# Territories & Filtering

> Create territories in InsureTrek to group states and lines of authority for your producers, then filter state licenses by LOA to see who holds each one.

## Creating Territories

As an agency admin, you will be able to create and manage territories for your agency on InsureTrek.

### What are Territories?

Territories on InsureTrek are a collection of Lines of Authority along with the states where you want your producers to operate. This helps you to add a group of LOAs along with states to Producers quickly.

### Steps to Create a Territory

1. Log in to your InsureTrek account.
2. Go to **Agency > Territories**.
3. Click on the **Create** button on the top right corner.
