Delivering Finished Packages

These instructions demonstrate how you can transmit finished packages from your Across Server, i.e. the Trusted Server, to the Master Server in the crossGrid module. You can either upload the packages to the Master Server (crossGrid online) or export them in the form of a GRU (Grid Response Unit) file (crossGrid classic). Subsequently, you need to make this GRU file available to the project manager on the Master Server side, e.g. for download via a file hosting platform or by e-mail.

The crossGrid Deliver Wizard assists you in transmitting finished packages to the Master Server.

Attention

Please note that you need to have the appropriate rights.

By default, the project manager is designated for this type of task.

Attention

Please note that the crossTank and crossTerm entries that were transmitted by the Master Server for processing the delegated tasks or that were created while processing the tasks will be deleted after the tasks are finished and uploaded to the Master Server and will no longer be available to you.

crossGrid online

  1. Proceed as follows:
  2. In the module bar on the left-hand side, click Projects > crossGrid to enter the crossGrid module.
  3. In the bottom right pane, select the package you want to transmit to the Master Server and click Deliver in order to start the crossGrid Deliver Wizard for the transmission of finished packages to the Master Server.
  4. Once the wizard has started, click Next.
  5. Select the option Deliver package directly to the Master Server.

    Click Next.

    Attention

    When a task is sent back to a Master Server, the system will not only transmit the crossTerm entries that were modified or newly created while processing the respective task to the Across Server; all crossTerm entries that were modified or newly created while processing all tasks assigned to the Trusted Server by the respective Master Server will be transmitted. This applies to the crossTerm entries in the language combinations that concern the task to be transmitted.

  6. Click Finish.

    The relevant data will be compiled and uploaded to the Master Server.

    To track this process, click Background tasks at the bottom right in the client in order to open the Background Tasks Progress dialog. Once the Background tasks button is no longer displayed, all data have been uploaded.

  7. A dialog will inform you when the transmission is finished.

    Click the Report button in order to generate proof of the delivery of the crossGrid package.

  8. Click OK in order to close the dialog.
  9. You will receive a system message as soon as the transferred files have been processed by the Master Server.
    Tip

    Apart from the report, you can also view the transmission history of crossGrid packages for detailed information on the history of crossGrid packages.

    You can open the transmission history by selecting a crossGrid package in the crossGrid module and clicking Properties.

    Go to the Status tab and click Transmission history.
