To create a project, select New in the Project list and start filling data:

Main data tab

The form contains a number of tabs. First one, Main data, allows to enter basic information about a project: status, date and deadline, client, default fuzzy scheme for project jobs, specialization, PO number, etc. Responsible person field is intended only for teams and allows to select staff member responsible for this project. Later you will be able to generate reports showing performance of each staff member.

Status of a project may change automatically depending on a status of project's jobs. When all jobs of a project are in the processing state, finished, delivered or paid, respectively, then project status could change to In work, Finished, Delivered or Closed.

Price-list field allows to explicitly specify price-list for a project and underlying translation jobs, if you wish to use non-default price-list for a selected customer.

Base quote field allows to select a quote which was used as a base to create this project. When quote is accepted and project is created over it, this field is filled automatically.

In the middle of the form you can select Source language and Target languages. Target languages are selected in a form of tags:

Target languages don't limit language pairs used in translation jobs inside a project, but allow to quickly create new jobs.

Work time section allows to view summary of time tracking data from all jobs belonging to a project. Data displayed in this group will be correct only if you correctly fill corresponding fields in jobs. Here you can get some statistical information, like total work time in minutes, processed volume per hour and income per hour.

Totals group displays project totals (amount, assigned amount, margins, etc.). This group is visible no matter which tab is currently selected, and values here are updated each time you make any changes in a project (for example, edit job task or create a new assignment).
