This is SAP- it's for a manufacturing company. I am not sure about this Spanglish 'Controlling'. What's the deal? Should I translate it as 'control' where appropriate -where controlling would sound wrong, as in the context above (manufacturing control?)- or is it always 'controlling' in English too? Any advice? This SAP stuff is likely to kill me. Any help most gratefully received! Thanks in advance. :)

Explanation:
I always have to check SAP in order to translate terms.

Controlling is always Controlling.

Just one thing: if you are translating paths from SAP, you should have access to the program. There are some very weird translations and what you translate won't match the program and the users won't be able to follow the path. Just an advice of someone who has being there and done that!

Notes to answerer
Asker: Yeah this really isn't my thing- I'm doing it because I got pressured into it. Answering your question, the manual contains many images of the screens, but nearly all in Spanish, so at times it's very difficult to know how exactly this would be in English. Now if I had a version in English oh, my life would be so much easier! Thanks very much for your input, Fabiana. Much appreciated. :)
