GA: Source and medium are not tracked correctly

I have created a Google Ads campaign and for all the url's I have defined an standard url to track them. These url are for example: http://www.example.com/?url_source=s1&utm_medium=m1&utm_campaign=c1. I use this page https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/campaign-url-builder/ to create them.

But, when I go to Acquisition > All the traffic > Source/Medium I see that most of these url are not tracked correctly and are tracked like google/cpc and not with the values given in variables utm_source and utm_medium

What happen? How can I do to track correctly all the url's?

I guess you use autotagging in Google Ads. You need to allow manual tagging (UTM values) to override auto-tagging in Property Settings in GA. Otherwise in Acquisition > All the traffic > Source/Medium you will see douplicated strings.
