Text and translation

Only after we observed the process in practice did we understand why users were struggling. The written instructions had appeared clear when reviewed in isolation. Not until a new colleague attempted the task did the missing step become obvious. We had assumed that the required folder would already be open. Once that assumption was removed, the explanation became much easier to follow. The revised guide now includes the starting point as well as the final action.

لم نفهم سبب صعوبة الأمر على المستخدمين إلا بعد أن راقبنا الإجراء عمليًا. بدت التعليمات المكتوبة واضحة عندما روجعت بمعزل عن التطبيق. لم تتضح الخطوة الناقصة إلا عندما حاول زميل جديد تنفيذ المهمة. كنا قد افترضنا أن المجلد المطلوب سيكون مفتوحًا بالفعل. بعد التخلي عن هذا الافتراض، أصبح الشرح أسهل متابعة بكثير. يشمل الدليل المعدل الآن نقطة البداية إلى جانب الإجراء النهائي.
