Overview
There are three objectives of using tracking document.
- First, it is to have a list of reviewed translation items with reviewers so that when a translator want to update an item, he or she can that the item is reviewed or not. This is to avoid duplicate works when multiple translators change the same item without prior agreement on the correct term and/or translated phrase. This is also help in case Google Translation is used to translate all items then translators review them to make sure all translations are good.
- Second, it is to have a glossary for common words so that all translations are consistent. Translator should consult the glossary first before changing a common word translation.
- Third, it is to know who is working on what. Translators can register where he or she is working so that others can select different part.
How to start translating
You should review Glossary sheet in tracking document to understand about common words. Then you go to Overview sheet to know what others are doing. You can open User Guide and/or login to OpenEMR to select screen that is not yet done, log it to Overview sheet, and start translating in openemr_language_table document.
You can feel free to add new words to Glossary but to change existing one, you should follow steps in #How to update Glossary section.
You can translate untranslated items, go to Reviewed sheet, look for id of those items, and update your id in your language column. This will help other translators to know those items are reviewed. If an item is translated, please refer to #How to change a reviewed item section for proper collaboration.
Log your work
To avoid scrolling down and up, new entry in Overview sheet should be insert at top, right below heading row. Mandatory fields are Date, Translator, Working on / Stopped at, and Done Screen. You can enter data to other fields only if you want.
How to collaborate
How to change a reviewed item

How to update Glossary
If you feel an entry in Glossary should be changed, please perform the same consultation steps in #How to change a reviewed item section before updating Glossary sheet. Be ware that all items in openemr_language_table those contain the term should be updated also to reflect new definition.
