2973397 - Translatable Field Translation Change Not Reflecting In Workflow UI - Employee Central

Symptom

You have changed the translation for a field in an MDF object (e.g. changing the French translation for a field on the Position object), but when viewing a workflow for that object, the change in the translation does not show on the workflow ; it only shows when selecting the globe icon to see all translations.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

Cause

This is expected behaviour if your default locale (the 'language' you have set in your settings) is not the same as the locale the translation was changed for. For example, if your locale is English and you change the French translation, the translation change will not show on your workflow UI.

In order to see the translation value change in the workflow UI, you will need to change your locale to the language the translation was changed for (e.g. French). Otherwise, you can see the translations by clicking the globe icon to see all translations for the field. This workflow UI behaviour is the same as the regular UI behaviour.

Resolution

As this is the designed behavior by the system, consider open an enhancement request to propose a new idea:
