For each mapping there are two separate lists of classification mappings. The lists display and allow the user to control how parameter classification mappings function.

The Countable Location Level and Associated Parameters list contains all level, zone, document and explicit or countable parameter classification mappings. All objects must match the rule defined by the classification mappings that appear in this list.

The Combination of Parameters list contains a list of parameter classification mappings for which all object must match at least one of the classifications defined.

The first parameter that is added to a given mapping is always added into the Combination of Parameters list. For any single parameter classification mapping all objects still need to contain the specified BIM data. If the parameter is set as countable it is automatically moved to the Countable Location Level and Associate Parameters List.

When additional parameter classification mappings are added the user is allowed to select Parameter-AND or Parameter-OR.

The Parameter - OR option places the newly created parameter classification mapping into the Combination of Parameters list.

The Parameter - AND option places the newly create parameter classification maping into the Countable Location Level and Associated Parameters list

The Combination of Parameters list allows the user to specify multiple inclusive classifications to filter objects. If a given object meets the criterium of the mapping if it contains the BIM data values that are specified in any of the classifications.

The image below shows two parameter classification mappings using the category parameter. In this example both walls and structural columns are assigned to tasks with the keyword ‘Cols and Walls'.

In some cases an additional non countable parameter classification mapping needs to be added where objects need to meet its criterium. For example, we could expand on the previous mapping to include a workset that all the columns and walls need to be part of. This parameter classification mapping needs to be added to the Countable Location Level and Associated Parameters list.

The Parameter - AND option is used to create a parameter classification mapping that specifies BIM data that all objects need to contain.

In the above example all structural columns and walls in the structure workset are assigned to tasks with the ‘Cols and Walls’ keyword
