# Add Folder Ownership

You can add folder ownership to an account in either of two ways:

- Drag and Drop: see Drag & Drop for details

| Tips | If you don't see the Hierarchy Tree, click Hierarchy from the Menu/Hierarchy toggle , located at the left side of the MetraCare window. To select multiple accounts, hold down the CTRL key first, and then click on the accounts and folders you want to select.

- Advanced: see Type in Account IDs for details

If the assignment was successful, the added folder(s) will be added to the list of owned folders, and the current account name will appear next to the folder in the hierarchy tree, in parenthesis.

If it fails, check the Guide window for details about why the procedure failed. One common reason for failure is when the folder is already owned by another account.
