Classifications are the potential results that a client can achieve when assessed for a factor. Classifications are used to define a scale that measures a client's position pertaining to the factors being assessed. For example, the classifications configured for a Need category may include 'At Risk', 'In Crisis', 'Stable', and 'Thriving'. When a client is assessed across a number of factors, the classifications defined by the administrator for the category of factors being assessed represent the results of the assessment.
Classification configuration allows the administrator to define individual classifications and associate them with categories. When a classification is associated with a category, it automatically applies to all factors defined for the selected category.
