Standard Workflows

The following overview shows the predefined standard workflows.

Tip

While working on their tasks (correction, review, and release), reviewers and correctors can delegate paragraphs containing errors or inaccuracies back to the translator. To delegate a paragraph back, set it to the editing state Touched ( icn_cDesk_zustand_bearbeitet ).

Further information on delegating paragraphs back to translators is available at: Redelegation to the Translator.

Translation

The Translation workflow only includes the translation of documents; these documents may or may not have been partitioned.

Translation and Correction

The Translation and correction workflow includes the translations that may have been partitioned, and their subsequent correction.

Advanced

The Advanced workflow consists of the following tasks: preparation, term extraction, term translation, document translation, and document correction. As part of the preparation work, the assigned project manager locks or hides segments in the source document and adds comments if necessary. The term extraction is then carried out, followed by the term translation. Once this has been completed, the translation of documents - which may have been partitioned - and their subsequent correction can be carried out.

Terminology Work and Translation

The Terminology work and translation workflow consists of the following tasks: term extraction, term translation and document translation. The term extraction is carried out first, followed by the term translation. Only then can the translation of the documents, which may have been previously partitioned, take place.

External editing

The External editing workflow provides the option of editing documents outside Across. This includes such tasks as translating document formats that are not supported or post-editing translations (for example, changing formatting, content, etc.). The workflow is managed within Across: for example, a translator receives his or her translation task in Across, translates it outside Across and transfers the completed translation from within Across to the responsible project manager.

Further information on the external editing of documents is available under: Editing Documents Outside Across.

Terminology work, translation, and correction

The Terminology work, translation, and correction workflow consists of the following tasks: term extraction, term translation, document translation, and document correction. The term extraction is carried out first, followed by the term translation. Once this has been completed, the translation of documents - which may have been partitioned - and their subsequent correction can be carried out.

Translation, review, and correction

The workflow Translation, review, and correction comprises the translation of documents (which may be partitioned), the review of translations (possibly via the Internet with crossWeb), and the subsequent correction of the reviewed document.

EN 15038 Standard

Attention

From v7.0 9618, the EN 15038 Standard workflow is replaced by the ISO 17100 Standard workflow.

If you do not use the EN 15038 Standard workflow, you can delete it in the Workflows module from this version on.

The EN 15038 Standard workflow comprises the preparation, the translation, and the subsequent correction of the documents, which may be partitioned. This is followed by a review and a final release of the documents processed.

Further information on the EN 15038 Standard workflow is available under: The EN 15038 Standard Workflow.

ISO 17100 Standard

The ISO 17100 Standard workflow comprises the preparation, the translation, and the subsequent correction of the documents, which may be partitioned. This is followed by a review, a proofreading step and a final release of the documents processed.
