Adding Classifications

Organizations commonly belong to one or more classifications based on one or
more classification schemes (taxonomies). To establish a classification for an
organization using a taxonomy, the client first locates the taxonomy it wants to
use. It uses the

BusinessQueryManager

to find the taxonomy. The

findClassificationSchemeByName

method takes a set of

FindQualifier

objects as its first argument, but this argument can be null.

// Set classification scheme to NAICS
ClassificationScheme cScheme =

bqm.findClassificationSchemeByName(null,

"ntis-gov:naics:1997");

The client then creates a classification using the classification scheme and a con-
cept (a taxonomy element) within the classification scheme. For example, the
following code sets up a classification for the organization within the NAICS
taxonomy. The second and third arguments of the

createClassification

method are the name and the value of the concept.

// Create and add classification
InternationalString sn =

blcm.createInternationalString(

"All Other Specialty Food Stores"));

String sv = "445299";
Classification classification =

blcm.createClassification(cScheme, sn, sv);

Collection<Classification> classifications =

new ArrayList<Classification>();

classifications.add(classification);
org.addClassifications(classifications);

Services also use classifications, so you can use similar code to add a classifica-
tion to a

Service

object.
