In order to trade with a real or prop firm account, you need to have the option for "Trade >> Trade Simulation Mode On" disabled (no checkmark next to it). Then the orders are sent to the connected service.

As we said, the service you use should be keeping the orders on their servers, so you should not have to worry about what you are doing within the Sierra Chart software when you are doing this. Unless you are specifically using orders that are "Market if Touched" or have the word "Client" in them - with these you are specifying that the order is kept on the local Sierra Chart and not sent until it becomes an actionable order.

If you find the Target or Stop is not being properly held by the service you are connecting to, then we would need to see your "Trade Service Log" when you have a problem with this. Refer to the following:
