Concordance in XTM UI
In order to make Concordance available for users with the linguist role from the XTM UI level (global settings), a user with the administrator role needs to activate the respective option in Configuration → Settings → Translation → Workflow and access → Linguist general options → Linguist access to TM metadata & Concordance.
2. Then, a user with the administrator / project manager role can determine the level of availability of Concordance for each and every user individually by going to Users → User list → (select a user) → Access rights → Concordance → Access to TM metadata & Concordance.
3. The Concordance section will be displayed for a user in the main XTM UI ribbon on the top of the page.
Concordance in Workbench
Open up Workbench for a given file (please, click here for more information).
Select a word in the source text. Right-click it to open the context menu, select Concordance, and choose either of the options presented to look for that specific phrase in the source/target language of the translation memory.
Note that in the Concordance panel the selected word was found in the source text. That is because the word was searched for by utilizing Concordance search in source language in this case.
Analogically, if we use Concordance search in target language, the selected word will be looked for in the target text.
3. Instead of selecting a given phrase directly in the editor, you can also type it in the Concordance search field:
4. Dedicated shortcuts can also be set up for Workbench Concordance in Settings → Shortcuts → General section.
You also have the option to detach the whole Concordance module in Workbench and display it as a separate tab in the browser:
