This is the guide about Project tasks in SDL Studio Trados 2019, that help you to use SDL Studio Trados 2019 easier.

A task is a process that is performed on an individual file or on a group of files (for example, an entire project), with the purpose of preparing the project, pre-translating the project, generating reports, and so on.

There are two types of tasks in SDL Trados Studio:

• Batch tasks – Batch tasks are performed by the system. For example, the Word Count task performs a word count for selected files and the word count results can be seen in the SDL Trados Studio views and reports. Batch tasks can be put into a task sequence. All tasks in the sequence are performed (in the order in which they appear in the sequence) on all selected files.
• Manual tasks – Manual tasks are performed by people. For example, translation is a manual task. Manual tasks are assigned to users when they are sent a project package. The task tells the user what they are expected to do with the files in the package.
