    When a translator realizes in the translation phase that he needs to access an additional TM to the ones that have been preconfigured in the assigned translation engine, he cannot do this. The only way to add another TM is that the PM modifies the configuration...

    Currently the assigned languages for service types are only visible if you edit the user account - this is a problem: Due to SSO integration, all our users are created at ROOT level and then added to different groups, after they have been given respective...

    Currently, the schedule templates are not smart enough to be usable so we are not using schedule templates. We'd like to turn the automatic task due dates that TE assigns to projects where individual due dates are not manually assigned. These automatic...
