All translation tasks may be performed in the Translation Editor as well as in the Inbox. Usually, translations of worklists assigned to a single author are performed from the Inbox following the translation workflow, while the Translation Editor is used to translate individual concepts. The Translation editor opens the translation panel directly. The following image shows the Translation panel accessed through the Inbox.
The Translation info panel on the left shows all the descriptions edited in the source language. By default, active and inactive descriptions are shown. If required, only active ones may be displayed by selecting this option in the preferences icon (

The +syn button will open an edition field where the new description shall be entered. Description type appears as Synonym by default, with Acceptability = Preferred.
