# Add a Position

Positions are group values used to organize employees by job role, such as Manager, Cashier, Technician, or Supervisor. Before you can add positions, the **Position** group type must first exist under **Group Structure**.

**Important:** Positions are created in **Group Values**, but the Position group type must first be configured in **Group Structure**.

Learn more in [**Configuring Groups, Management Levels, and Approval Processes**](/main/docs/configuring-groups-management-levels-and-approval-processes).

## Add a position

1. Go to **Global Settings > Platform Settings > Group Values**.
2. Select **Position**.
3. Click the ellipsis icon, then select **Add**.
4. Enter the position name.
5. Configure any additional fields if applicable.
6. Click **Save**.
