Server Administrator - Audit log for TM

memoQ server can keep a log of actions that change translation memories. On the Audit log for TM pane, you can turn logging on and off, have the log e-mailed to you, and configure when this all happens. You can also export the current log manually.

Requires memoQ project manager: You need the project manager edition of memoQ to manage a memoQ server or a memoQ cloud.

You need to be an administrator: You may manage the server only if you are a member of the Administrators group on the memoQ server.

How to get here

    2. Type or choose the address of the memoQ TMS, and click the Select button.
