Hello Drew, thanks for the suggestion. I've downloaded the demo version of the tool you recommended. I'm not sure though that it allows switching from one language to another. Ocassionally I need invoices in different languanges. Is this the only tool there is, or the only recommendable one? Thanks so much for your help. Nicole | | |
Hello Nicole, you can customize (i.e. also localize) the TO3000 invoice template directly in MS Word. Anyway, I suggest that you search ProZ forums for "project management" or "project management tools". This search will give you a number of useful hits. | |

You can easily create an invoice template for a different language in TO3000. Open the standard rtf template that comes with the program, translate it and save it under a different name. When you want to issue an invoice, simply select the corresponding template. The same applies to quotes. TO3000 takes quite a time to set up (entering all your clients' details, etc.), but you only have to do it once and from then on, creating new jobs, quotes and invoices is very quick indeed. | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Administration Tool Trados Business Manager Lite | Create customer quotes and invoices from within Trados Studio
