Yes, there is such a function. I cannot locate it in Options>Keyboard Shortcuts though.
Simply open the file for translation, put your cursor into the first segment (not the orange XLIFF header in the top row). Click Ctrl+Alt+F. This will locate the next segment where 1) there is no entries in the TM for some reason, 2) the TM entry is different than the actual target text for that segment, 3) there are multiple different target entries in the TM for the same source segment.

I love that function.

Just wanted to say thanks! I know you posted this 5 months ago, but I needed exactly this function today and there was your answer :-)

Çok teşekkürler Koral Bey!

This is really fantastic! Thanks!!!

Hi,
I am looking exactly for that function. But in Trados Studio 2024, Ctrl+Alt+F does not have any effect. Does somebody know if there is another shortcut, or another solution?

The shortcut seems to have been changed to CTRL+ALT+B. This is the Confirm menu in the ribbon:

Ok, thank you, Ctrl+Alt+B works :-)
But in my case, I have too many segments corresponding to case "3)" described by Koral:

I really would appreciate if these error messages ("Different target in translation memory") could be considered as a classical "QA Checker" test (in the "Inconsistencies" dialog), and be listed in the [Messages] window.

I think this is good idea to be posted in the Ideas section: https://community.rws.com/ideas/trados-portfolio-ideas/i/trados-studio#pifragment-25674sortBy=date

That way our peers can vote it up and RWS may consider implementing it…

BTW: I remember some years ago a private pluging checking exactly that. Maybe RWS can develop a similar plugin.
