# Create an Item Brand

### How to Create an Item Brand in Muhasib ERP

The brand becomes selectable on Item records and available to needed searches/reports.

### Who can do this

You need access to The your Muhasib installation currently appears to gate Item Brand with Item Category view/add/update/delete rights. Confirm this before assigning access.

### Before you start

Search existing brands and agree on official spelling.

Back Office → Items &amp; Advanced Inventory → Manage Items → brand add/selection workflow, or the verified brand master route.
