# Hiding Classifications

Content Manager enables you to hide Classifications from individual users, positions, groups or any combination of these. This means that the users cannot see the Classification in any lists, however can still search for records that use that Classification.

To hide Classifications, set the Can Use Access Control on the Classification to individual users, positions, groups or any combination of these. As a result, users that are not listed against the Can Use Access Control cannot see the Classification.

Setting the Classification's Can Use Access Control

   The list of Classifications that you have access to appears.
2. Navigate to or search for and tag the Classifications to hide
3. Right-click a Classification and on the Security and Audit menu, click Security/Access.
   If multiple Classifications are tagged, the Apply To dialogue appears.
   In the Apply To dialogue, select the required option and click OK.

   1. Select Restricted to the following Locations (and any of their members)
   2. Use the Add and Remove buttons to search for and tag Locations to create a list to assign the Can Use Access Control to, making the Classification visible to them, and click OK.
   For multiple Classifications, on the Customise Access / (Multiple) dialogue box:
