User-defined rule based categorizer
Portal Search provides a user-defined rule based categorization facility. It allows categorization of documents. When you use a rule based categorizer, you perform the following tasks:
- Select the rule based categorizer:
When you create a search collection, we can specify whether and which type of categorizer should be used for the search collection. If you select the rule based categorizer, we can determine the rules.
- Manage the category tree:
Before you use the categories with documents of a search collection, you manage the category tree. For example, we can add, edit, or delete categories and the related category rules. To manage the category tree, select the Manage Category Tree icon that is shown with the search collection. Manage Search displays that icon only for search collections for which you selected a user defined rule based categorizer during creation.
- Associating categories with content sources:
After you have managed the category tree, we can associate categories with content sources in the collection. If you selected the rule based categorizer when creating the search collection, Manage Search displays the Destination Categories tab when you create or edit a content source of that collection. When you associate categories with a content source, the documents that arrive from that content source are inserted to the categories that you selected, depending on whether they pass the category filters. A category which is associated with a content source is also called a destination category.
