Project management
The SDL Trados GroupShare interface enables you to manage both new and completed projects.
- Viewing projects
You can consult the list of available projects at any time. The project list provides information about the project: name, publication date, delivery date, client, status, language pairs and location within the Trados GroupShare organization hierarchy. - Creating projects
When you create projects from the SDL Trados GroupShare web interface, you create a storage for all the files that need to be translated. At this stage, you also decide which organization is in charge of your project. - Using MT providers to pre-translate project files
You can use machine translation (MT) providers to pre-translate projects files during project creation. For now, SDL Language Cloud Machine Translation or SDL ETS Translation can be used. - Restricting the download of project files
SDL Trados GroupShare can restrict the download of project files to some roles only. The Secure Project File Download permission is assigned to the following roles by default: Administrator, Power User and Project Manager. - Downloading project files in .sdlxliff format
You can download the project files in.sdlxliffformat to store or consult them irrespective of the project phase they are in, if you are not restricted in this regard by a user who has the Secure Project File Download permission. - Downloading translated project files
You can download the translated project files in their native format, during any project phase, if you are not restricted in this regard by a user who has the Secure Project File Download permission. - Finalizing project files
You can finalize project files from SDL Trados GroupShare. - Updating TMs after project file download
You can download the translated project files in their native format and update the TMs (translation memories), during any project phase, if you are not restricted in this regard by a user who has the Secure Project File Download permission. - Editing projects
You can change the planning details of your projects when no longer up-to-date. - Completing projects
When users complete all the assignments, you can mark the projects as Complete. At this stage, all the project files are usually in the Finalisation phase. - Restoring completed projects
You can restore projects from a Completed status to an In progress status if there is still some work left to do. - Deleting projects
You can delete your projects irrespective of their status, when no longer necessary. - Project settings
Project settings refer to the elements which control a project's behaviour. You can access and manage the project settings if you are assigned the Edit Project permission. - Project details progress bar
You can consult the progress bar on the Project Details pane of each project.
