Create groups so that the underlying rules of this group can classify the table records based on the conditions. The rules can be used to select any field in the corresponding table.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_vul.manage_classification_rule

## Procedure

1. Navigate to the System Properties table.
2. In the sn_sec_cmn.classificationTables system property, add the name of the table for which you want to create the classification group.
3. Create a new business rule by adding the following code snippet to the business rule on the table defined in the group:  
   `var classificationCalc = new sn_vul.VulnerabilityCalculator(current,true,false,'sn_vul_classification_group','sn_vul_classification_rule'); classificationCalc.calculate();`  
   Note:  
   Business rules are provided to execute the classification during ingestion for the Discovered items and Vulnerability Entry tables. For other tables, to have the classification rules on ingestion, you must add the business rules.
4. Navigate to AllVulnerability ResponseAdministrationClassification Rules.
5. On the Classification Groups context menu, click New.
6. On the form, fill in the fields.
