Change Task Status

You can use task status in the task list for your own internal tracking of a task's status. A task's status changes to “In Progress” automatically when you save a translation in the Translation Workbench. In addition, it changes to “Exported” and “Imported” when those events occur. You can also change a task's status manually (except that you cannot manually change the status to “Exported” or “Imported”).

To change the status of a task.

Double-click the status icon of the task.
Select the appropriate status in the Change Task Status dialog box.
Click OK.

The status icon changes in the task list.

Changing the status of a task through this dialog box does not change the task itself in any way. For example, changing the task status to Completed does not complete the task and forward it to the next step in the workflow, it simply indicates that you are ready to complete the step.
