A translation list is a **group of products** to translate in one go — handy for a new collection, say, or for all products missing Russian text.

Open **Translations → Translation lists**.

## 1. Create a list

Click **New list** and fill in:

- **name**;
- **From language** and **To languages** (several allowed);
- **How to translate**:
  - **Background, cheaper** — about **50% cheaper**, results within minutes to a few hours (default);
  - **Instantly** — product by product, full price;
- **Engine** — only connected engines are available. In *Instantly* mode you can choose the company default.

## 2. Add products

- On the list page paste **SKUs** (up to 1000 at a time), or
- in the product list select products → **Add to translation list**, or
- on the product page in the **Translation** panel → **Add to list**.

## 3. Check the volume and price

The **How much will be translated** block shows the character count and the approximate price. **Only missing** fields and those whose source changed are counted — text written by a person is neither sent nor overwritten. Click **Recalculate** after adding products.

If you see *Price not known yet*, the engine has no price entered — you can still translate, and you'll see the cost afterwards under **Costs**.

## 4. Run it

Click **Translate in background** (or **Translate list**) and confirm. Each language is sent separately. The page refreshes itself every 10 seconds.

List states: *draft → queued → in progress → completed* (or *error*).

## Good to know

- Deleting a list **doesn't delete** translations already written.
- While a list is queued or in progress, it can't be changed.
- Check the finished translations under [Needs review](/hc/pim/articles/en-translation-review).
