Classify organizations and persons using classification schemes, which include a class category and a class code. The class category is a broad subject that you can classify entities in, and the code, or classification, is a specific value of the category.

For organizations only, you can use standard industrial classifications, including SIC, NACE, and NAICS 2002 and 2012 codes. See: Classifications Overview.

To manage classifications for the selected organization or person, you can:

• Assign: Assign classifications of the selected category. See: Assigning Classifications.

• Update: You can update only the classification's end date.

• Remove: Assign the classification an end date of today. The removed classification is immediately inactive.

• View History: View and optionally restore previously removed classifications so that they are again active classifications for the organization or person.
