Edit template - People

In a project template, you can list users or groups of users, set a target language, and a role for each user.

When you create a project from this project template, memoQ automatically adds these users and groups to the project, with the roles and target languages you set up.

This is possible in local as well as online projects.

What can you do?

In an online project template, you can choose from users and groups that are already listed on the server. For example, you can decide if a user should have project manager or terminologist permissions and if they can get a license from the server.

Need roles and languages for automatic assignment: An online project sends work to users on a memoQ TMS. Make sure every translator and reviewer has their language pairs filled in. Otherwise, memoQ can't assign documents to them automatically.

In local projects, you don't have a list of users. You just add names to the project template, and set the language and the role. From a local project, you send handoff packages and receive delivery packages. Translators and reviewers don't work online.

Project manager edition only: You can't assign users and send handoff packages from the translator pro edition of memoQ. You need the project manager edition for that.
