Creating a job

This topic describes the main steps for creating a job.

Procedure

  1. Put the files to be translated into a .zip file. Place any reference files in a separate .zip file. Depending on the speed of your internet connection, you may prefer to create a number of .zip files rather than one very large one.
  2. In the navigation pane, click Home > Create Job. The Create Job screen is displayed on the right, comprising several tabs which you need to fill in.

  3. Enter data into the mandatory tabs: Job Details, Files, Languages & TM. Fill in the Job Details tab first.
  4. Click Submit to create the job. The selected files are now uploaded to SDL TMS.
  5. After the files are uploaded successfully to SDL TMS, an information message is displayed. To exit the screen, either click a link in the message or another option in the navigation pane.
