Once you have created a new word count profile, you will need to assign it to projectsto ensure an appropriate count for the document(s). In Wordbee it is possible to create two types of projects: Standard and CoDyt. Standard projects have limited automation, whereas CoDyt projects completely automate the project workflow and the financial administration for clients and suppliers.
You can assign a word count profile during the project creation step:
Go to Projects and click on New Project.
Select the project type: Standard or CoDyt.
Fill in the New project details.
Add documents.
Add resources.
Add word count profile.
Assign jobs.
Check work and delivery.
To assign a word count profile, go to Word Count tab and click on the Count words icon.
A new window will pop up displaying the settings of the word count profile.
Once jobs have been created and assigned, you can create a quote or an invoice based on the word count statistics report.
If you decide to change the word count profile while the project is running, this might impact the fuzzy match and pre-translation analysis, and consequently your financial calculations. Therefore, it is recommended that you change the word count profile only after all the current jobs have been completed. The new word count profile should be applied only to new documents within a running project.
In the next sections, you will learn how to assign a word count profile to each project type.
