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 {#lf-support-for-catalog-items__section_kq5_qt3_xpb}

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://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/ksQEsaaN5yoAF5fWb3OkDA "You can define translation and workflow preferences for one or more languages and for one or all the available artifacts with Localization Framework settings.").
* 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://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/tfcgtUkjHYFcIbSbZYImtQ "The Localization Insights dashboard provides reports on translations, grouped into tabs by artifact type. The reports are generated by scheduled jobs based on Localization Insights records.").
