Scope/Environment	SDL TMS

Symptoms/Context

Translations units (TUs) containing "StructureContext" attribute names will not be present in SDLTM formats despite SDL TMS applies such TUs to bilingual files.

Here is an example:

<header creationtool="SDLX Managed Framework" creationtoolversion="12.0.26689.0" segtype="sentence" o-tmf="sdlxTM" />
	<body>		
		<tu tuid="0" srclang="en-US">
			<tuv xml:lang="en-US">
				<seg>Test</seg>
			</tuv>
			<tuv xml:lang="ru-RU" creationdate="20190227T141419Z" creationid="xyz" usagecount="0">
				<prop type="x-ALS:Context">TEXT</prop>
				<prop type="x-ALS:Source File">TMXImport</prop>
				<prop type="x-ALS:StructureContext">x-tm-listitem</prop>
				<seg>Test</seg>
			</tuv>
		</tu>
			</body>
</tmx>

Resolution

Custom StructureContext TM attribute will need to be removed from TMS TMs, since such attribute name is not supported by SDL Trados Studio (up to and including version 2021 SR1 CU3).

Root Cause

SDL Trados Studio (up to and including version 2021 SR1 CU3) will not import TUs from TMX file into SDLTM format, if translation units contain attribute called StructureContext. This is by design.

UPDATE:As of Cumulative Update 4 for SDL Trados Studio 2021 SR1 (Build 16.1.4.4184, released on 3 March 2021) StructureContext is imported into SDLTM format. It is only supported from SDL TMS 12.6
