With the imminent end of life of (TMS/MultiTrans/GS Cloud), we are no longer accepting Ideas within this forum. Existing ideas will be reviewed and added to the Trados family of products where applicable.

This place is where you can suggest, discuss, and vote on ideas. If you want to create an idea for an other related product choose the appropriate group on this page.

When you select to create a new idea, there are a few things you can do to ensure RWS Development and other community participants understand the idea. See here for Idea best practices.

  • Revised accurate Translation Summary by Language Report

    • Under Review
    • 0 Comments
    I believe the current default Translation Summary by Language Report available under Management Reports in SDL TMS is ineffective. From experience, when trying to use this to collate data for customer KPIs and business reviews, it seems that this report...
  • Allow users to Modify Stage to a System stage

    • Under Review
    • 0 Comments
    While this can be dangerous, Modify Stage can be dangerous even for Human stages when used inappropriately. Currently, it is only possible to modify the stage to a system stage for a file in Recovery, which can be very useful for corrupted bilingual files...
  • Passolo support in TMS

    • Idea Delivered
    • 0 Comments
    Every release of a new Passolo version, TMS will not accept bundles for a few months. I would be very valuable to allow immediate support of new Passolo bundles versions in TMS in a joint manner. Because of this restriction, we cannot deploy Passolo...
  • TMS submission and delivery folder structure preservation improvement request

    • Under Review
    • 1 Comment
    Complex deliveries in TMS can require the use of an AddZip workflow, where, possible, the actual translation tasks get moved to Complete and only the zip file is moved to the final TCR/delivery stages. This is likely due to the folder structure required...
  • TMS Notifications - Do Not Reply Blurb

    • Not Considering
    • 0 Comments
    TMS Notifications should contain a line of boilerplate text advising users not to reply to the email. Since SDLTMSSupport@SDL.COM is an unmonitored email, any responses to this are not recieved. Users in large organisations dont necessarily know...
  • Give explicit error messages to say why a file upload has failed

    • Under Review
    • 0 Comments
    We have seen an increase in the number of file upload fails in TMS recently. There is no error message to say why the file has not been uploaded properly or how this can be fixed. Instead, when looking at the task, we just see the red upwards arrow with...
  • Allow files to be chained in the TMS editor so they don't have to be opened individually

    • Under Review
    • 0 Comments
    TMS autopopulates blank target segments with the source text. This makes working with mismatched segments difficult and it's not always possible to spread the target text over all source segments. We currently have a workaround to enter a space in the...
  • Add Language Folder when Downloading Translations into One Language in ManTra

    • Under Review
    • 0 Comments
    Hi, Current behaviour: when requesting multiple languages, the requestor in ManTra downloads a zip file with all translations, and these are sorted into different language sub-folders when the client downloads the package from ManTra. When you request...
  • Add a comment box for rejected tasks

    • Under Review
    • 0 Comments
    We have situations where a task is rejected and needs to be assigned to someone else. It would be great to have a comment box, similar to what we have when completing a task, where a comment could be added and passed along to the PM.
  • SDL TMS - Support Idea - Replace live Content Types in Configurations

    • Not Considering
    • 0 Comments
    Dear Team, We often are having issues where for example Word 2007-2013 is causing issues. Simply we replace content type, but for most of cases its difficult to do it when its in use in live jobs. As a workaround we change extensions to add Word 2007...
