The standard entities include default text for labels that are available in many different languages. However, when you customize a form, such as adding or changing fields, or create custom entities, you may need the labels for those components to appear in different languages. You can import translated label text for customized entities for your apps so that the label text displays in languages other than the base language.

Active customizations can prevent customizations from appearing at runtime. For example, managed solution changes don't appear at runtime or some components are missing. This behavior can occur if there is an active unmanaged layer for the component. You can resolve this by removing the component's unmanaged layer. More information: [Remove the unmanaged layer](solution-layers.md#remove-the-unmanaged-layer) -->

Imported translations may not appear when you view the solution layers for a component. Make sure the translations are on the <Label> level when you view the solution layer. Note that “displayname” tags are at the attribute level, so they will not translate labels. The “DisplayName” tags are actually for form labels and will translate form’s labels. For more information about viewing solution layers, see [Solution layers](solution-layers.md).
