I completed a large project in SDL Studio 2011 (which I only use for this client) but after making the final corrections I find the TM hasn't updated with the corrections. The "Update" box is checked and I even tried creating a new blank TM for this job. I tried Update Main and Project Translation Memories, both without success.

I completed a large project in SDL Studio 2011 (which I only use for this client) but after making the final corrections I find the TM hasn't updated with the corrections. The "Update" box is checked and I even tried creating a new blank TM for this job. I tried Update Main and Project Translation Memories, both without success. But when I do that I get an error message for each segment: "The translation memory cannot import the translation unit because the translation memory does not have a field corresponding to a field in the translation unit." I don't see any explanation for this and I don't understand it because the TM was updating properly until I made the final corrections to the text after proofreading. I haven't done anything to the translation units or the TM.

Can anyone explain how I can get the TMs to update? ▲ Collapse

Perhaps this will help. But if not, perhaps the answer is to just import the sdlxliff into your TM directly instead, to get over this issue for now.

If you, or anyone else, can help me to reproduce it then I'll take it into support so we can determine the reason and try to get it fixed.
