Is it possible to create custom rules for classification?

The most "difficult" and tedious part is to prepare the data.
But I found a way ...
This is an example:

About your question: What I have found is that there is an IFC Rules folder in the "Defaults" folder of the ArchiCAD application folder. And then there is an IFC Rules folder in the "Graphisoft" folder of your User Profile folder.
When ARCHICAD starts, it checks whether the User Profile's IFC Rules folder contains the same files as the Defaults folder. If not, it will copy the missing XML files from the Defaults folder to the User Profile's IFC Rules folder.
What I found is that if an XML file exists in the User Profile's IFC Rules folder, the one existing in the Default folder will not overwrite it.
So I think that the Apply Predefined Rule Dialog reads the file from the User folder, not the Defaults folder.
However, you may have to restart ARCHICAD for it to read changes made in the XML file. So if ARCHICAD is open, and you modify the XML, you should quit then restart ARCHICAD. For me that worked and it read the changes in the XML file.

Could it be that you modified a file in another folder?

Yes. I was modifying the xml file in the program files folder.

If Defaults\IFC Rules folder contains an XML file, and the same XML file exists in the User\Graphisoft\IFC Rules folder, ARCHICAD will not overwrite the latter file if you modify the file with the same name in the Defaults folder.
The only thing it does is if an XML file does not exist in the User folder, it will copy it there from the Defaults folder. But if it already exists in the User folder, it does not touch it.

Seems odd this is not part of the US / Canada template.

48 divisions implemented.
At the moment the classifications does not distinguish the type so every numbers can be associated to every item in the model.
Can I share it? Moderators, please advice about it.
I'm investigating the possibility, applying the rule, to add a IFC property (example a specification text)
