   Hello. I have created the translation of the .po file, but some entries are 
   not updated. I need to translate the stock manager column names.
 * Should I do it another way?
 * Greetings

   It appears that the JavaScript
   strings are not being included in the `.pot` file and this is causing a problem
   as the column names in the JavaScript code are the same.We will look into this
   and keep you posted.

 * Leaving aside the pot file, I have translated the strings, for example, from 
   the ScreenOptions.js file, but I can’t get it to be reflected either. Should 
   it be done another way?

   {__(‘**Mostrar columnas**‘, ‘woocommerce-stock-manager’)}

   As you directly made changes
   in the `.js` file, it will not reflect. Because the Stock Manager for WooCommerce
   plugin requires some build process for the `.js` file changes to be compiled 
   into a single file and from where its reflected on the UI.Also, the strings that
   you are referring to are JavaScript strings and in order to translate them, you
   need to have JSON files along with .po and .mo files as described [here](https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/how-to-guides/internationalization/#create-translation-file).
 * Could you try using the Loco Translate plugin for translating the same strings
   and do let us know if that works for you or not? Click [here](https://www.storeapps.org/docs/how-to-translate-storeapps-plugins/)
   for further reference on the same.
