-====== How to manage several associations ======
+====== How to manage your associations ======
-''Tutorial under development''
+DropIt needs to know how to process files and folders, to automate it.
-''>> describe the use of Profiles''
+So it allows you to create an unlimited number of associations between Rules to filter files/folders and the Action to process them.
+In addition, if you have lots of associations, DropIt allows you also to organize them in separated profiles.
+\\
+----
+===== Manage Associations =====
+Select "Associations" from the DropIt context menu to manage them.
+{{ :02.png?nolink&300 |}}
+You can click the "+" button to create an association or double-click an existing association to edit it. You can also right-click an association to "Edit" it, to "Duplicate" it, to "Copy to..." another profile or to "Delete" it.
+You can create an unlimited number of associations and they are saved in the currently used profile. You can easily switch between profiles using the combo box of this window.
+For each association you have to define:
+  - __a unique Name__ to recognize it,
+  - some Rules to filter files and folders,
+  - the Action to process them
+  - and the related Destination.
+For additional information to create your associations you can read tutorials like:\\
+[[howto:filter_files_and_folders|How to filter files and folders]]\\
+[[howto:customize_destinations|How to customize destinations]]
