Merging of the server based TMs.

I ask you fellow Groupshare users to help me with the merging of the server based TMs.

There is a function in Studio 2015 called "Upgrade translation memories", which allows users to merge several local TMs and then publish them on the GS (Groupshare server), however if the user wants to merge TMs that are already on the sever it only gives you the option to add sever based TMs from studio 2009.

The question is - how do you merge TMs that were created in Studio 2015 and sit on the GS server. Can you do it through the GS server interface?

    To my knowledge, there is no function to merge server-based TMs directly on the server.

    i understand your concern about the workload on the client, on the other hand please also keep in mind that merging these "thousands" of TMs is more or less a "one-time project". Once you have your multilingual TMs on the server (and I guess there will not be thousands of them anymore) you won't have this problem anymore. Also consider that in order to move you currently local TMs to the server, you need to import them anyway, which means that with a good planning about which local TMs you are going to import into which consolidated server-based TM, the added effort due to merging will not be substantial anymore. You need to import all your thousands of local TMs anyway! The import itself however can be done directly on the server (as opposed to importing from within Studio).
