Creating Reports

The Editor lets you generate formatted business reports from your translation data. Whether you need to document revision activity, measure post-editing effort, or capture the results of a QA check, you can create and download a report directly from the Editor as an Excel file.

  • Generating a report: select your source and target languages, choose a report type, and download the result.

  • Available report types: standard types cover all segments, revisions, post-edits, document translations with comments, and QA issues. Custom report templates added by your administrator also appear in the list.


Generating a Report

Reports are created from the Export menu in the top menu bar. This option is available in all scope types.

Follow these steps to generate a report:

  1. Click Export in the top menu bar, then select Create Report.

  2. In the Create Report dialog, select the Source language.

  3. Select the Target language. The report will include content for this language pair.

  4. Choose a Report type from the dropdown. A short description appears below the dropdown explaining what the selected report includes.

  5. Click Create Report to generate and download the file.

The Create Report dialog showing Source and Target language dropdowns and the Report type selector with a description of the selected report type visible below.

The report is generated as an Excel file and downloaded automatically. Depending on the amount of data, generation may take a moment.


Report Types

The Report type dropdown lists all report templates available for your scope. This includes the standard types described below, along with any custom templates your administrator has configured.

Report Type

Description

All

Exports all segments with source and target content.

Revisions

Exports segments that contain human revisions.

Post-edits

Exports segments where a human editor modified machine translations or pretranslations.

Document translations, revisions and comments

Exports all source texts and translations for the current document, including revision history and comments in a reviewer-friendly format.

Document translations, revisions and comments for all language versions

Same as above, but includes translations for all target languages in a single report.

QA Issues Report

Exports all QA issues detected during quality assurance checks, with details on each issue. See below.

QA Issues Report

The QA Issues Report (report template S720) exports QA check results as an Excel file, with one row per QA issue detected. This is useful when you want a detailed record of QA activity at any stage: during review, at the end of a project, or for audit purposes.

Each row in the report includes:

  • Segment information: document name, segment number, and segment ID.

  • Source and target text: the content of the segment in both languages.

  • QA details: the severity level, rule name, and a description of the issue.

  • Dismiss status: whether the issue has been dismissed as a false positive.

The report can cover all documents in the project or only the document currently open in the Editor.

Note

The QA Issues Report relies on cached QA results. Run a QA check before generating the report so that the latest issues are included. If no QA data is available for the selected scope, the report will be empty.
