Répondre à des collègues anglais

Submitted by Moa333
Source language: French

Je viens de lire tous vos mails et je vous en remercie.

Après vérification, je me rends compte que je rencontre toujours le même problème mais pas sur tous les comptes.

Vous trouverez un exemple de ce qui s'affiche lorsque je tente d'accéder à une vente antérieure.
Si je souhaite regarder la commande du 01/02/2012:

Voici le message d'erreur "l'enregistrement demandé est introuvable":

Ensuite il s'affiche à l'écran une commande du 25/11.

J'espère que cela pourra vous aider à comprendre.

Merci d'avance

Cordialement
Remarks about the translation
Ce sont des anglais de
"Accrington-Lancashire. (Donc, anglais britannique)

J'ai inséré des images à mon email que je n'ai donc pas mis dans ma traduction.

Merci d'avance pour votre aide.

I've just read all your emails, and I thank you for it.

After checking, I realised that I still encounter the same problem but not for all accounts.

Please find enclosed an example of what is displayed when I try to access an anterior sell.

If I want to check the order of 01/02/2012:

Here is the error message: "The requested record cannot be found".

Then an order of 25/11 displays on the screen.

I hope this will help you understand.

Thank you in advance,

Regards.
Remarks about the translation
I'm just not so sure about the date order. I america the month come first but I think in England it's the same than in France.

Je ne suis juste pas certain de l'ordre de la date. Au Etats-Unis le mois vient en premier, mais je crois qu'en Angletterre l'ordre est le même qu'en France (jour/mois/année).

Hey

--> Answering English co-workers
'Answering' sounds better than just 'answer'.
It seems 'colleagues' is used for people you work with and that are in the same field of work.
'Co-worker' is wider, and can be used for people who work in other domain as well as people who don't have the same rank.

--> I've just read all your emails, and I thank you for it.
I am not sure why, but I feel like adding this.

--> After checking, I realised that I still encounter the same problem but not on all accounts.
'To checkout' is to pay.
It is true that there is a 'vérification' meaning.
But I can't find this meaning in the Random House dictionary.
I'd say that 'on' is more appropriate.
Again, I am not sure why...

--> "The requested record cannot be found".
Changing the word order, don't know why... again

--> I hope this will help you understand.
More common and smooth.

About the date; since we do not know the order I would leave it as is.

Hope I am not wrong about all of that

Also, a simple 'checking' is better

Hello RedShadow.
1st line I'd say:'Answering English colleagues'.
To checkout signifies to pay but let's say someone has bet on some thing and the person won then there is a checkout before paying. A bit complicated..

Well, that is only my opinion.
I agree with you twice, dont know why, just feel it that way, .
Let's have Frank's opinion too.

Yes and also you can say 'to check something out', or 'check it out' which was my first choice

It is common but maybe it is more American English.
Anyway to avoid ambiguities, I changed and proposed a simple 'check'

Francky is already in the loop

Hi Red Shadow. 'checking - check-out aso' can as well be translated as 'verification' and I even think it might be the best word in this translation.
Personal opinion, my English isn't that good.
