QA Settings

In the Editor, you can click the button to check spelling, case, punctuation, terminology, format, and inconsistencies and other errors in your translation. QA Settings and Run QA are available in the Editor.


QA Settings

  • After selecting QA Settings, you can enable or cancel certain verification criteria in the QA Settings pop-up window.
  • The QA settings in the Editor are in sync with the QA settings in the project, on which you can add other error categories and define their severity levels.

Note: Only QA rules that are not enabled in the project settings can be enabled or canceled in the Editor while rules that are enabled in the project cannot be canceled in the Editor interface.

  • When QA rules are enabled, three types of icons, namely Note, Warning and Error will be displayed on the right side of the confirmed target segments in which violations of certain rules are identified by YiCAT.


Run QA

In the Editor interface, the system will automatically check for any violations of QA rules in the confirmed target segments. To conduct QA inspection on the re-edited target segments, select Run QA, and YiCAT will automatically check the edited part of the full text, and prompt QA error (s) on the right side of the segments in which violations of QA rules have been identified.
