Missing Localization for MDMS Schemas Created via Postman

[jagankumar-egov]

Description: Currently, MDMS schemas are being created through Postman, which bypasses the creation of necessary localization messages. This leads to several issues when users access the MDMS/Workbench UI:

1. Localization Absence:

   • Users do not create localization when adding data via Postman. As a result, when they visit the MDMS or Workbench UI, they see fields displayed as code since the screen expects localized messages for every field name.

2. Non-Readable UI:

   • The entire screen displays non-user-readable codes for fields, which impacts usability and clarity. This is because the UI assumes and expects localization messages for each field in the schema.

3. Proposed Approach:

   • We should implement an event-based approach or an alternative mechanism that ensures a localization message is automatically created for every property in a schema when it is created.
   • This default localization message would provide a more user-friendly interface, displaying proper messages when users visit the screen.

4. Standardization for Localization:

   • To ensure uniqueness and consistency, a prefix should be added to every field's localization key. This prefix should follow the format: {schemaCode}_fieldName. This will help standardize how localization messages are created for each schema field.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create an MDMS schema via Postman without providing localization.
2. Access the MDMS or Workbench UI.
3. Observe that the screen displays non-localized codes instead of user-friendly messages.

Expected Behavior:

• Localization messages should automatically be generated for every property in the schema with a default message, ensuring that users see proper, user-readable fields on the UI.

Additional Notes:

• Implementing this approach will help improve the user experience and ensure that fields are localized appropriately across the MDMS and Workbench UI.

We previously discussed this issue during the "Localization <> Master Data" meeting held on Wednesday, September 25, from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM. The attendees were @jagankumar-egov @eGovMan @Rishabh-egov @varunreddy-egov Krishna

@Rishabh-egov , please add the discussion points and proposed approaches from the meeting here.

@jagankumar-egov - I thought we are calling it Admin Console and not Workbench. 😀
