I can't find Add category button in Setting/Project. I use my company's jira server and i'm an admin.

Hi @hauht 

Welcome to the Community!!

Here's the explanation

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/How-to-create-customize-project-categories-in-JIRA/qaq-p/1790387

You should be Jira Admin in order to create the Project Category

Click on the settings icon --> Projects --> Project Categories --> Create a Project Category

Thanks,
Pramodh

or 

https://yourhostname/secure/admin/projectcategories/ViewProjectCategories!default.jspa as a quick link :)

also hitting the "gg" or "." you can just search for categories

hi @hauht , just being a project admin wont be enough, you will need Site Admin privileges to set this up as @Pramodh M has mentioned. 
Cheers.
