How workers access the Editor and confirm their availability

As a supplier, you will be required to work in different tasks within projects (jobs). You will need to:

1. Analyse the job details and word count to accept or decline the job. Analysing the job details is something you will do in the platform dashboards, as described in this page above.

Once you have decided to commit to the task, then you can move forward and

2. Officially confirm your availability (and eventually accept the terms and conditions your client is imposing) and access the CAT editor to perform your job! You can actually perform both of these actions from the Editor, by using the status bar on the top of the screen. See below how to do this:

Change the status of your job to "In progress" so it is clear that you are working on the document. You will find this option in the top of the screen
