The collature is the right to fill a spiritual position as well as to award a benefice or a scholarship .

In Catholic areas, the occupation of clerical positions is generally entitled to the holders of church power, according to canon law the bishops for the lower beneficiaries , in the dioceses the cathedral chapters under papal confirmation, according to Protestant church law formerly the sovereign.

If the conference participant (the collator ) is bound to a presentation by a third party during the award ( collation ), one speaks of collatio non libera , in the opposite case of a collatio libera .

In reformed areas the collature of abolished ecclesiastical rule was transferred to secular power. Parishes newly founded after the Reformation were given secular rights as collators, in the city-state of Zurich these were mayors and councilors.
