Confirm (Signed Off) 
Translations are confirmed at segment level. When you have finished translating a segment or if you want to approve a translation during review, you should confirm the segment. Depending on if you have the document open for translation, review or sign-off, different options are available to confirm the translation is complete or to approve the translation.
To confirm a segment translation, press Ctrl+Enter or press the following in the Editor view > Home tab > Segment Actions group:
Confirm (Translated)
Confirm (Translation Approved)
Confirm (Signed Off)
|
NOTE |
You can also confirm a group of translations by holding down the Ctrl key and clicking on the segment number column to select the rows you want to confirm. Right-click in the segment number column of the last selected row and select Change Segment Status > Translated/Translation Approved/Signed Off from the shortcut menu. |
You can confirm translations that contain tracked changes in the source and/or target. You may want to do this if you are working in a regulated industry and are making changes to the target translation based on tracked changes in the source. This results in target tracked changes that directly map to source tracked changes that need to be included in the final document generated by Studio.
Depending on whether you have a document open for translation, review or sign-off, the following icons appear in the segment status column; this enables you to quickly see which segments have been translated/approved and which have not.

The translation is automatically added to the TM. If the segment contains tracked changes then they are treated as accepted when the TM is updated. If you prefer, you can change the default system settings so that TM updates are performed manually. Automatic translation memory updating is controlled from the Options dialog box.
Segment verification is performed. Segment verification errors are displayed in the Messages window.
The translation can be viewed in the Preview window.
Studio automatically places your cursor in the next unconfirmed segment, skipping all locked segments.

NOTE |
By default, when the system applies a 100% translation memory match to a segment, the segment is automatically confirmed. If you are updating a different TM to the one where the match was found, an update is made to that TM. These are optional settings which are controlled from the Options dialog box. |
