German term or phrase: Arbeitsvorräte
Hi all:)
I have another sentence to the same translation:

"Die Software generiert dabei zur Optimierung des Übersetzungsprozesses Arbeitsvorräte auf der Basis von Anderungsbelegen und exportiert dadurch auch nur Texte, die neu hinzugekommen sind."

Mein Problem ist mit "Arbeitsvorräte"

How do you all understand this?
Thanks so much for your help!

Explanation:
would be my guess. Sounds as if the program creates "work lists", i.e. lists of text that needs to be processed, based on change documents, thus exporting only the text that needs translating. Given current CAT terminology, maybe something with "segments" would also fit.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Steffen Walter: FWIW, my (fairly comprehensive) SAP glossary also has "work/operation queue" for "Arbeitsvorrat".
