In order to use a translation memory for analysis, pre-translation, or actual translation in an editor, the TM must be assigned to a project.
Multiple TMs can be assigned to one project and a single TM can be assigned to multiple projects. There can be up to 10 TMs assigned to each project per language and workflow step.
It is recommended to add TMs for all of languages (workflow steps) first and then add a specific TM for a given language (workflow step) to ensure it will not be removed.
