Create projects without files in Trados Customer Portal

You can create a project without that project initially being started if it does not have at least one Translatable file attached.

A user can now create a project without initially uploading any files for translation. Upon creation, the project will appear with the status "New" in Trados Customer Portal, and a user is able to add files to the project from the Project Details page. The project can only be started when it contains at least one source file for translation. This can be initiated from either the Project Details or All Projects pages. Once started, the project will follow the standard workflow defined for that project template, file format and language pair.

In order to create and start a project, the project must contain at least one source file for translation.

Projects that are created but not started via Trados Customer Portal will be visible to users from the Projects view in Trados Enterprise with the "New" status.
