When the assigned users receive notification of a pending assignment, they must check out the assigned file from the SDL Trados GroupShare server.
Procedure
- In SDL Trados Studio, go to the Projects view, and double-click a project published on SDL Trados GroupShare to open it.
Tip: Alternatively, click the link in the notification email to open your SDL Trados GroupShare project to your assigned documents.
- In the Files view, select the file you want to check out.
- On the Home tab, select Check out.
Tip: When users check out their assigned files, SDL Trados GroupShare shows this information in the Checked out to column in the Projects view.
Important: You cannot check out from SDL Trados Studio, files which are already checked out in SDL Online Editor. You can open these files in the SDL Trados Studio for consultation purposes only. Do not make any local changes to the file while it is checked out in SDL Online Editor. Wait until the file is checked in from SDL Online Editor, and only then check it out from SDL Trados Studio.
- On the Home tab, select one of the following: Open For Translation, Open For Review, Open For Sign-off, depending on your assigned tasks and project phases.
- Start working on the file.
