Class Rules
An item will go through a list of class rules to determine if it should have a class applied. An item will go through the class rules to decide what classes should be applied. An item could have any number of classes applied and some will have no classes.
Class rules can be created for a number of variables using a RegEx query.
Enabling Class Rules
Items cannot be classified using class rules unless they are enabled. You can create and manage class rules while this is disabled.
Use the Enable/Disable Class Rules toggle to turn these on or off.
New Class Rules
You can create rules based on a number of variables including the name, file extension and field values.
Within the relevant Classification then select the Class Rules tab.
Select Add Class Rule.
Applied Class: Select the class this rule will apply to from the dropdown list.
If you can't find the class you want, check you have the correct classification selected and the class exists in the classes tab.
Rules
There is no limit to the number of rules you can create. You could have a single rule in one variable, multiple rules for one variable or multiple rules across multiple variables. All of the rules applied to a class must be met for an item to have that class applied.

Rule Order
It's important to check the order of your rules. The order of your rules determines the order they are run.
An item may pass the rules of multiple classes in one classification. But, once an item has a class assigned the remaining rules in that classification are skipped. The item will then move onto the next classification and it's rules.
Reordering Classifications
Drag and reorder the cards in your Class Rules list to change the priority.
