Opening Trados GroupShare projects

To work with an Trados GroupShare server-based project, you need to open it in Trados Studio. You must have permissions to be able to view the progress of the project, translate and review the project files, perform any batch tasks and create project packages.

About this task

The files associated to the task you are performing have to be checked out from the Trados GroupShare server. Once you have completed the task, the files must be checked back into the server.

Procedure

  1. In the Projects view, go to the Home tab and in the Trados GroupShare group, select Open Project.
  2. On the Trados GroupShare Project Selection page, select the project of interest and select Next.
  3. On the Project Location page, browse for a location for your project and select Finish.
  4. Perform a task:
    • If you open a file for translation, review or sign-off, you are prompted to check out the file from the server.
    • If you run a batch task or create a package, the files are automatically checked out from the server.
  5. When you have completed the task, switch to the Files view and right-click the file that you have just edited and then select Check In, from the context menu.
