Introduction

You can use a TM penalty profile to select a particular translation memory (TM) from the XTM Cloud database, based on its tags and tag groups, and then penalize matches during analysis of the source file (see How to create tags and tag groups to find out how to create tags in XTM Cloud).

Applying a TM penalty profile provides project managers with the flexibility to control which TM is used for a project and the priority each match is given when presented to the translator.

Note

IMPORTANT!

You cannot apply TM penalty profiles to MT matches! MT matches perforce are not saved in the TM resources, so there is nothing to penalize.

Guidelines

  1. As a user with the Administrator role, go to Configuration Data Tags TM penalty profiles, and click the Add button.

...

If you want to favor translations that match the criteria specified in a penalty profile, you can lower the default priority of non-penalized matches, increase the priority of the penalty profile and choose not to do anything else as a penalty action.

Note

IMPORTANT!

It is not possible to combine multiple TM penalty profiles into one!
