TTN TMS Terminology<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

TTN TMS has four Interfaces for four different user types:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Name<\/th>\nDescription<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Client<\/td>\nClients can order translations through an intuitive ordering interface that immediately calculates up to seven possible delivery deadlines based on text volume and real-time translator availability. Authorized users can access their private or company-wide archives, online termbases, translation memories, and full-text archives.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Translator<\/td>\nUnder “Translator,” we also include proofreaders. Translators and proofreaders receive translation or proofreading assignments and execute them within the TTN TMS environment. The translator interface allows users to download and upload translation jobs and provides access to translation resources such as translation memories (TMs), termbases, full-text archives, client forums, and user manuals.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Translation Manager<\/td>\nThe Translation Manager supervises the workflow and parameterizes the translation flow settings for the clients.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
System Operator<\/td>\nThe system operator has access to advanced system setup functions. They can test functionalities and have access to the operating systems. The system operations tools are intended for TTN-TMS staff and are not explained in this presentation.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
