Error: Trados reverted to first version of the file

Hello everyone!

I haven't found any info on why this happens, so I would love some feedback from you:

  • The translator did everything properly, confirmed all segments and did the "check in" process for the file. However, when the PM went through the "check out" process, the project had reverted to the first version of the file, the one we had immediately after the first 'pre-translate'.

I posted here because I only ever had this issue while working with Trados Groupshare and not with packages. We were able to get the right version of the file by using "get specific version", but it is an issue when less experienced PMs access the file and not immediately realize there is an issue or when proofreaders access the file.

So, is there a known cause for this? And how can we avoid it?

Thanks in advance for all your help.
