  • Show all dates (published/delivery date)

    • Planned for Future Release on
    • 0 Comments
    Hi all, I'd like to have a "show all" published or delivery date option, so you don't have to set 2000-2050 dates to show all projects. Regards, Bruno Ciola
  • Client version check

    • Planned for Future Release on
    • 0 Comments
    It would be highly useful to see the Studio client version of each user connecting to GroupShare (or to display it in separate column on users' list). Obviously the version would only update upon connection, but even "last known client version" would...
  • Restore detached projects - or remove the 'Detached' option from the search filter

    • Planned for Future Release on
    • 0 Comments
    What is the point of the 'Detached' option in the projects search filter (on the web interface)? GroupShare has no knowledge of detached projects - they're deleted from the DB except for a record of the background task having been run - so there's currently...
  • Exporting and importing Groupshare TMs

    • Planned for Future Release on
    • 1 Comment
    We do have several groupshare TMs with the number of language combination TMs higher than 50. Sometimes those TMs get corrupted or we want different general settings. In that case so far, we have to export each language TM manually (do this more than...
  • Customizable projects list in Project Server

    • Planned for Future Release on
    • 0 Comments
    This relates to my inquiry as to the API possibilities with the Project Server ( https://community.sdl.com/developers/language-developers/f/57/t/12438 ) but I'd like to propose that SDL adds a lot of this type of reporting, filtering etc. to the out of...
  • GroupShare Online Editor not available after finalization – Notification/display needed – GroupShare Online Editor read-only mode

    • Idea Delivered Partially on
    • 0 Comments
    Hi! If the file was finalized, it cannot be viewed (read-only mode should always be possible) in the OLE anymore. Studio at least gives a notification that it has to be reverted to *.sdlxliff. However, this does not apply to the GroupShare OLE. No...
  • All GroupShare resources/content to be downloaded via Web UI

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    Hi! Right now, it’s not possible to easily download resources. Terminology databases cannot be downloaded via Web UI at all (except there is MTO available). User friendliness could be improved by making them available as downloads (e.g. as...
  • GS - Notify all users in active projects

    • Under Community Review on
    • 0 Comments
    With new GS CU's, which require server downtime, I think every administrator or PM would greatly appreciate a feature where he / she could send »system notification mail« to users with work in progress. What exactly do I mean. The first option...
  • Automatic "Cancel check-out" after running certain administrative tasks

    • Under Community Review on
    • 2 Comments
    Certain administrative tasks such as Word Count or WIP report require the checking out of the files to perform them. Once the task has been run, all files need to be checked back in to GroupShare manually language by language. This is tedious and error...
  • Automatically grant permissions to reference files in the project

    • Under Community Review on
    • 1 Comment
    In GroupShare 2017, permissions are automatically granted to a translator when he/she is assigned to a phase and the current phase is changed to this phase. But reference files do not have phases and the translator cannot download the reference files...
