Auto-propagation is not working as expected. Once I confirm a segment, the propagation does not behave correctly.

I have attached a screenshot for your reference. Kindly review and advise.

In this case, I confirmed segment no. 91. However, the same translation has been auto-propagated to the remaining segments without updating the numerics accordingly. I have corrected manually later.

Please suggest a solution.

A table showing segments with translations. Segment 91 has 'INR 500 Per instance' translated correctly, but segment 93 shows 'INR 100' not updated correctly in the translation.

    Hello  

    Auto‑propagation in Trados Team copies confirmed translations to identical segments but does not dynamically adjust variable elements such as numbers.
    In your example, the system propagated the translation from segment 91 to similar segments without modifying the numeric values.
    This is expected behavior in the Online Editor.

    As a workaround, we recommend reviewing propagated segments manually or enabling QA checks for number mismatches to prevent inconsistencies.
    See : Auto-propagation in Trados Online Editor and Auto-propagation rules:
    "Auto-propagation of segments which contain placeables will propagate the target segment to the segments that have the same source structure (for example exact text but different dates, numbers, measurements etc.). Placeable recognition is based on the language processing rules associated with the project, namely on the recognizers it has enabled and the formats of each type of placeable set for source and target languages. Only 100% matches will be propagated. Fuzzy matches will not be propagated.
    f. Mismatched number placeable between source and target of the confirmed segment or missing recognized placeable in target segment

    Translations are auto-propagated incorrectly to segments containing number placeables and matching text, when there is a mismatch between source and target number placeable of the confirmed segment or there is no placeable recognized in target."

    Let me know if this helps.
