# Configure standard change catalog properties

Configure the standard change catalog through the standard change properties.

The **Administration** menu and the **Standard Change Properties** module appear only after the plugin is active. To activate the plugin, see [Activate Change Management - Standard Change Catalog](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/it-service-management/change-management/t_ActivateStandardChangeCatalog.md).
