Translation Feed File: Exporting Verbatims for Translation

Introduction
Although Codeit provides support for auto-translation of verbatims, there are times when you verbatims need to be manually translated by a linguist.
Translations can be added or edited within the coding screens, which may be suitable for small numbers of ad-hoc translations.
However, if you need to translate a large batch of verbatims, then it is sometimes useful to export the whole batch for translation in an external process.
This is particularly true if you want to import verbatims into third party translation software.

Translation Feed File
The Export wizard offers an option that allows you to export a feed file for translation purposes.
The layout consists of the following 4 fields:

Field	Description
ID	The internal Codeit Id value for the verbatim. Including this column makes it easy to feed translations back into the system using the Import File tool once translations are complete.
VariableName	For context, the name of the variable that the verbatim is attached to.
VariableValue	The native language verbatim text
TranslatedValue	The translated equivalent for the verbatim text. This will be blank if no translation already exists. This field can be completed by the linguist and imported into Codeit using the Import File tool.

The translation feed file is downloaded as a zip file, within which there is a separate Excel file for each source-target language pairing.
For example, "es-en" (Spanish to English), "fr-en" (French to English) and so on...

Export Wizard
To produce a Translation Feed File, select the "Translations" export option from the Codeit Export Wizard

Selections
Within the Export Wizard, you can control which source variables you'd like to include in the export, subject to the following restrictions:

Only variables added as a source variable within a task can be exported
Any records in a language that matches the project base language will not be exported (because they don't need to be translated).
