Step 15: Delete Items from the Workflow

Once you have created and populated your Content Groups, you then create a target-language document with a translation workflow.

By definition, translation jobs have both a source language and a target language. In order to leverage tools such as a translation memory (TM), we need both of these languages to be available in the workflow.

Given that an Adobe® InDesign® document is monolingual, we will need both our original source-language document and a separate target-language document. The target-language document is named a Version.

This is an excerpt from the workshop: Create a Translation Workflow.

Delete Items from Workflows

If you need to remove an item from the workflow track, you can do so via that item's option menu while the workflow is not running.

  1. Language: Delete the target language from the workflow.
    • Please remember that you will need a target language to run the translation job.
  2. User: Delete a user from a workflow step.
    • Please remember that you require at least one user in a workflow step for that job to exist.
  1. Action: Delete an action from the workflow.
    • Once the action has been deleted, it will no longer execute.
  2. Workflow Step: Delete a review step from the workflow.
    • You cannot delete the Edit step.
    • You cannot delete all Review steps from the workflow track. If you require no review jobs, simply remove all users from the Review step.

NOTE: If the workflow is running, then some option menus will not appear. Also, the Delete option will not be available while the workflow is running.
