# Localization Framework support for Service Catalog items

Localization Framework enables translation of Service Catalog items when a catalog item is requested for translation into a language and a localization requested item \(LRITM\) is created.

## Localizing Service Catalog items

You can do the following tasks in Localization Framework for translating the Service Catalog items.

-   Select multiple languages from the available languages in the instance to configure settings with the Catalog Item artifact. To configure localization settings, see [Localization Framework settings](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-administration/localization-framework/localization-settings.md).
-   Create LRITM's by requesting translations into one or more languages.
-   Translate the content of the Service Catalog items directly using the edit translations option.
-   Read, edit, and machine translate the content, send the content to TMS, send the content via email, export, and import the content of the Service Catalog item.

    **Note:** Activate the Dynamic Translation plugin \(com.glide.dynamic\_translation\) to use machine translation in Localization Framework.

-   Approve and publish the translated content.
-   Monitor the overall localization health of the Service Catalog items from the [Localization Insights dashboard](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-administration/localization-framework/localization-insights-dashboard.md).

To request translations for a catalog item, see [Request translations for Service Catalog items](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-administration/localization-framework/request-translations-multiple-items.md).
