Managing Codyt Jobs

Codyt projects run a continuous workflow, and you manage and translate their jobs from the Codyt jobs lists. This page shows where to find your Codyt jobs, how to read and search them, how to track progress, and how to assign and translate them.

Where to find your Codyt jobs

You can see Codyt jobs in two places:

• Across all projects: click Jobs in the main menu, then open the Codyt jobs tab. Use All my jobs for jobs assigned to you, or All company jobs for your whole company.

• Within one project: open the project, go to the 5. Jobs tab, and use View jobs, View documents, or View multilingual to change how items are grouped.

Reading the jobs list

Each row is one job. The columns are:

Finding jobs

Open the Search panel to filter the list. You can filter by Reference / Document, Project reference / ID, Assignment type, Supplier, Data range, Deadline, Task, and Source / Target language. Select Search to apply, Save search to keep a filter, or My searches to reuse one.

Tracking job progress

The Progress column shows how far a job has progressed without opening it. The bar splits the job's segments into four parts, with a % approved label:

To read and refresh a job's progress:

1. Hover the bar to see the total segment count, each part as a count and a percentage, and when the figures were last updated.

2. Click the bar to open the job's Counts & Activity view for the full breakdown.

3. Click the refresh icon next to the bar to recompute the figures on demand. The bar shows the last saved figures, so it can briefly differ from the live numbers until you refresh.

A job with no saved figures yet shows an empty bar with the refresh option; a job with no segments to track shows N/A. The column appears by default and can be hidden or reordered like any other column.

Segment status shown in the bar

A segment's status is grey (neutral), green (approved), or red (a problem). Each segment has a project-level global status, and, when per-job status is enabled, each job also keeps its own status so one workflow step's status does not overwrite another's. In a job you see and set that job's status; outside a job you see the global status. The Progress bar reflects the job's own statuses. A job turning a segment red while the global status is green drops the global status to grey; a job going all-green does not by itself approve segments at project level.

Make a workflow step approve segments project-wide

To let a specific step set the project-level status, open the project's Workflow & Suppliers tab and turn on Save segment status to the global segment status for that step. Every status change in that step (by hand or by QA) is then saved directly to the segment's shared (global) status, and the step keeps no separate status of its own. Enable it deliberately: a change in such a step, including by an external worker, can overwrite a shared status set by project-level QA.

This option is available only when segment status per job is enabled for your platform (see the note above); until then, the control is not shown on the Workflow & Suppliers tab.

Assigning and translating jobs

• Assign work: tick one or more rows, set the language and task in the filter, select Find, then assign to suppliers. Use Manage and Translate for per-row actions.

• Translate: select Translate on a row to open the document in the Editor; select Status to accept, decline, or change the job's status.

• Act on the list: use Print, Export, Import, and Actions for bulk operations.
