Search for an object in the Translation cycle

The advanced search panel has two new additions. Use both when searching for objects in an alternate language.

About this task

Note: Content you localized using CCMS Desktop uses a different cycle: the Localization cycle. This content is view-only in CCMS Web, but is still available using the Advanced Search feature.

Searches in CCMS Web help you filter and add conditions. This is particularly useful for your translated, imported content. You can leverage the following additions to assist you:

  • In the Languages section, use the dropdown list to select from any of the languages for which you have translated content, such as fr-fr French or es-es Spanish.
  • In the Status section, use the Translation cycle and any related status type to find objects localized with CCMS Web or use the Localization cycle and any related status type to find objects localized with CCMS Desktop.

To search for an object in the Translation cycle:
