I have a business rules below to update the translated HTML (tracking_history) field with comments and work notes
So far the update is working in english language but somehow it doesn't update the field when i switch the language to french , i cannot update the tracking_history field. See the logs below,
current value of the field is test 3, test4 , test1, test 2
new value to be included test 5, test 6, with the current field value
Do we have anyone have the same issue as this?

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:
ServiceNow Dynamic Translation
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
