A Modern Time Off Calendar, and Translation for Quick Text

Interpreters get a modern, accessible Time Off calendar, the Translation Center now translates typed text directly with optional translation memory, and calendars gain display settings.

Two meaningful arrivals this week, one for interpreters and one for anyone who needs a quick translation.

Time off, on a calendar built for it

Interpreters can now manage time off on a modern calendar: full-year view, weekends visually distinguished, and high-contrast, keyboard-friendly controls that meet WCAG 2.2, the accessibility standard that keeps software usable for everyone, including people who navigate by keyboard or use a screen reader. Recording unavailability takes seconds, and because scheduling already honors time off, what you mark here immediately shapes the open events you are offered.

Translate text, not just documents

The Translation Center now handles typed text directly: paste a paragraph, submit, and receive the translation in place, no file required. A new toggle routes the request through your translation memory, the growing library of your organization's past approved translations, so established terminology is honored even on quick jobs.

Also this week

  • Calendar display settings: a new settings panel controls is being prepared allowing you to select which totals and categories your calendar shows.
  • Allow bill and pay: staff can now clear specific events for billing and payment through a confirmed action, useful for exceptions that should move ahead of the usual flow.
