When a project manager works on a project sent in by a customer, they must be able to identify the customer. If there is a new contact person for a customer, the project manager must see which company or department they belong to.
In addition, you had better avoid rogue registrations of contact people: You can set up approval for new contacts.
It all happens in memoQweb: You see the customer's projects and the administrator approves the new contacts in memoQweb.
To set up identification and approval, click the Signup tab.
- See where a contact person comes from:
- If your organization is a translation company, your customers will be other companies. In this case, your team will set up contacts for your customers. Click the New contacts cannot sign up themselves (they need to be added in memoQweb radio button.
- If your organization is an "enterprise" (not a translation company), your customers will be the departments of the same company. In this case, colleagues can create their own users. Click New contacts can sign up themselves radio button.
