Approve a translation and publish the text

After you get the final translation back from Supertext, you might have to review and approve it (depending on your settings).

Go to translation and then select “Job items”. This should open the view with all open jobs.
Here, select the job / order you just received from Supertext and click on Review.
Accept all items and click “Save as completed” below. Make sure the “Published” checkbox is checked. This should do the trick.
