Subtypes and Classification

Oracle LSH uses classifications to help users find objects through searching and browsing. You assign classificationhierarchy levels to subtypes to determine the classification hierarchy levels to which an object of that subtype can and must be assigned. For example, you can require that Financial Outputs be classified to the Fiscal Year > Quarter > Month hierarchy but Clinical Outputs be classified to the Project > Study > Site hierarchy.

See Designing a Classification System for Searching and Browsing and specifically Assigning Classification Levels to Object Subtypes for further information.
