Each project has a task list, which displays the tasks in the project. To view the task list, click the project name link in . You can choose to view the following subsets of tasks in a project via the View menu.
- all tasks claimed by you
- all tasks assigned to you
- all active tasks (all except hidden and deleted tasks)
- all tasks in the project
- completed tasks
- canceled tasks
- all tasks with changed assets
- active tasks with changed assets
- tasks on human steps
- tasks on automatic steps
- tasks on error steps
- tasks on cancel steps
- tasks on parallel review steps
- tasks on sub-workflow steps
These options appear on the Task List page.
To See Task Information
Click the task number link in the Task List to view general information about a task, including the project name, workflow, and the source and target asset paths as well as the task history and a diagram of the workflow.
To See Project Information
Click View Project Information to view general information about the project, including the locale, workgroup, description, and creation date.
You can also view the scoping information by clicking
View Scoping Information. In the
Scope dialog box, you can view the word count and pricing information according to the cost model and scoping configuration applied to the project. You can also download the cost information to a comma-separated values (CSV) file that you can open in spreadsheet software to further refine, review offline, or distribute. Your administrator must have set up at least one cost model. See the
"Cost Models" section of the
"Linguistic Tools Setup" chapter in the
SDL WorldServer™ Administrator Guide for more information.
Note: If you do not have permission to view the cost model assigned to the project, WorldServer displays a message to that effect. Contact your WorldServer administrator for assistance.
Asset Viewer
The Viewer allows you to see, and sometimes edit, the asset on which a task is based. This is helpful while you are working on a task and want to see a preview. You can view the source asset or the target asset in the following modes:
| Mode | Description |
|---|
| Preview | Displays the asset as it appears in its rendered form. | | Data | Displays the source code of the asset, if textual. | | Edit | Allows you to edit a single segment directly within the Viewer. If the type of the asset allows for this Click and Edit feature, the Edit button is available. | | Data Diff | Displays the asset, highlighting changes that occurred between the current version and an earlier version, in source form. Available only for mounts that support versioning. | | Context Diff | Shows differences between asset versions in their rendered form. Available for a limited set of mounts only. | | Context | Displays the asset in context with surrounding assets. For context mode to work, your administrator needs to have set the Context URL property. (Talk to your administrator and see the WorldServer online help for details about how to do this.) | | Information | Displays information about the asset, such as path, locale, Context URL, translation memory, terminology database, file type configuration, entry form, triggers, and AIS mask. |
