Definicja classification (MM-IM)

An automatic process that takes place during inventory sampling.

To minimize the number of elements to be counted during inventory sampling, the random selection is performed not for the entire sampling area but for individual strata.

To permit the generation of strata, the sampling area is divided into classes, each containing stock management units of "approximately" the same value. This division into classes (classification) is performed automatically when the stock population is formed.
