Simplify the management of "multiple translations" in TM

For various reasons, it's possible that your TM start having a lot of unwanted "multiple translations", which is what we call TUs with the same source but different targets.  Those will really slow down translation and/or increase costs.  Whether the TM is local or in GroupShare, there should be an easy way to detect those and propose a simple UI to help a power user or an Adminitrator to go through and decide which ones to keep and which ones to remove.

  • Good suggestion that I wasn't aware of.  Unfortunately, it also reports units where the source only differs with tags and that to me is not strictly a multiple translation and we wouldn't want to delete those.  Also, it's one page per potential duplicate, with no option to export.

    So what I'm asking is for a similar feature, but strictly for exact "multiples: where the source text is exactly the same, but the target is not.  Those are the ones I would like to have a tool to manage, and having the option to export externally (maybe in 2 column word document ) would be nice.  Having a count would be good too.
