Archive translation jobs

After a vendor completes the translation work or you've cancelled a job, you may want to remove it from the list on the Translations Management tab to keep the list short. If you want to keep the job details but just hide the job from the list, you can use the Archive option.

You must have permission to be a translation coordinator or an administrator before you can work with translation jobs.

Tips and tricks

  • The content of the translated job is not removed when you archive a job from the list on the Translations Management tab.
    • The translation source files and translated file copies still exist in their folders, which you can find on the Components tab.
    • If you want to view details about a translation job from the list again, you can search for the job you archived. Make sure to select the Include Archived option before clicking the search icon search_button.
  • After you archive a job, if you want to remove job details from the list permanently, you can delete it.
  • For reporting purposes, you can also export a list of translations to a comma-separated value (CSV) file after the translation jobs have been completed or cancelled.
