Manage Languages

Concepts

Multiple foreign languages can be associated with a Consumer organization. Adding foreign languages to a Consumer organization enables the Service Manager Service Portal Organization Administrator to translate the properties of items into a foreign language so the items can be viewed in the foreign language. The properties of catalogs, categories, and catalog items can be translated and viewed in foreign languages.

The Service Manager Service Portal Administrator can manage languages in all Consumer organizations.

The Service Manager Service Portal Organization Administrator can manage languages within one Consumer organization.
