TMs and TDs

For both translation memories and terminology databases, you have a choice of:
  • Letting the Project Type control which TM (or TD) is used (No client-specific TM/TD).
  • Having WorldServer create an empty TM (or TD) and use it for all locales. With this selected, WorldServer automatically creates a new TM or TD with a unique name (<Client Name>_Default_TM<Counter>) and Description (Default Translation Memory for <Client Name>). This TM (or TD) will be used only for project types that refer to this Client setting—that is, project types that have Use client-specific TM/TD. The TM is created when the Client is saved. The next time a user chooses to edit (or view) this screen, the radio button labeled Choose default TM for all locales is selected and TM name is displayed in the drop-down list.
  • Choosing a default TM (or TD) for all locales. This option enables the drop-down list with all existing TMs (or TDs) and allows the administrator to pick one.
For the second and third choices, you may choose to override the TM (or TD) selection for some source-target locale pairs. When you select the Advanced options check box, this option displays the table which allows you, if you have permission, to pick a source and target locale and then choose a TM (or TD) for it.
