Issues Report

Using issues is key to getting your translations done quickly and accurately. The Issues Report is a database of all Issues on the Account. From here, you can view and manage issues, or download the data for offline assessment. The information displayed in the download report will provide you with full detail from the issues in the order they were entered. This data will help prevent similar roadblocks in the future.
