# Classification Numbering page

Each record created in a Classification plan must have a unique number.

You can use an automatic variable record numbering pattern to provide unique numbers for your records.

The Classification plan numbering system uses placeholders to represent variable numbers, letters or dates in the Classification plan.

See Classification numbering characters.

The Numbering page displays the compressed and expanded (uncompressed) versions of the full identifying number of the Classification as well as the current level's portion of the number.

This is the full number that will be used as the record number when a new record is created with this Classification.
