Availability calendar

The Availability calendar shows the availability of translators and reviewers. It works if your memoQ server is connected to Language Terminal.

To show up on the availability calendar, a translator or reviewer must be listed in your organization's Language Terminal profile as an internal vendor. To check the list of internal vendors, open the Logins and settings page from Language Terminal.

Requires memoQ project manager: You need the project manager edition of memoQ to see the availability of translators and reviewers.

You need to be a project manager or an administrator: You may manage users only if you are a member of the Project managers or Administrators group on the memoQ server.

Before you can view users from Language Terminal, you must prepare memoQ server: Use the Language Terminal pane of Server administrator to connect your memoQ server to Language Terminal. If you have no permission to do this, contact the administrator of the memoQ server. To learn more: See Help about the Language Terminal pane of Server Administrator.

Shows tasks from your organization only: The Availability calendar does not show the assignments that the users may receive from other organizations. However, users may indicate this in their own Language Terminal calendars by setting a lower capacity for certain days, or by indicating holidays.
