Force translate

Force translate can be used for example when document 1 has been sent for translation and it shares content with document 2, which being sent to translation to the same language. Usually, the shared content will get translation=no in the second simultaneous translation as it is already sent to translation.

Document 2 needs to be prioritized in translation this time, so the user selects the option Force translate. The shared content will get translation=yes, and will therefore be delivered with both translations.

note

When the second translation is delivered into Kentucky, it will overwrite the first translation. This is no problem when using the same translation memories and if the first translation is not edited in Kentucky.
