Improved localization procedures and prioritization for applications

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• determining, for a software application, a set of database tables containing information used by the software application;
• for an item associated with the software application, querying the set of database tables for entries related to the item, wherein the entries related to the item are in a first language;
• generating, for display on a graphical user interface, a representation of a first pane and a second pane, wherein the first pane contains the entries related to the item in the first language, and wherein the second pane contains data input elements for translations of the entries related to the item into a second language;
• transmitting, to a client device, the representation of the first pane and the second pane;
• receiving, from the client device, data entered into the data input elements of the second pane;
• and
• storing, in the set of the database tables, the data entered into the data input elements as a translation to the second language of the entries related to the item.

An article of manufacture including a non-transitory computer-readable medium, having stored thereon program instructions that, upon execution by a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:

• determining, for a software application operational on the computing system, a set of database tables containing information used by the software application;
• for an item associated with the software application, querying the set of database tables for entries related to the item, wherein the entries related to the item are in a first language;
• generating, for display on a graphical user interface, a representation of a first pane and a second pane, wherein the first pane contains the entries related to the item in the first language, and wherein the second pane contains data input elements for translations of the entries related to the item into a second language;
• transmitting, to a client device, the representation of the first pane and the second pane;
• receiving, from the client device, data entered into the data input elements of the second pane;
• and
• storing, in the set of the database tables, the data entered into the data input elements as a translation to the second language of the entries related to the item.
