Report S720 - QA report
This report is useful for users who want to capture the QA activity at any time (in a job, in the workflow during or at the end of the project, etc.). It shows in-depth information about the translations, QA issues, their type and severity, among other fields.
New
The ‘Ignored’ information has been recently improved to mark false-positives (feature currently available in Flex-related scenarios).
If the report has been generated via API, it can also gather information for several target languages.
Create from the Translation Editor
This report is created in the Translation Editor from the "Export" menu option. You can open the editor from a project, a job, or a Flex container. The report cannot be generated for translation memories or term bases.
A manager-level user can then select this report template and any customized versions you may have added.
A user who is not given the right to access all projects will not be able to create such reports.
Create from business Reports page
When creating a report from My Company > Reports, it will select a random document. Therefore, we advise you to test your report directly from the Translation Editor.
