Automated analysis report settings

When there's a change in a project, memoQ can automatically calculate a new analysis report. This works in projects that you create from project templates.

For example, you can set up a project template to run the analysis automatically after a new document is imported into the project. Then memoQ will do this in all projects that you create from that project template.

    To set up a template for online projects or resources: Choose your memoQ TMS at the top of Resource console, then click Select Select icon..

What can you do?

Don't use Trados 2007-like word counts: Normally, memoQ counts words like Microsoft Word does. Use the Trados 2007-like word counts only if your client still works with an early Trados version.

When you finish

To add the action to the project template: Click OK.

The report won't run when you click OK: To get the analysis report automatically in an ongoing project: Create a project from this project template, and start working on it. Check the Reports or the Overview / Reports section for the new reports.

To return to the Edit project template window, and not add an action to the project template: Click Cancel.
