Receiving LSO rounds

Language Offices receive LSO (Linguistic sign off) rounds if they have been requested by the PMO in the workflow.

Before you begin

You must be a Translation Lead with the appropriate permissions within the group matrix to be able to view or re-assign LSO tasks to translators.

Procedure

  1. Within your Helix task list, locate and check the box for the LSO task.
  2. Scroll to the quick view area at the bottom of the page and review the details of the job.

    Note that these tasks can also be assigned to other Leads or Translators for completion by entering their name in the Assign To box. This then moves the task to their task list.
  4. Click Start to begin working on the task.

    Perform standard LSO activities.

  5. When the tasks are complete enter the LSO File Folder Location and add a Comment. Optionally you can add and comment and attachment at the same time, see task below.
