Before creating a selection item, you will need to first ensure you have at least one Category and Cost Code. By default we provide an Uncategorized Category/Cost Code, however it is recommended to import standard NAHB/CSI codes or Custom Codes from the Default Settings >> Cost Codes area. 

From within a project, go to "Selections", then click "Add New", then "Add Item".   You will then be able to start adding the details for your selection item.
