How do I compile a report with corrected errors?

In a translation project with locked segments I had to unlock these segments and correct errors. After this step I didn't lock the segments again.

Is there a way to compile a report that lists all corrected errors or to create a table with the original (locked) translations and my corrected segment translations?

Did you use Track changes? Apr 17, 2023

I'm not sure if you can create a table with only the changed segments, but if you used Track changes, you can use Export for bilingual review. In the resulting Word file, the changes are visible.

I didn't use them but I was thinking of this approach:

  • Export the original sdlxliff to xlsx.
  • Export the new sdlxliff to xlsx.
  • Compare the target columns.

If you simply want to compare two SDLXLIFF files, try ChangeTracker. There is the new online version:
