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.
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.

Launch or wrap up the project
When you launch an online project, you start its notification chain: memoQ TMS sends an initial e-mail to all participants. The e-mail contains details about accessing the online project. Later, when there is a change in the workflow status of a document, memoQ TMS sends further e-mails to the participants and the project manager.
To launch a project: In the top right corner, click the Launch button. The word Launched with a blue background will appear under the project's name. You cannot undo launching a project.
You wrap up a project if you do not expect any more work on it. If you use project templates, you can set up automatic actions that happen when you wrap up the project.
Set up templates in the memoQ desktop app. Then, you can create projects using those templates in memoQweb. To learn more, see the topic about editing project templates.
