Require acceptance of task/project | This feature enables Project Managers to confirm the availability of Linguists and/or LSPs for the workflow step they have been assigned to. These users will receive emails informing them about a task Linguists need to accept or a project LSPs need to accept before being able to start working on it. XTM Cloud will send Project Managers an email as soon as one of the Linguists or LSPs assigned to the project accepts or declines the task or the project. When you enable this parameter, from the available options, select System default:
