Hello Matt,

technically you updating record's value correctly. But you don't updating translations of that value. Translations are captured in the table Translated Texts [sys_translated_text].
You can try to find the translation in that table by:

  • Document = record Sys ID
  • Field Name = tracking_history

Documentation: Translated text table 

I am not sure if the field type Translated HTML is suitable for your needs. You want to translate the value dynamically so perphaps look for Dynamic Translation application:

If my answer helped you, please mark it as correct and helpful, thank you 👍

Thanks for this martin, it is actually i want to depict an activity formatter since we cannot have 2 activity formatters in one table. This field label will be hidden and the field turn to read only to depict activity formatter
