It is sometimes beneficial to give external translators the ability to modify the linguistic resources such as enriching the glossary or saving a more accurate term or segment to the translation memory. This prevents excessive messages regarding an error in a resource and allows the translator to make the correction themselves.
Example 1
For example, let's say the external translator accesses the CAT editor for performing work and needs to see what resources were used for pre-translation. By enabling the appropriate access rights, etc. they will be able to modify segments in resources to ensure the most accurate translations are used for pre-translations on future projects.
Example 2
