We have just released the latest update to Trados Enterprise translation management capabilities, and we would like to share the new functionality that has been delivered.
New features and updates are automatically added to your account so just login to Trados Enterprise and they will be available immediately.
Trados rebranding
As part of our strategic direction, we have further streamlined the branding of the products in our portfolio. The logo now only shows Trados for all offerings. You can find your product offering by clicking on your Avatar in the top right and selecting Manage account.
Project Management UX improvements
We have introduced several User Experience improvements:
We have introduced a new List view on Project Details -> Stages that can be selected. This makes it easier to work with projects that have many tasks.
Phases from the existing Stages view are represented as colored tags in the List, consistent with the color of the phase used in the Stages view.
When switching to the new List view:
- All bulk actions that are available from the Stages view still apply
- Filtering works in the same way across both the List and Stages views
- From the List view, it is also possible to filter by a single phase
Trados Enterprise will preserve the layout preference for individual users working in Projects > Stages, and automatically adopt the same layout next time the user logs in.
In addition, the Project Details -> Stages view now has the option for live updates, so you can track processing or project changes more easily without the need to manually refresh.
If you are in the process of performing action(s) for a project, you will receive notification of pending updates so that you are not disrupted in your work.
In support of this feature, we have introduced a setting that allows users to toggle the auto-refresh functionality on or off, depending on their preference. For the initial release of this feature, the setting remains off by default, but this is something we will review in the future based on customer feedback.
For customers with many project templates, we have now added additional filtering options during project creation to make finding the right template easier.
Task comments
Closing comments are now visible to Project Managers in multiple views:
- Task History
- File Versions
- Audit Trail
- Task Inbox
- E-Mail notification
Custom Fields on Customers
Custom Fields have been extended and can now be applied to Customers, in addition to Projects and TMs which were previously available. The Customers list view has also been updated to allow filtering on Custom Fields.
We have also added the option for Custom Fields to be copied, making it easier to create new Custom Fields.
Batch download Analysis Reports across languages
Analysis reports can now be downloaded in XML format for multiple languages in a project in the same request.
In-Product Antivirus scanning
All files uploaded to Trados Enterprise are now automatically scanned by antivirus software. To protect users of the product, any files that are flagged as having malicious content are blocked for download and quarantined automatically.
Users have the option to replace quarantined files with non-infected versions.
Apply Filter while exporting Terminology
You can now apply the currently active, or previously saved filter, during the export process for Terminology.
API enhancements
The following API enhancements are now available as part of this release:
- You can now upload a .zip archive and then poll for the extracted files. After extraction, you can upload multiple source files to a project using a single call. The maximum size for an imported .zip file is 10 MB.
- The Java SDK client is now available in public beta.
- Published API rate limits.
- Updated the Custom fields documentation with useful gifs.
- The .NET and Java client versions are updated with each API release.
- Various bug fixes.
More details are available here.
Additional changes
- You can now upload multiple packages at the same time from the Inbox
- When a term is found in the Online Editor, you can now jump to the term entry from the sidebar by clicking on the eye icon
- It is now possible to accept tasks directly in the Online Editor view to mitigate cases where a user forgot, or wasn’t aware, they have to take ownership of a file before being able to work on it. Where a user is assigned, but has not yet accepted the task, we now display a button in the Online Editor directly allowing the user to accept the task without having to go back to their inbox
- Quotes can now be downloaded from Completed Customer/Vendor quote review tasks from the Inbox
- Mid-Project updates now also calculate cross-file repetitions
- XML/XHTML v1 File filters have been deprecated: https://community.rws.com/product-groups/trados-portfolio/trados-live/b/blog/posts/trados-enterprise---xml-xhtml-v1-file-filter-deprecation
- Various bug fixes and UX enhancements.
We hope this post was informative and we look forward to continuing to provide you with updates to the product.
