Monitoring Translation Status

After you send out jobs for translation, you can monitor their status. The Lionbridge App updates the status at different milestones in the translation process.

  • You can view the translation status of all translation jobs together, and archive or delete completed jobs, in the Translation Jobs tab, as described on Monitoring Translation Jobs.
  • You can view the translation status of individual items within a translation job, and view source and translated assets, in the Job Details tab, as described on Monitoring Translation Job Details.

For a list and description of translation statuses, see Translation Statuses.

1 - Translation Statuses

After you send out Oracle Eloqua assets for translation, they are referred to as items.

An item is an asset that is being translated into a specific target language. For example, if you are translating 100 assets from one source language into three target languages, then there are 300 items.

The Lionbridge App sends out one or more items for translation as a single translation job. Items can have the following translation statuses:

Note: The status icons are displayed only on the non-maximized version of the Job Details tab.

Status Icon Description
