XTM Academy

Task

  • Processing a bundle in one step is a task.

  • Tasks are assigned to linguists or LSPs.

  • From their copy of XTM, LSPs will assign their linguists to these tasks.

  • A specific piece of content to translate (bundle).

  • A specific language combination assigned to this bundle,

  • A unique workflow step is assigned to this bundle.

  • A specific linguist, or LSP assigned to the configured bundle (I.e a bundle that has had CONTENT, a language combination and a workflow step assigned to it)

  • A task is assigned to the linguist when a project is started.

  • When a linguist logs in to XTM they will see all of the tasks assigned to them in a task list.

  • Clicking on the task in this list opens XTM Workbench (CAT tool) with the properly configured bundle that they need to work on.

  • Alternately when a task is assigned, the linguist receives an e-mail notification with all the task details and a link that opens XTM Workbench (CAT tool) with the segments that need to be worked on.

  • From their own instance of XTM, LSPs will see all of the projects that you as the contractor have started and which contain workflow steps that this LSP has been assigned to.

  • Within these projects, the LSP will only see the bundles containing the workflow steps that this LSP has been assigned to.

  • LSPs will then assign these bundles to their own linguists.

  • The LSP will then start this project from their own instance.

    At which point their own linguists will receive an e-mail notification with all the task details and a link that will open the LSPs instance of XTM workbench (CAT tool) with the bundles that they need to be worked on.

  • Alternately when a linguist working for an LSP logs in to sub-XTM they will see all of the tasks assigned to them in a task list.

    Clicking on the task in this list opens XTM Workbench (CAT tool) with the properly configured bundle that they need to work on.
