Translation errors in French language pack

[Doudounka]

Hello,

Spent many hours trying to figure out why a workflow wasn't working within the parameters I set to it.

So I checked, rechecked, deleted, redid, rechecked the workflow and it still didn't work withing parameters.

Parameters are quite simple

When and OPP changes to the sale stage won AND that the amount is over 49000.00

In french it looks like this :

Quand un champ du module cible contient une valeur spécifiée Montant: Supérieur à 49000.00
Quand Phase de vente: est modifié pour ou vers une valeur spécifiée Egal Gagné

If you run this in babelfish you'll see it's withing parameters. but wasn't working. So this morning I thought, what if what i see written in french is not what it is in english and TADA

Under english platform :
When a field in the target module contains a specified value Opportunity Amount: Less Than 49000.00
When Sales Stage: changes to or from specified value Equals Closed Won

You can see that it's giving me a go on OPP's under 49000 where as in french i want Superior.

So will change the workflow in english.

But is there anyway to correct the language packs ?

Anyone know if there are other MAJOR mistakes like that, that makes you loose time ?

Thank you

Have a nice day

Using studio you can fix the translation values.
Use the dropdown Editor, there you can select for each language what will be its values on dropdown. Then is possible for you translate the label (what user see) and maintanin the value (what system use) in english.

Thank you Rafael,

That did the trick.

Was a bit long to find the right string for it, but going through the list one by one made it.

thank you again.

Just a hint.
If you find the field defs in some varfeds file of your module, there is an attribute named:
'options' => 'list_name',

Then you can easialy find which list is your field using.
