New Features

• Project Status Report
  • Managing translation projects just got easier with the new Project Status report
  • Project managers can now track the progress of every task, of every document, of every project all on a single page
  • Quickly view which tasks are: already completed (and when), waiting on another task to complete, ready to be worked on (but not yet started), in progress (and how far along), or paused
  • A variety a filter and sorting options allow project managers to drill down on the information that is most important and quickly identify bottlenecks in a project's progress
  • The report results provide direct links to the projects and documents in question, for taking quick action when needed
  • Results can be exported for the current page or for all pages
• Workflow Improvements
  • Workflow phases can now be pre-assigned to one or more community members or teams, making project creation and setup faster than ever by completely automating task assignments
  • Added a phase rule condition for when a machine translation process completes
  • Added a phase rule condition for when a pre-fill translation memories process completes
  • Option to ignore untranslated segments within the translation phase
• Dashboard Improvements
  • When running a TM analysis, project managers can now opt to group the results by assignee, making it completely effortless to determine the total project word counts for each assigned translator and reviewer
  • Adding new documents and/or targets to a project with a workflow that starts with a Machine Translate or Pre-fill TM phase now immediately starts the workflow for the added document / targets
  • Results from Machine Translate and Pre-fill TM phases now display immediately upon completion
  • Pre-fill TM phases now display the percentage of words pre-filled, with a link to the Pre-fill Results report
  • The "select all" checkbox on the Project Details page now provides the option of selecting all documents across all pages
  • TM vaults can now be downloaded for all target languages at once
  • URLs entered into document notes now display as active links on the document's Settings tab
  • A new Clients page has been added for managing and sharing client records among project managers

  • Notes can now be added to a project
  • Analyze reports under the TM Statistics tab can now be renamed and deleted at the project level

• Workbench Improvements
  • The workbenches now indicate to translators and reviewers segments which were pre-filled with machine translation that has not yet been post-edited
  • URLs entered into document notes now display as active links in the workbenches, allowing translators and reviewers quick access to external resources and reference materials that can provide assistance during translation and in-context reviews
  • If enabled in workflow, untranslated segments can be ignored via the "Ignore Untranslated Segments" button, causing the Translate phase to reach 100%, and removing those segments from subsequent phases
  • A "Last Saved" timestamp now appears on both workbenches any time that work is saved; the timestamp periodically updates to inform users have how much time has elapsed since work was last saved
  • New icons added to differentiate between TM hits from public vaults vs. TM hits from private vaults
• Community Administration Improvements
  • The new Current Sessions report enables community admins to view and manage users that are logged into the community; and to see how long they've been logged in and what they're working on
  • Current Sessions report also allows the community admin to force-log-off a user
  • Reduced session timeouts to two hours
  • New community setting allows for optionally hiding the Leaderboard and user statistics on the home page
