Did you look into the entries field type? It should allow you to select items from your categories collection.

My categories not set as a collection, it is outside the collection in separate menu, should i make it as collection ?

I'm not sure what you mean - can you explain your setup some more?

I have created new resource using runway addon, a new list has been created in the sidebar for CP call products and created another one call orders, these lists not under the collection it is globals and assests, so as i try to understand from you , you mesn that i should put it under the collection menu to add entries ?

[ryanmitchell]

No, if you are using Runway then use the BelongsTo field type it provides to select your categories.
