Important!
Editors must use either Google Chrome or Firefox. Once the files are in Validation, the files cannot be pushed back to the translators for editing. Any changes made by editors must be final.
Side Panel
The Side Panel within the Validation Platform contains vital information about the active segment when Validating content. Information you can view is:
- Terminology
- Search
- Context
- Settings
- Filters
- Activity
Indicators (Red Dot) will appear on the side panel when an item has information available for the segment currently selected.
Segment Navigator
The Segment Navigator provides two options for moving around a batch and displays information about the current location within the batch.
You can click the arrow button to move to the next unvalidated segment, or enter in the segment number that you wish to navigate to.
Segments
When you click on a segment, the segment becomes ‘active’.
Active segments are shown by the blue border around the sides of the text editor.
Segment Status
The below symbols are used to show the different segment statuses.

Inline Tags
In just about every instance, our translators will have already applied inline tags to already translated content. There shouldn’t be any need to change or add tags.
Source & Target tags must match. If they do not match, then the Validation Platform will not allow you to save.
