An extension to the idea here:
An option to copy a translation from one column to others. Beneficial for column names being (slightly) different for purpose of database recognition, but visually in a GUI the translation could be the same.
Other reason for different column names could be:
- Different developers;
- Insight change;
- Dependencies of external sources/services.
Best option would probably be selecting the columns you wish changes and be able to select the one source column in the task.
An example of column names that could possibly result into the same translation: “active”, “is_active”, “active_yn”, “is_active_ny”.
Especially in a multi language application the maintenance of translations is quite cumbersome.
