### Q: Can I define more than one WIT in a category that I use for a portfolio backlog?
308293
309-
Yes.
294+
A: Yes.
310295
For example, you can add Goal and Initiative WITs to a portfolio backlog category.
311296
The main restriction is to not add the same WIT to two different categories that you assign to one of the following sections for process configuration: a ```PortfolioBacklog```, ```RequirementBacklog```, or ```TaskBacklog```.

A: While you can nest backlog items, nesting isn't recommended.
318301
Drag-and-drop linking of nested backlog items isn't supported.
319302
Instead, use [mapping of backlog items to portfolio items](../boards/backlogs/organize-backlog.md).
320303
321304
For examples of how hierarchically linked items that belong to the Requirements Category appear on the backlogs and boards, see [How backlogs and boards display hierarchical (nested) items](../boards/backlogs/resolve-backlog-reorder-issues.md).
