You can find high command generals by having them sort the generals by command stars.
You can find high income provinces by sorting your provinces by income.
But if I want to find that perfect 9 star governor for Antioch, I am having to go through every single province. And even then it doesn't work and (if Turkish), I have to make him undergo the indignity of becoming a eunuch
Anyways, just a grumble, but it'd be nice if you could see unassigned soldiers and their acumen, and a list of governors.
The governor you choose can give your province a +90 percent bonus (more if he has good virtues like steward/trade, etc). I wish I could find the right guy easier.

Usually, if you set auto-assign titles, etc. to on, the computer will automatically grant provincial governonships to the most worthy of your non-royal generals.
But, yes, it would be nice to have a parchment option listing all your current general ranked according to acumen or dread or whatnot.

Respectfully, the auto-assign title option is the worse one possible and is a bad recommendation; for a long time I've been taking refuge to this one and not paying enough attention to the generals the AI was assigning as governors, and I had to learn the hard way that the AI is doing a very poor job with this task.
I have to agree with voigtkampf.
I've always assigned titles myself, but recently switched to 'auto-assign titles' in order to concentrate on battles and speed up my campaign. But i soon changed it back when I found that I had a governor that I wouldn't even put in charge of Friesland looking after Venice. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-stunned.gif

Yup, auto assinging titles is the worst thing you can do, better assign the titles yourself, and if you don't have reasonable acumen candidates, leave the provinces without a governor. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
I always assign the governorships myself. I also have a rule I normally adhere to: I don't assign a governorship to any general with less than a 4 in acumen.
The only exception I make to this is those abysmally low income provinces like Sinai, where I want at least 4 dread to keep loyalty up.
