Hello Kiko,
Catalogation is not an option.
I think there could be be a few possibilities depending on the context. I agree with Suzi, I would say cataloging, but an example in Spanish would be more useful. Depending on context, you could also see variations like listing, categorizing, classification, documenting.
I normally use linguee.es or spanishdict.com to find examples of usage. They pull examples of usage from translations on the web which can be very helpful.
Resources with translated examples:

In most cases, you would just use the word "cataloging."
For example: "She spent many weeks cataloging the collection of documents."
Can you give an example of how you wanted to use this word? It might help to answer your question.
