  • Do not include wordcount from cancelled files in project wordcount

    • New
    • 1 Comment
    Currently, when a file is cancelled within a project, the dashboard and projects view displays the total wordcount for the project, including both cancelled and uncancelled files. This is misleading as it overstates the number of words that actually...
  • Option to have Default Resources (e.g. styleguides) as part of a Project Template

    • Under Community Review
    • 7 Comments
    Our company has style guides that apply to certain products or languages. Currently you have to add them manually to each project if you want the translators to see this. There should be some kind of way to make style guides accessible by default, automatically...

    Please add an option to display the wordcount of the target in either the Online Editor or the Details view of a task. Currently, the bar at the bottom of the Online Editor can display only the character in the target segment and the source wordcount...

    The Trados Enterprise release notes are very informative. Thank you! They highlight the most significant updates and provide very detailed information. Smaller updates are not always listed, though. Sometimes, these smaller changes can be very useful...
  • Add function to Trados Live Team: add another language to an existing project

    • Accepted, Not Yet Planned
    • 4 Comments
    Currently it is not possible to add another language to an existing project. The only - and quite time-consuming - ,,workaround" is to create a new project with the additional needed languages. It would be really helpful to integrate this function in...

    When you create a project with various files in Trados Team or Trados Enterprise, once you get to the Preparation/ Project Planning step, you can only assign all files of one target language to one user or user group. You cannot take 10 files and assign...
  • Make the status bar accurate for files in projects

    • In Progress
    • 6 Comments
    Currently the project status bar is inaccurate even after a project is complete. We have workflows where some human steps are only for certain languages or a human step is skipped (e.g. no QA issues to review) and this can cause a file to not show as...

    It would be great to have more filter options in the projects overview, such as: - project manager - overdue tasks - tasks/stages
  • Replace File without changing the file name of the older versions

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    When you replace a file in a task, e.g. DTP task, the file names of the older versions change as well in the list of target files. That doesn't make sense, because those older versions might have other file names. It would be better to just change the...

    It would be great if the assigned Reviewer could receive an email about when they can expect the translation to be ready, for example: "Hi Reviewer, you have been assigned to a Linguistic Review/Customer Review task for project X. The translation...
