# Adding a Category, Position/Title or Skills

If what you need is to filter guards by their Title or Skills, follow the next steps to assign these characteristics to the employees you need:

- First of all, we must make sure that the title or skill that we need to assign is configured correctly, for this, go to the '**Master Company Settings**' tab on the main menu on the left-hand side of the StaffWizard page.
- On the panel that was displayed, on the tabs that are on the top of the page, make sure you are on the "**Master Controls**" tab.
- On the left-hand side menu of the panel displayed, select the "**Position/Title**" tab.

- You need a Category first to have a Position/Title, so select the **'Category'** tab and you can search for one that is already created o add a new one.

- In this case, hit the **\[+Add new category\]** button and a pop-up window will appear, here assign the name of the category and hit the **\[Add\]** button. The new category will appear at the end of the list. Remember that the **'Status'** button must be enabled for the category to populate the options on the next steps.
