Configuring job ID prefix

The <JobIdPrefix> element in the TranslationManager.xml file specifies a prefix which is appended to each Translation Job sent to the translation management system.

About this task

If you are running multiple Translation Manager Services against the same translation management system, the value must be unique for each one so that you can identify on the translation management system where the Translation Jobs originated.

The <JobIdPrefix> is a mandatory element set by default to the value of the computer name on which Translation Manager is installed.

Procedure

  1. Open the TranslationManager.xml file in a text editor.
    By default, the file is located in your %TRIDION_HOME%\config directory.
  2. In the <JobIdPrefix> section, enter a logical string. For example:
    <JobIdPrefix>Amsterdam_</JobIdPrefix>
  3. Save and close the file.
