Run QA

Click the Check documents radio button.

Choose the documents or segments that memoQ must check: Choose a scope.

A scope tells memoQ which documents to look at. You have the following options - choose one radio button:

• Project: memoQ checks all segments in all documents of the current project. If the project has two or more target languages, memoQ will check segments in every target language.
• Active document: memoQ checks all segments in the active document. The active document is the one you are looking at in the translation editor. You can choose this only if you are working on a document in the translation editor.
• Selected documents: memoQ checks all segments in the selected documents. You can choose this only if you select several documents in Translations under Project home. It doesn't work when the translation editor is in the front.
• From cursor: memoQ checks segments below the current position in the active document. The active document is the one you are looking at in the translation editor. You can choose this only if you are working on a document in the translation editor.
• Open documents: memoQ checks all segments in every document that is open in a translation editor tab.
• Selection: memoQ checks the selected segments in the active document. The active document is the one you are looking at in the translation editor. You can choose this only if you are working on a document in the translation editor.
• Work on views check box: Check this to make memoQ go through segments in the views in the current project. You can choose this only if there is at least one view in the project.

  To check segments in just one target language: Before opening the Run QA window, choose a language on the Translations pane of Project home. Select all documents, then open Run QA, and choose Selected documents.

Click the Check translation memory radio button.

You can check one of the translation memories in the project. Select the translation memory in the list.

To check a translation memory: You need to open a project that uses it.

1. Check the Export QA report to this location check box. Find a folder and a name for the report in the box below the check box.
2. Normally, memoQ will save the report in your Documents folder. The file will have the name of the project and the date of the QA check. To change this, click Browse. Choose another folder and another name for the file.

Project managers can get a separate report for each translator: You will probably run QA on the work of several translators at once. memoQ can save a separate report for each translator: You can send these reports directly to the translators. They will not see each other's QA reports. To do this, check the Separate reports per translator check box. memoQ will create several files.

Use a web browser to view the report. memoQ saves a HTML file. The file will be large because it is intelligent:

• The Project details section shows information about the project, the checked documents, and the term bases and QA settings used when creating the report:
  
• The Number of errors and warnings found by type section shows issues grouped by category:

  
  Click the + or - sign to open or close a category. Click an issue type to jump to that category in the List of errors and warnings section.
