How do I create a new "set classification" grouping in classification ruler builder?

Hi @user70977,

To create new classifications, you need to go to the Admin section (& be a user with the correct account privileges for this).

Admin > Report Suites > (select the report suite where the evar you are classifying 'lives', or if you are doing multiple Report Suites ctrl + click each one) > Edit Settings > Conversion> Conversion Classifications

From the drop-down, select the eVar you are classifying. Hover over the small box by the eVar name, then 'Add Classification'. Give the classification a name, then save. It'll then be available to use in the Rule Builder. Make sure you plan the name with future proofing in mind, as altering it once set can be a pain.

Hi @user70977 ,

Steps for Creating a New Classification Set (Grouping)

1. Go to Admin > Report Suites

   • Login to Adobe Analytics.

   • Navigate to Admin > Report Suites.

   • Select the Report Suite you want to work with.

2. Click on ‘Edit Settings’ > ‘Classification’ > ‘Classification Hierarchies’

   • Under this section, you’ll find the ability to define classification hierarchies for your variables (eVars, props, etc.).

3. Find and Select the Variable (eVar/prop)

   • For example, if you're classifying eVar20 (Product ID), select that variable.

4. Create a New Classification Set

   • Click Add Classification (or similar, depending on UI).

   • Enter a name for the new classification set — this becomes the grouping name you’re referring to.

   • You can also define multiple columns (e.g., Category, Subcategory, Brand).

5. Save the Classification Set

   • Save changes. Now this classification set becomes available under the “Set Classification” dropdown in the Rule Builder.

6. Go to Classification Rule Builder

   • Navigate to Admin > Classification Rule Builder.

   • Click Add Rule Set.

   • Under “Set Classification”, your newly created classification grouping will now be listed as an option in the drop-down.

Example: 

You want to create a classification on eVar20 for "Campaign Details":

1. Go to eVar20 in the classification settings.

2. Add a classification set:

   • Name: Campaign Details

   • Columns: Campaign Type, Region, Channel

3. Save.

4. Now go to Classification Rule Builder and select eVar20.

5. In "Set Classification", you’ll see Campaign Details available.

Thanks.

Hi @user70977 

You can only add a new “Set Classification” in the Admin area (and you’ll need the right permissions).

Steps -

1. Go to Admin > Report Suites and select your report suite.

2. Edit Settings > Conversion (or Traffic) > Classifications.

3. Select the variable (eVar/prop) you want to classify.

4. Click Add Classification, give it a name, and save.

That new classification will then appear in the Set Classification dropdown in the Rule Builder for that variable.

Hope this works!

What happens when the new classification won't appear in rule builder?
