A job represents a file for translation into a specified target language(s).
If a single file is to be translated from a source into two target languages, it is represented by two jobs:
In Strings, multiple languages may be contained with one job.
Jobs can be viewed under the tab on a project page. Clicking on a specific job presents the status of the jobs with options for editing, duplicating, commenting on or deleting the job.
Use the options at the top of the list to search for a job by name, to filter jobs by involved users and status or to change sorting order.
Translation status is also presented under the tab and if complete, an .XLIFF or custom file format of the job can be downloaded.
