# Assign applications using roles in MDT
This article will show you how to add applications to a role in the MDT database and then assign that role to a computer. For the purposes of this article, the application we're adding is Adobe Reader XI. In addition to using computer-specific entries in the database, you can use roles in MDT to group settings together.

When the database is populated, you can use the MDT simulation environment to simulate a deployment. The applications aren't installed, but you can see which applications would be installed if you did a full deployment of the computer.
1. On PC0001, log on as **CONTOSO\\MDT\_BA**.
2. Modify the C:\\MDT\\CustomSettings.ini file to look like below:
