With the Analyze feature, the system calculates which percent of a translation can be completed from translation memory on a per-document basis.

To analyze a document, follow these steps:

  1. Log in as a project manager.

  2. Click to open a project from the Projects menu.

  3. Check the box next to the document(s) requiring analysis.

  4. From the Documents bar, choose Actions; type and select Analyze.

  5. From the dialog,

    1. Name the Report and check to select Search TM Vaults. 

    2. Choose which TM vaults should be analyzed by dragging them to the right.  

    3. Penalize vaults that shouldn't be given equal weight as other TM vaults. Also, you may decide to penalize any unreviewed TM units. 

    4. For more help, see below.

  6. Click Analyze to run the report.
    The completed report will display in the Process Queue on the document’s TM Statistics tab.

Skip Segments with translations in the "x" phase

When a translation exists in the specified phase, it will be reported in the "Translated" row of the Analysis report. In other words, if certain segments already have translations in the selected phase, the analysis will skip over those segments. 

Search glossaries for exact matches

  • Selected glossaries will be analyzed for exact matches

  • To select a glossary, click and drag it to the right

  • Once glossaries are selected, drag them up or down to order them by precedence.
