Differences between live TM mode and non-live mode

The following table summarizes some of the differences in behavior between live translation memory mode and non-live mode:
Area Live mode on Live mode off
TM update Whenever segment cache is touched. On explicit calls to update TM. (Note that all entries added to TM are set to Reviewed.)
Browser Workbench No Save and Update TM button. Has a Save and Update TM button as in previous WorldServer versions.
XLZ import No Update the translation memory using imported assets check box. Has an Update the translation memory using imported assets check box as in previous versions of WorldServer.
Import of other translation kit formats (besides XLZ) Segments with a none status are set to Pending Review. No special behavior.
User type permissions and ACL permissions The following user type permissions are meaningless and hidden:
  • Can save asset and update TM
  • Can modify TM during upload
If a user that has only Read ACL permissions for a TM opens an asset in Browser Workbench, the workbench does not present a Save button and displays this message: 
WARNING: You do not have permission to update
translation memory "<TM>". Write permission
is required when using Live Translation Memory.
Please contact your WorldServer Administrator.

For the user to be able to work in the Browser Workbench in Live TM mode, the administrator must give that user Write ACL permissions for that TM.

Same as in previous versions of WorldServer.
Logging Anytime WSAssetTranslation. saveTranslationToTm() is called, a warning is logged with a stack trace. No special behavior.
Leverage TM entry translation status affects segment status. TM entry translation status does not affect segment status unless Segment Asset automatic action is used with Set Translation Statuses? and Maximum Translation Status for 100% Matches arguments set to Yes and Pending.
