Aufgaben

Create and assign tasks to get files translated or proofread by specific members or vendors. You can set the due dates, split words between assignees, receive notifications about the changes and updates in tasks, and discuss the task with other project members in comments.

Creating New Task

1. Open your project and go to the Tasks tab.
2. Click Create Task.
   Note: One task can be assigned to one project only.

   

3. Name the task and add a description (optional).
4. Set the task parameters:
   • Type – select between Translate, Proofread, Translate by vendor, and Proofread by vendor.
     Note: In the Proofread mode, all the strings in the file, excluding the approved ones, will be added to the task.
   • Fälligkeitsdatum (optional) – Setzen Sie eine Frist.
   • Strings – select all the strings or only the modified ones during a specific period. If you select the modified strings, only those will be added to the task, not the whole file.
   • Filter by labels (optional) – select the labels that the filtered strings should be marked with.
   • Skip strings already included in other tasks – select or clear this option depending on your preferences.
   • Files – select files that should be translated or require proofreading.
   • Languages – select target languages (a separate task will be created for each selected language). The Untranslated Words column shows the total number of words added to the task.
5. Click Assign to assign users to the task for each language separately.
6. Click Create Task.

Q&A

Q: How the source file updates affect the existing translation and proofreading tasks? A: After the source file update, the list of source strings included in the task will be updated the following way:

• The strings removed from the source file during the update will be removed from the task.
• The modified strings marked with the Keep Translations option will appear in the task with the new modified text.
• The newly added strings won’t affect the existing task in any way.

If the source file is restored to the revision, containing the removed strings, they will reappear in the task.
