Introduction

Sometimes, a phrase or an expression was incorrectly is translated into a particular language incorrectly throughout the entire project cycle. As a consequence, such the incorrect translation ends up in your TM base and is later proposed inaccurately database. Later, it is (incorrectly) offered as a TM match in further other XTM Cloud projects.

If the scope of the change you are going to perform is not excessively huge only need to change the phrase or expression in a few TM segments (a relatively small number of segmentsTM records), or the phrase or expression is quite fairly short (usually no more than one word), you can quickly update it make the changes manually, quickly, directly in the XTM Cloud UI, without resorting to exporting . In these cases, there is no need to export your TM data, updating update it offline, manually , and importing reimport it back again. The method described here is also less error-prone, as you do not have to watch out for the TM-specific settings in the XTM Cloud UI, as opposed to the process of in a manual update. Nonetheless, it is a good practice that such changes performed on large-scale TM base should be first consulted to consult with the XTM Support team before performing changes of this kind in a large TM.
