View scoping information

You can determine how many words there are in a particular project, and how much the translation will cost, based on a selected cost model.

Procedure

  1. In the Project view, choose a project.
  2. In the task list of the project, choose a task for which to view scoping information.
  3. Click View scoping information.
    WorldServer displays the following scoping information:
    PropertyDescription
    Scoping ConfigurationThe scoping configuration applied to this project scoping.
    Cost ModelThe cost model associated with the scoping configuration, if applicable. You must have individual or group permissions to view the cost model.
    Total Based on Price per WordThe cost of the translation of the project based solely on the application of the scoping configuration and the cost model.
    Manual AdjustmentThe Manual Adjustment field is for adding ad hoc charges or discounts. Clicking Recalculate Grand Total regenerates the value for Grand Total.
    Grand TotalThe total cost of the translation based on the application of the scoping configuration and the cost model and any ad hoc charges or discounts applied in the Manual Adjustment field.
    Vendor’s NotesA text field that allows the vendor to save comments for future reference.
    Customer’s NotesA text field that allows the customer to save comments for future reference.
    Number of Word in each Match Range per Asset tableThe table displays the charges based on price-per-word at different match ranges, and the line items, based on the applied scoping configuration and cost model. The table also displays the number of words in each translation memory match category. The MT Fuzzy Words column indicates the number of words where the best translation came from machine translation (rather than translation memory). This can help you understand the benefit that you are getting from machine translation.
  4. You can choose to download the resulting cost model evaluation (minus any additional charges and discounts) as a comma-separated values (CSV) file that you can open in Microsoft Excel, by clicking Download as CSV file and saving to a local directory.
  5. Click OK.
