## Prioritizing classification policies

Box enables you to prioritize which policies Box executes when conflicts occur among policies. The smaller the Priority value is, the higher the priority.

So, if conditions for several policies are met for the same file, Box applies the policy whose Priority value is the smallest.  For example, Box executes a conflicting policy whose Priority is 2 and does not execute a conflicting policy whose Priority is 3.

**To prioritize your security classification policies:**

1. In the admin Console's left sidebar, click **Classification**.
2. In the top of the window, click **Classification Policies**.  Box displays a list of your classification policies.  The **Priority** column lists, from top to bottom, the priorities in which Box executes the policies.
3. In the top-right corner of the window, click **Change Priority Order**.
4. Hover on a policy name to highlight it.
5. Click and hold down the mouse button, then drag the policy name up or down the list to the desired position.
6. In the top-right corner, click **Save**.
7. In the **Confirm Priority Order Change** window, click **Confirm**.

**Note**: After a new priority order takes effect, Box does not re-classify classified files.
