5.12.3.2. Classification (By Categories) - (By Countries) - (By Functionality)

[Note]Note

Each catalog has to be classified by category and distribution country. Furthermore there is also the possibility to classify according to functionality.

The classifications By Categories and By Countries make only sense on catalog level (and require the creation of a categories.prj). By Functionality is classified on project level.

All fitting classifications should be selected in order to support an effective search for products.
