Overview

With the Approve All  feature allows a linguist to quickly Segments feature, you can approve all eligible segments at once quickly. You can approve all segments from in the Workbench, or within the TMS on the Documents tab or Task List. 

Approve All Explanation 

The "Approve All" feature only pulls translations from the phase immediately before the current phase and then saves them. The Approve All action will NOT pull translations from any phase except the phase immediately before the current phase.  Segments without a translation in the current phase now show as "Needs Approval" (because there wasn't a translation to approve) until a translation is actually entered for the current phase, even after running "Approve All."

   1. Optionally, check Auto-Apply Tags to automatically apply formatting tags to the document. Note: Our system makes a best guess at tag placement.  If you use this feature, tags will need to reviewed by a linguist for accuracy. 

   2. Also optional is Updating TM for all approved segments. This is not recommended as it includes any updating TM from fuzzy matches and machine translation.

Using the Approve All Segment feature

The Approve All Segments feature takes the most current translation it can find and saves it to your phase if the previous phase is complete. If the previous phase is not complete, you can only approve segments that are completed in the previous phase unless the previous phase is complete. Unsaved translations or edits in your phase are saved by the Approve All option.
