# Classify HR data

Assign data classifications to HR application-specific table columns in the Dictionary \[sys\_dictionary\] table. The assigned columns will appear in the “Classified Dictionary Entries” related list for a data classification.

## Before you begin

Role required: data\_classification\_admin

## Procedure

1.  In the Navigator pane, type `sys_dictionary.list`.

2.  Filter by Human Resources-related records.

    In the Table search field, type `sn_hr_core` or in the Package search field, type `human resources`.

3.  Select each of the records that you want to assign to a specific data classification.

4.  After selecting the elements, click **Actions on selected rows** > **Classify**.

5.  In the Assign to data class dialog, select the data classifications you want to assign to your selected dictionary elements, then click **Classify**.

    **Warning:** This will overwrite any existing classifications for the selected dictionary items.

    You can select multiple data classifications as needed.
