Idea Delivered

I think we have delivered this before in a CU. Basically the order no longer matters. It used to, but not anymore since SR2 for Studio 2015. Internally, we tracked this as LG-7045 and after the fix, our QA department said the following: "Sorting the files after Name, Words, Status, Progress, Size and Usage does not affect the Report results. All reports have the same content." Would this satisfy this requirement (i.e. you can order as you like and will always get consistent results), or am I missing something?

Choose file order for Analyze Files batch task

A client may need the translations in a project with multiple documents and cross-file repetitions to be delivered in a specified order. The ability to specify this file order for the Analyze Files batch task would provide us with accurate analysis results based on the order the translator will have to translate the files in. The end result is of course the same if all the documents will be translated by one and the same translator, but this would help us in setting separate deadlines and creating separate purchase orders.

  • Hi Daniel,

    If I'm not mistaken, the files are now always in alphabetical order in the analysis report. So it does indeed not matter whether the files are sorted by name, status, etc. in the Files view.

    However, we may sometimes need results that are not consistent. For example, a client may send Doc A, Doc B and Doc C and ask to have Doc B delivered first. It would then be useful to be able to manually specify the file order for the analysis task, i.e. Doc C first, followed by Doc A and Doc B. This would provide us with more accurate analysis results (in the case of cross-file repetitions) when planning and managing the separate tasks.

    Regards, Lieven
