Create Resource Groups
Once at least one Translation Memory and Terminology Database exists exist within the system, you can then create a resource group for these items. This is much easier than manually configuring selecting each linguistic resource to be used for a client or project in the system. Resource groups may be created for specific types of projects, to group resource per translation domain, per client, or per product, for particular clients.For example, if instance.The idea is that whenever you create a resource group for CoDyt projects in the system, then this group may be automatically configured for new projects or submitted orders in the system. The resource group, when configured appropriately, will be automatically used and updated in the system as work is completedtranslation 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:

Once the project memory that you will be building during your project starts being filled, it will be considered by default as first the first reference for pretranslation or propagation of contents. You can disable this behaviour in the dedicated page for the resource or globally for any Project Memory |
| Tip |
|---|
Note that you can set up an order for your resources so that the first in the list has the top priority, after the Project Memory. This functionality will be useful when there is a need to differentiate or set priorities between segment matches to show some common attributes (same % score, status, language specificity, etc). Learn more about search and pre-translation criteria in the FAQ page. The order of the resources in a group is the 5th criteria taken into account to choose the best candidate between two segment matches, being the first resource in the list the one with the highest priority. To avoid having translation matches with similar % rates, you can consider defining penalties for specific resources so their % rates are handled with less priority when pre-translating documents or using the Translation Finder. |
