the Hybris, SAP Commerce, or SAP Commerce Cloud modules listed above.
  • You are familiar with your company’s translation process and requirements.
  • You have the required permissions to access the Connector functionality described in this guide.

Note: Not all the features described in this guide may be available. Feature availability depends on both your company’s Connector setup and the roles to which you are assigned.

3.8 - Sending Items for Translation from the Translation Queue

The goal of the Translation Queue is to control translation costs and the translation process. This design assumes that the person with the authority to send content for translation from the Translation Queue manages the translation budget of the organization.

You can send out one, multiple, or all items from the Translation Queue at one time.

You originally submitted items to the Translation Queue by doing one of the following:

Submitting content to the Translation Queue before sending it out for translation has the following advantages:

  • You may not want to send out the localized attributes in each business object individually as soon as you finish reviewing it. The Translation Queue facilitates your management of reviewed items, so that you do not forget about sending individual reviewed items for translation.
  • Your translation provider may prefer receiving fewer but larger batches of items to translate, rather than items from individual business objects, as it facilitates project preparation, resource assignment, and content analysis.
  • If you want to translate many items into multiple languages, but you want to translate into only one target language at a time, this is a good way to manage that process.
  • The Translation Queue manager may want to route jobs to certain translation providers.
  • The Translation Queue manager may want to add job-specific metadata, such as a purchase order number.

If you or your colleagues have sent items to the Translation Queue, you must access the Translation Queue to send out the items from there.

Note: If you do not send out items from the Translation Queue, the items remain in the queue, and the Connector does not send them out for translation.

To submit one or more items from the Translation Queue for translation:
  1. Do one of the following:
  • In Hybris:
  1. In your Web browser, navigate to /backoffice/ on your Hybris instance.
  2. Log in to the Hybris Backoffice.
  3. In the Administration menu, select Translation Queue.
  • In SAP Commerce or SAP Commerce Cloud:
  1. In your Web browser, navigate to /backoffice/ on your SAP Commerce instance or on SAP Commerce Cloud.
  2. Log in to SAP Commerce or SAP Commerce Cloud.
  3. In the Administration Cockpit menu, select Translation Queue.

The Translation Queue opens.

The following information is displayed about each item in the queue:

  1. Item Name: The name of the business object to send for translation. If the name is long, this wraps to the next row.
  2. Source Language: The name and language code of the source language of the business object to send for translation. This was specified when the business object was added to the queue.
  3. Target Language: The name and language code of the target language into which to translate the business object.

Note: If you specified translating a business object into multiple target languages, then each instance of a source language-target language pair is displayed in a separate row in the list, as a separate item. For example, if you want to translate a business object into five languages, then there are five rows in the list, one for each target language.

  1. Date Added: The date the business object was added to the queue, in the following format: MM/DD/YYYY.

The header and footer display information about how many items are in the queue, and how they are displayed. If there are more than 25 items in the queue, they are displayed in multiple sub-pages.
