What do classifications act as in Argus Enterprise?

In Argus Enterprise, classifications serve as filters that help users categorize and segregate data according to specific criteria. This functionality allows users to easily navigate and analyze various property types, geographic locations, or property classes, enabling a more organized approach to data management and reporting. By applying classifications as filters, users can quickly hone in on relevant data sets, facilitating efficient analysis and decision-making.

For example, if a user is managing a diverse portfolio of properties, they can classify them based on asset type or investment strategy. This classification acts as a dual-purpose tool; it not only helps in summarizing data but also allows for more granular reporting and analysis.

While classifications do assist in managing processes throughout Argus Enterprise, they are distinct from project identifiers, templates, or default settings, which have specific roles in project organization, standardization, and initial configurations, respectively. Classifications function primarily to streamline access to relevant information and enhance the user experience by filtering data to suit the user’s needs.
