occurring
Happening, appearing, or showing up. This word is often used to describe the appearance of phenomena, problems, symptoms, or characteristics.

'Auftretend' (occurring) is the present participle of the verb 'auftreten' (to appear, to occur). It is used like an adjective before a noun to describe it.
Plötzlich auftretende Schmerzen sollten Sie ärztlich abklären lassen.
You should have suddenly occurring pain checked by a doctor.
This form is typical of written language, especially in formal, scientific, or medical texts. In spoken language, people would more likely use a relative clause.

present / available
'vorliegend' and 'auftretend' can both appear in more formal texts when talking about cases, problems, or data. The difference lies in the point of view: 'vorliegend' describes something that is already present or available for review. 'auftretend' describes something that appears, occurs, or shows up, for example a problem or a symptom. Learners may confuse the words because both can be used with problems or cases. If something is already there as material or as a case, 'vorliegend' fits. If something happens or becomes visible, 'auftretend' fits.
Bei plötzlich auftretenden Schmerzen sollte man eine Ärztin anrufen.
If sudden pain occurs, you should call a doctor.
