[Resolved] Switch automatic translations on and off regularly

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client wants to know if there is any harm in switching between the Advanced Translation Editor and the Classic Translation Editor, as well as turning automatic translations on and off.
Solution:
We recommend reviewing our documentation on Switching from Classic to Advanced Translation Editor, which provides detailed guidance on this process. There is no harm in switching between the editors or toggling automatic translations on and off. However, if you need further assistance or clarification after reviewing the documentation, please don't hesitate to open a new support ticket in our support forum.

When using automatic translations, we are forced to use the Advanced Translation Editor. We don't really like this editor, so after we translated everything, we switched automatic translations off and classic editor on. But new products need translations too. So I'd like to switch to the Advanced Translation Editor and switch automatic translations on again.
Is there any harm in doing so: switching automatic translations and editors on and off?
Regards, Paul
