An application category is a grouping of applications by their purpose and function, fields, or areas.

You can create an application category or edit an existing one to align it with your business requirements.
* **[Add or edit an application category](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/92TndnX_a4JhN3~LmECO0Q)**   
  Each application should have an application category defined. This field is used to describe the purpose of the application, and the key business function this application supports. You can keep the categorization at a high level, like a business function. For example, Sales, HR, Marketing, and Manufacturing.
