# How to add a Property to a Product

[Similar jobs in succession](https://www.youtube.com/embed/rW8g5D3ALs4?feature=oembed)

**Properties** is a SkyPlanner feature that allows you to categorize products based on shared characteristics.

You can link a specific property to specific workstations and, if you select to use "**Allow similarity**", SkyPlanner will group orders that share this property consecutively if it doesn't affect the other**Dynamic Priorities rules**you have set up.

The primary purpose of Properties is to save setup time and enhance control over resource management, ultimately streamlining production planning.

- **Go to** the **Warehouse** module and select **Products**.
- **Find** the product to which you want to add a property and **click** on it.
- In the product's management panel, go to the **Properties** tab.
- Click on **Manage properties** on the left side.
- A new window will open — click **+ Add property**.
- In the pop-up window, enter a **name** for the property. This should represent a category you want specific products to share, such as **Raw Material**, **Dimensions**, **Color**. When you're done, click **OK**, then **Close**.
- Back in the product view, click the blue**+ Add property** button on the right.
- From the dropdown, select the property you just created.
- Enter a **value** for this property — this will be used to group jobs.

**Example**: If the property is **Color**, values could be **Red**, **Blue**, or **Green**.

Note: Remember the product needs to have an attribute related to the product.

Once you have added a value, click **Save properties**.

Now you have added a property to a product!
