English translation:operative implementation
Explanation:
It all depends on what is being umgesetzt - Umsetzung = 1. selling, turning over; 2. implementation, realization, putting into force
[Zahn, Bank- und Börsenwesen]
In conjunction with operative, I would suspect that something is being implemented.

Umwandlung/Umsetzung are not exactly synonymous; conversion/transformation would apply only to funds, e.g. liabilities, debentures, reserves, etc.
[cf. Zahn]

You'll have determine from the context whether it's an implementation or a conversion.

functional transversion


Explanation:
'operativ' in German is not necessarily 'operative' in English-- it does depend on the context. However, I believe that 'functional' serves the purpose here, since 'operativ' in German simply indicates an action as a process. Therefore, the functional transversion of ... will be functional during a certain process.
