This page will give you a preview of all the actions that you can take while translating or reviewing translations within the Workbench. This page is tailored towards actions that involve the act of translation, not actions like modifying shortcuts or changing the view of the Workbench. It includes links to additional documentation when more details are necessary. 

Workbench actions are not permission-based. If an action is not available to you, please contact your project manager.
