  • The TM matches from the old project are set as not approved and you do not allow using not approved translation memory in your current project.

  • The new project was created before the TM entries were created, and you did not open XTM Workbench in the Edit Mode yet, so a match update was not triggered.

  • You are using a TM penalty profile that penalizes matches from the old project.

  • The old project was created under a different customer that the new project does not have access to.

The TM tab gets stuck upon selecting a customer

Sometimes, you might encounter an issue that after selecting a specific customer in the TM tab (TM → Manage), the entire tab gets stuck and the source and target language cannot be chosen (they are greyed, which renders the TM module not operable at all at the moment.

Info

A good practice in this case would be to contact other team members and confirm if they are also experiencing the same issue. Usually, this problem is global.

Solution: This problem might stem from a couple of potential reasons. The two most prominent ones are as follows:

  • extensive TM base → It may occur that the translation memory for a particular XTM customer is quite vast. In most such cases, you should just wait a little bit longer for the system to finish loading up all of requested TM. After a while, the dropdowns for selecting a language combination as well as specific projects should be available. If, however, the problem persists, do not hesitate to contact the XTM International Support team and provide details.

  • Issues with spelling dictionaries on the back-end side → This might be another cause standing behind the issue with the TM tab getting frozen. If the tab will not be available a couple of seconds after selecting a customer, do not hesitate to contact the XTM International Support team and provide details.
