Hi, This is probably a simple thing to do but wanted to get some advice on what would be the best way to do it. I am trying to create a website that features different types of organizations and plan to use a classification system (such as TRBC) to assign what type of organization it is. These are the grouping levels of the classification system. - ECONOMIC SECTOR (e.g. Financials) --BUSINESS SECTOR (e.g. Banking & Investment Services) ---INDUSTRY GROUP (e.g. Banking Services) ----INDUSTRY (e.g. Bank) -----ACTIVITY (e.g. Commercial Banks) So ideally i would like to assign an organization from the ACTIVITY level in the organization levels above. But in different views i would like to list the organization on different levels. E.g. if i assign an organization as Commercial bank, i would like to make it possible to see the same organization on the BUSINESS SECTOR level in the category 'Banking & Investment Services' what would be the best way to store these classifications? so that on the page for the organization i only have to do a Page field to assign to the ACTIVITY level but still have the flexibility to list the organization on other levels? I was thinking of doing a hierarchy of pages, but not sure if that is the best way. Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks Ryan, that works perfectly.

Thanks diogo very much for the info I am going to try it out. I just had one additional question, in the example you gave it would be able to do something like this right? - Organization 1 -- Mr Jon, Title=CEO, Start year=2010, End Year=2012, Note=<some free text about his time here> -- Mr Xico Title=MD, Start year=2011, Note=<some free text> - Organization 2 -- Mr Jon, Title=Board Member, Start year=2009 With the above setup i wanted to have people profile pages that could show the relation in the following way: - Person: Mr Jon -- Organization 1, CEO, 2010-2012 -- Organization 2, Board Member, 2009-current In the above example including the example layout you had given, where would be best to store the additional things related to the relationship between person and organization (i..e. title, start year, end year etc) some of which might be free text fields? and also have an easy way to input them when adding the organization or person.

I am starting to use processwire and really liking it but having one issue which i wanted to ask help for. i am working on a directory type of site that consists of two types of information groups for now: Organizations (different types of organizations in different industries) People (different types of people who are in most cases affiliated with the organizations above) I want to create a relationship between the two types so i can list different people that are (or were) part of the organization and was initially able to do this simply by doing a page (lookup) field which i included in one of the above templates/pages to look up the other group. E.g. lookup people in the organization page. However this was too simple for my needs and i also wanted to be able to put related information (e.g. the person's title at the organization, when they started, when they left etc). So an intermediate type of place would be needed to store this which i was not sure how to do. So it would have to be a many-to-many relationship where more attributes about the relationship can be added. I also wanted an easy way to add more relationships (e.g. from the organization page, i want to be able to add more people that work or worked for the organization and also add more details like the title they have in the organization etc). Similarly also under a person's profile, i want to list the organizations he/she is (or was affiliated with). I know this is possible in PW, if someone could please point a novoice like me in the right direction on how to do this or please let me know if more information is needed. Thanks, Binit
