Project details, Files tab
On the Files tab of the Project page you can:
- Upload files and links to the files received from your customer.
- See files and links assigned to and delivered by vendors.
- Upload and store files and links delivered to customers.
- Go to other tabs of the project: Details, Jobs, Finances and CAT logs.
Project input
This part of the page is intended for uploading input files of the project, i.e. the files you received from your customer.
To upload files into the system, press the "Upload" button.
Or you may add links to external files (file URLs) instead of uploading files to the system by pressing the "Add URLs" button.
Note: You can add several links (file URLs) at once if necessary. To do so, please put each file URL on a separate line:
Once you finish uploading, all files and links to files will be displayed in the list of project input files.
You may download any file or open a link by clicking on their names.
Also, you can download all files together by pressing "Download as ZIP" button.
Each file and link can be deleted by pressing the "Delete" button.
You can also delete a bunch of files and links at once. To do so, tick the ones you don't need anymore and press "Delete selected":
However, it can be done only if the file and link to the file are not currently used, i.e. have not been included in any job assigned to the vendor.
You can see the assignments below, in the Jobs Input section.
Note: You cannot delete project input files or links to files which are assigned to a vendor as the part of a job. The "Delete" button and check-box are not displayed in that case:
So, if you have already assigned a file to your vendor, you need to go to the Job input files section of the corresponding job (just click the job code in the Jobs Input section), then press "Manage input files", and unmark the checkbox in the file line.
After this, you'll be able to remove the file from the project if you have not assigned it to some other vendors too.
Jobs input
This section displays the files which are included in the jobs assigned to vendors (i.e. translators, proofreaders etc.).
You can download all files together by pressing the "Download as ZIP" button:
You may download any file or open a link by clicking on their names.
If you press a job code, you'll go to the job details page where you can manage the files of the job.
You may also go to the vendor profiles right from this section by clicking on their names.
Jobs output
This part of the page displays the files which were delivered by the vendors when they completed their jobs:
Similarly, to job input files, you may download any file by clicking its name or all the files together by pressing "Download as ZIP" button.
Also, you may go to details of the corresponding job by clicking its code or to Vendor profile by clicking their name.
Also, you may select the files and add them to the output:
Project output
This section of the page displays files and\or links to the files that you deliver to your customer.
You may add project output files and links in 2 ways:
1) By using the files and links from the job output, as described above.
2) By uploading them manually with the "Upload additional files" and "Add file URLs" buttons correspondingly. Manually uploaded files and links are displayed in the additional table:
You can remove files and links from the project output by selecting them and pressing the "Unlink selected" button.
Also, you can delete manually uploaded project output files and links by pressing the "Delete" button:
Again, you may download any file or open a link by clicking on their names, or download all the files together by pressing "Download files as ZIP" button.
