Launch or wrap up the project
When you launch an online project, you start its notification chain: memoQ server sends an initial e-mail to all participants. The e-mail contains details about accessing the online project. Later, when there is a change in the workflow status of a document, memoQ server sends further e-mails to the participants and the project manager.
