# Mapping Categories to Teams

2\. Mapping Categories to Teams

*When an action is raised in an assessment using the RiskBase application, the assessor has the option to assign it to a category (E.g., electrical repair, housekeeping etc.).*

*To automate the process of assigning tasks to users, RiskBase provides the capability to map categories to teams before an assessment is even started.*

*This means that when an action is assigned to a category in an assessment, it is automatically assigned to all users in the team it has been pre-mapped to.*

*Before mapping categories to teams, ensure that all teams have been correctly added with the correct users assigned to them: see Adding Users and Creating Teams.*

**How to map a category to a team:**

1. Sign in to [admin.riskbase.uk](http://admin.riskbase.uk).
2. Find an organisation in the explorer.
3. Right click on it and select **Details**.
4. Click the **Preferences** tab.
5. Scroll down to the **Categories** section.
6. Right click on a category and click **Edit Category**.
7. Click **Add Teams for a Task Type**.
8. Select a **Task Type** (E.g., Remedial or Create Assessment).
9. Select a **Team** for this category to be assigned to.
10. Click **Continue** and **Save**.

Next to the category it will now say ‘1 Team Responsible’ in grey (the number will change depending on how many teams have been assigned to the category).
