Create Resource Groups
Once at least one Translation Memory and Terminology Database exist within the system, you can then create a resource group for these items. This is much easier than manually selecting each linguistic resource to be used for a client or project in the system. Resource groups may be created per translation domain, per client, or per product, for instance.The idea is that whenever you create a translation project for a specific domain/client/product you simply have to select the related resource group and the document(s) to translate will be automatically pre-translated from the right resources.
The following sections have been provided to show you how resource groups are created in the system:

...
Click on Add New in the upper right corner to begin creating a resource group.
Step 1: Enter a Group Name
The first step will be to enter a name for the resource group. To do so, click on the text field showing New Group and then type a name for your new resource group. In the example below, the resource has been given the name "Eng + French Translations".
Step 2: Select a Client (Optional)
A resource group may be optionally assigned to a specific client. If you do not do so, then it can simply be assigned to a project or included as part of the new order form configuration for any client within the system.

| Warning |
|---|
If you assign the resource group to a client, it will only be an available selection option for that client. Do not do this if you want the resource group to be used for more than one client in the system. |
Step 3: Add Resources
Next, you will need to add your resources to the group. This can be any combination of translation memories and terminology databases in the system. You may also assign more than one of each to the group. To begin, click on Add Resource.
...
Clicking on Details for a resource will direct you to the Resource Details Tab for that item.
Step 4: Save the Group
Once all resources have been added, click on OK in the upper right corner to save the group.

| Note |
|---|
The example above shows resource groups that have been assigned to specific clients. If the group has not been assigned to a client, then nothing will appear within the "Assigned to specific client" column. |
Additional Actions
Once a group has been created, a few additional actions can be performed by clicking on Select or using the Down Arrow displayed to the right of each resource group. When you click on Select, you will be able to view the details of the Resource Group.

| Info |
|---|
Additionally, a resource group may be assigned to each work selection option on the New Order Form and automatically applied when a client or internal user places an order through the Client Portal for the checked work option on the form. |
Adding Resource Groups to Projects
A resource group may be used to quickly add resources to an existing project or to further automate project creation in the system. Resource groups may be included in the new order form configuration for automatic assignment during order submission in the Client Portal.
