Make Field Templates exportable

When managing a large number of TMs, including file-based ones, we find that it is difficult to maintain the same field names and values across language pairs or across customer-specific TMs. In order to be consistent and to create templates "from scratch", it would help if there were a way to export (and subsequently re-import) field templates that can be used for all of our server TMs.

  • It would be nice to be able to export/import directly.

    Are you aware of following workaround?

    Workaround: Use TM Import/Export

    Export:

    1. Link the existing field template to a small translation memory

    2. Export the translation memory to TMX

    - If the TM is empty, run export via Trados. If the TM has at least one TU, this can be done via the GS web interface.

    Import:

    3. Create a translation memory on the GroupShare server. Do not link a field template.

    4. Import the TMX file from step 2 into this TM

    - Use the option Unknown Fields: Add to Translation Memory

    5. Export a field template from the TM

    - GroupShare 2017, on website: Select TM > Export > Fields
