Cannot edit the TM's content here: You need memoQ to do that.

How to get here

Sign in to memoQweb as an administrator or a project manager.
On the left sidebar, click the Resources icon.
On the Resources page, click the Translation memories icon.
In the list, click a TM's name. The Resources > Translation memories > (TM) page opens.

What can you do?

Change the TM's name, and how it tracks segment origin

Do this in the Properties section.

Change the Name field as needed. The resource's name must be unique in the memoQ TMS.

When you confirm a segment in the translation editor, memoQ will save the name of the document together with the segment and its translation. This may be interesting when you are reviewing translations - or you need to decide how much to trust the translation.

If you do not want the document names in the translation memory: Clear the Store document name check box.

If there are at least two different documents that have the same name: This is possible if you work on documents imported from various folders. To make sure that the stored names are different, check the Store full path check box.

To save your changes to this section: Click the Save button at the bottom of the section.

Do this in the Settings section.

To disable writing into the TM: Under Protection, check the Read-only check box.

To save your changes to this section: Click the Save button at the bottom of the section.

Change metadata for the TM

Change the Project, Client, Domain, Subject, and Description fields as needed.
