General overview
OOONA Manager is a web-based management tool for subtitling and localization companies.
Through this platform, users see all the tasks they are assigned to and receive all necessary information about these tasks: delivery dates, access to required assets, access to tools, instructions, and any other relevant info for the task.
Password creation and initial login
You will receive a mail with your username (fig 1) and a password creation link (fig 2).
Click on the “Change my password” link in the email you received.
The following screen will appearType your password and re-type it to confirm (fig 1).
Click “Change” to save the new password (fig 4).
Once the password is created, the user will be forwarded to the login page.

If the link has expired, click on your system’s name (fig 3) in the email and then click “Forgot password” to receive a new password recovery link.
Ready tasks vs. Not ready tasks
The system differentiates between two types of tasks: Ready task and Not ready task
Ready task (Previous task/s completed)
A “Ready task” is a task that the assigned resource can start working on.
A task is considered ready when the previous task in the order’s workflow is completed.
Meaning that all required assets to complete the task are available in the order.
*In integrated systems, the relevant OOONA tool will be available & active for the resource
Not ready task (Previous task/s not completed)
A “Not ready task” is a task that the assigned resource cannot start working on.
A task is considered as not ready when the previous task/s in the order’s workflow have not been completed yet.
When a task is indicated as not ready, it means that not all required assets are available in the order yet. The task will be displayed in the task list, including all information and available assets, but it means that a required asset is still missing.
*In integrated systems, the relevant OOONA tool will be inactive for the resource until the task is ready.

On “My tasks” page you’ll see all the tasks that you are assigned to, Ready and Not ready, and receive all necessary information about your tasks including access to the assets and tools. Each line is one task you are assigned to.
When finished working on your task, you must mark it as complete.
Previous task column
Green - you can start working on your task. Previous task in the order’s workflow is completed so all necessary assets should be available (fig 3).
Orange - you can't start working on your task. Not all necessary assets are available (fig 4).
Messages
Messages are must-read instructions/information related to the task. You cannot download the assets, or open them in any OOONA tool (in integrated systems) until all messages are marked as read by you.
Click the “Messages” button of your task (fig 1) to display all messages.
Click “Read” (fig 2) for each message to mark it as read. Once clicked, the button will turn green (fig 3).
In long messages, make sure to scroll all the way down to disclose all the information (fig 4).
If you try to download any of the order’s files from the “Order files” page of your task (fig 1) or try to stream it to an OOONA tool by clicking “Open toolkit” (fig 2) - the following alert will prompt (fig 3). Once you click “Close” (fig 4), you will be navigated to the “Messages” page to mark your messages as read:
Order files/assets
Click the Order files button (fig 1) to see the files that have been made available in this order. Each line is one file (fig 2).
Normally, all required files will be streamed to OOONA’s tool once clicking to open the tool in “My tasks” page (in integrated systems).
If your organization permits it, the files can be downloaded by clicking the arrow icon (fig 3). If there are messages for this order that you haven’t read yet you’ll be forwarded to the Messages page to mark the messages as read.
Working with OOONA tools
When the task is ready (previous task in the order workflow is completed so all asses are available), the required OOONA tool will be available. Click on the toolkit icon iמ the “Open toolkit” column to access the tool.
When clicking the “Finish Project” button in the OOONA tool, an alert will prompt asking if the task should be marked as completed in the Manager. Click “Yes” to complete the task and mark it as completed.
If the alert to complete the tasks wasn’t prompted, you must navigate back to “My tasks” page (in Manager) and click “Mark as complete”. Without clicking it the task will not be considered as completed.
Once the task is completed it will no longer be displayed in “My tasks” page. If you still see your task - it was not completed.
A task can only be completed when the “Mark as complete” button is blue. The button will only turn blue after finishing a project in Toolkit.
