Correct Picklist Values
In order to make the language feature work you need to allign three language picklist fields:
- Text Blocks.ADvendio__Language__c
- Media Campaign.ADvendio__Quote_Language__c
- Commitment.ADvendio__DocumentLanguage__c (careful this one is using 7.2.9.1 Picklist Values Sets (Global Picklists))
The API names of the values in all three lists need to use the two character code for the language, i.e. en for English:
Global Picklist: Language Code
Picklist: TextBlock.Language
Add Text Blocks to a Media Campaign
Add the related list "Selected Assigned text blocks" to the Media Campagne page layout.
If you use the button "New text block MC Assignments" you can assign text blocks to your Media Campaigns. All text blocks will be displayed at the end of the last page. You can add as many text blocks as you want.
