Fill in the required fields. These include:

* **Program Name**: The name of your new NATS Program.
* **Short Name**: A short name for your Program.
* **Program Type**: The Program type defines how the program collects its data and what the payouts mean.
* **Affiliate Enrollment**: Choose between a program with Automatic Affiliate Enrollment or Manual Affiliate Enrollment.
  * *Automatic Enrollment*: All new affiliates will be automatically enrolled into this Program at the time that they create an account. Affiliates already in your NATS will not be automatically enrolled.
  * *Manual Enrollment*: New affiliates will not be automatically enrolled into the Program, and will have to be manually enrolled. Please see the [Affiliate Overview](/nats-admin/affiliates/affiliate-overview.md) Programs Tab on how to do so.
* **Options (Program Is Hidden)**: If this is set to hide a Program, then the Program will not appear in Link Codes and Ad Tools sections for the Affiliate, so they cannot directly link to them. To set this option, click the checkbox.

## Deleting a Program

To delete a program, locate the program you want to delete and click the "Actions" button to the right of the program and click "Delete, Remove and Redirect".

In order to delete a program, you need to also redirect the affiliates in your program to a new program. Thus, you will have to choose a new program that will enroll all the affiliates in the program to the new program and redirect traffic.
