# Create and manage Journey types

Create plan types to manage the top-level classification for stages and tasks for Journey types, as well as the header views for users.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_jny.admin

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Journey Designer** > **Manage Journey Types**.

2.  Select **New**.

3.  In the **Title** field, enter a meaningful name for the type of journey that you are creating so that it is easily identifiable.

4.  Click the search icon next to a role to change the header configuration for that role.

    These fields contain default plan header configurations for the plan type.

    -   View for manager
    -   View for employee
    -   View for mentor
    See [Create and configure Journey designer headers](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/employee-service-management/journey-designer/jny-dsgnr-header-configuration.md) to customize headers for a plan.

5.  After you have selected any header configuration you want to change, select **Submit**.
