As a language specialist, you will be required to work on different assignments within projects. In Wordbee Translator these assignments are called Jobs. Once your project manager has assigned a specific job to you, you will receive an automatic email notification from Wordbee Translator containing the job details and the access link.
You will need to:
1. Analyse the job details and word count as described in Accept/Decline jobs in Wordbee Translator.
2. Officially accept the job.
Before accepting the job, you might also need to:
Accept your client's terms and conditions in order to confirm your availability.
Preview the job's content in the CAT Editor.
Here you will learn:
How to access the CAT Editor
There are different ways to open your working file in the Editor:
Option 1
Use the job link that has been sent to you in the email notification to access the Job Details page. Then, depending on the job type you can directly:
Click Conduct Work (for Standard jobs).
Click Translate (for Codyt jobs).
Option 2
Navigate using the Jobs widget on the homepage to select either the Codyt or Standard jobs assigned to you.
Option 3
Navigate using the main bar to the jobs page and click All my jobs.
Do the same as above for the jobs that are already assigned to you. Depending on your user profile, you may be able to see All company jobs and enter the Translation Editor for other jobs available to your whole team. You will also find job openings that are not yet accepted.
Confirm your availability to the project manager and your team
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 at the top of the screen
You will notice it is not possible to edit the segments of your job if you have not confirmed your availability:
Remember
Note that if you are part of a group assignment, other users may get exclusive access to the file if they confirm faster than you do.
You can learn about the Job bar within the editor in the dedicated page.
Once you accept the job, the locks will disappear and you will have the possibility to edit the segments and use all other features in the Multicolumn Editor.
