A job awaiting acceptance: action card on top, brief and discussion below.

  • Action card: Titled "Awaiting your acceptance", noting who assigned the job to your team and the due date. Accept is the primary action, with Decline alongside.
  • Brief: Contains Instructions and Delivery criteria. If empty, it displays "Not provided"—ask in the discussion if unclear.
  • Progress: Outlines four phases: Issue → Translate → Deliver → Accept, alongside progress bars per language. Progress includes pre-filled baseline translations.

Accept

Click Accept; the job moves to "Translating", the action card updates with progress details, and Open editor appears in the details page and More menu.

Decline

    Click Decline

    Click Decline on the action card to open the Decline this job dialog.

    Provide reason

    State why your team cannot accept in the Reason field—such as volume constraints, unsupported language pairs, or tight deadlines.

  3. 3

    Confirm

    Click Confirm. The job is marked declined, and the requester receives an event to reassign or cancel.
