  2. Log in using your email and password.
  3. The Customer Portal Dashboard opens.
  4. Click In progress in the menu at the top. The Translation jobs in progress page opens.

This page shows the list of translation jobs in progress.

Depending on your user role in Customer Portal, you will see different things on this page. Your provider's PM can help you if you are not sure about your role.

  • Observer and Manager users can see all the jobs requested by someone in their company, and use the Select contact box on the upper right to see jobs requested by a specific contact person.
  • Requester users can only see the jobs they requested. They do not have the Select contact box and the table's Contact column.

    To quickly check a job's progress: hover your mouse pointer over its progress bar. Three percentages appear, showing progress of the Translation, Review 1 and Review 2 stages:
