    Hello Maik Mehlhose 

    When an user imports a file into the Wordbee CAT - Editor, the system analyses the submited file "line by line", so it is normal to have a message saying "6 segments processed" and "0 changed".

    If you want have more information on the updated and/or failed segments, you can download the "report" and all of the relevant information will be included in it.

    Each updated segment will also create a new entry in its revisions.

    Please let us know if we can be of further assistance. Have a nice day, 

    Mikael

    Dear Mikael,

    Thanks for your response.

    Your answer is correct but doesn't solve the problem described. Let's assume I receive a revision from my client who conducted changes offline. However he changed the name of the file (which happens quite often). By accident I reimport the changes to the wrong document in the editor.

    As I don't get an error message while importing the file there are two possible situations:

    1. The client didn't change anything so that's why there are no changes.

    2. I uploaded the wrong export to the wrong document.

    As I don't receive an error message I can't tell. The second case shouldn't be possible and stopped by an error message.

    Hello Maik, 

    I'm sorry but it's not really possible for the moment. Indeed, from the "Documents" job section you can export an excel or word file for many Jobs, and you can import this file in a specific Job (see the next screenshot in example)

    In a second step, you can import this updated file for each Job, and the updates will be imported only for the currently opened job. This is the expected behavior as of today.

    However, we understand your concerns about this and how it can be of some inconvenience to you, so we have appended your suggestions in our roadmap to improve the import report in the CAT-Editor :) 

    Have a nice day, 

    Mikael
