Automatic and scheduled jobs focus on customer-facing copy. Technical fields stay in the source language unless you change them in the editor.
Skipped automatically
- URL handles and similar slugs
- Product types
- Links, URLs, and file references
- IDs, SKUs, barcodes, and short codes such as S / M / L
- JSON and other technical value types
- Empty source fields
- Locked fields you saved yourself
Can be filled when Missing or Outdated is selected
- Titles and descriptions
- SEO title and description
- Option names and similar labels
- Image alt text
- Other storefront-facing text fields
Recommendation
For scheduled jobs, start with Outdated only. Add Missing only when you also want first-time translations.
