Client Script getMessage no found translation the first time

[Nicolas Leduc]

Hi all !

I put the code below in a variable set catalog client script.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}

var choice = g_form.getValue('u_end_of_service');
var message = '';

switch(choice) {
case 'Resignation by employee':
message = getMessage("Please attach the following documents :"); 
g_form.showFieldMsg('u_end_of_service', message, 'info', false);
message = "- " + getMessage("Resignation letter");
g_form.showFieldMsg('u_end_of_service', message, 'info', false);
message = "- " + getMessage("Agreement of the P&O Director");
g_form.showFieldMsg('u_end_of_service', message, 'info', false);
break;
case 'End of a fixed-term contract or a replacement contract':
message = getMessage("Please attach the following documents :");
g_form.showFieldMsg('u_end_of_service', message, 'info', false);
message = "- " + getMessage("Excel list");
g_form.showFieldMsg('u_end_of_service', message, 'info', false);
break;
case 'Decease of an employee':
message = getMessage("Please attach a copy of the death notice as an attachment");
g_form.showFieldMsg('u_end_of_service', message, 'info', false);
break;
case 'Pension':
message = getMessage("Please attach the agreement of the Federal Pension Service as an annex");
g_form.showFieldMsg('u_end_of_service', message, 'info', false);
break;
default:
message = '';
g_form.hideFieldMsg('u_end_of_service');
break;
}
}

In english, it's functionnal, but when i try to use another language, it's not functionnal at the first time.

The translation is in System Localization >Messages menu.

When the form load, i select my choice (Resignation by employee in french for exemple) and the text is in english.

If i select another choice, the text is also in english.

But, if i select Resignation by employee again, the text is in french. I need to see a second time the message to get the translation...

How can i get it the first time ?

Thank you for your answer 🙂

Remove (line 2,3,4 )this part and try:

if (isLoading || newValue == '') { return; }

Please mark as Correct Answer and Helpful, if applicable.

Hi Abhishek, 

I try this solution, and the translation is found the second time like every time.

But thanks for this test 🙂

Hi there,

Are you applying the Messages field on the Catalog Client Scripts? Out-of-the-box this field is not on the form lay-out, you can just add it (it's an excisting field).

This should solve your issue. We encountered this before also with our Dutch language.

If my answer helped you in any way, please then mark it as helpful.

Kind regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,

What do you mean by appllying the messages field on the catalog client script ?

I just create a variable set and add a client script in it so no i suppose 

Thanks for your answer,
