What can you do?

Change plugin settings

Plugins for machine translation, translation memories and term bases require sending data to service providers through the internet.

To choose what plugins the project users will be able to use: Check or clear these check boxes: 

  • Machine translation plugins.
  • Allow users to change MT settings in checked-out projects
  • Terminology plugins
  • Translation memory plugins

Choose if QA errors should block document delivery

In the Quality Assurance section, check or clear the Users can deliver documents with QA errors check box.

Review workflow options

The Workflow options section shows how track changes and project packages work in the project. These settings are listed here: 

  • Track changes for Translators
  • Track changes for reviewer 1
  • Track changes for reviewer 2
  • Allow package creation
  • Use simultaneous translation and review

You cannot change these settings. Workflow options are set when the project is created (manually or using a template).

Review checkout-related resource settings

The Resources section shows what happens to the project’s resources at checkout.

You cannot change these settings. Resource options are set when the project is created (manually or using a template).

Different options can show up here, depending on the current project's package creation settings. 

Normally, if package creation is not allowed, only one setting is visible: Create offline copies of TMs and TBs at checkout.

If package creation is allowed, these resource settings are visible: 

  • Translation memories
  • Term bases
  • Qterm
  • LiveDocs corpora

The project package can include these resources filtered for the project, included entirely, or linked as an online resource.

Filtering a resource means that during package creation, memoQ removes irrelevant items from a resource. This way, the project package will be smaller. This helps translators who use mobile internet or have connection quality issues.

You cannot filter a LiveDocs corpus. You can either add it as an entire resource or link it as an online resource.

See how documents are handled in the project

The Document options section show if these settings are enabled or disabled for the project: 

  • Record document version history

  • Allow users to join and split segments

  • Allow users to export translated document

  • Use data needed for preview in a local copy

  • Allow bilingual export from a local copy

You cannot change these settings. Document options are set when the project is created (manually or using a template).

Turn off the autopilot

If the autopilot is on, you can see a notification banner at the top of the page. This means you cannot change the settings that come from the project template.

mqw-nxt-autopilot-on

When you create an online project from a template, it will normally run on autopilot. This means that memoQ TMS automatically assigns translation memories, LiveDocs corpora, and other resources, and automatically sends notifications when a document is assigned or delivered. In addition, memoQ TMS runs automated actions when the template requires them.

If you want to add or change a translation memory, or change the notification settings, you may turn off the autopilot.

To turn of this feature, click Turn off autopilot in the top right corner of the page. On the Turning off autopilot window, confirm your decision by clicking Turn off autopilot. This action cannot be undone.

When you finish

To save your changes: Click the Apply changes button at the bottom of the page.
