# Create or edit Configuration Compliance remediation task rules

You can create rules to automatically group test results based on filter conditions. These rules automatically group test results as they are imported. Use the filter to limit the test results grouped by this rule, such as selecting all test results with exploits.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_vulc.admin

## About this task

The base system ships with one remediation task rule, **Assignment group, Test**, which groups test results by assignment group \(pre-populated from **Assignment Rules**\) and the test result **Test** field. This rule can be modified using filter conditions and group keys. Group keys are columns in the test results table. Select up to six keys to indicate what values should be used to group the test results.

Starting with version 14.7 of Configuration Compliance, the **Assignment group, Test** remediation task rule is deactivated for new implementations.

**Note:** New or updated rules are automatically evaluated on the next import or manually using the **Reapply** button on the Remediation Task Rule form.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Configuration Compliance** > **Administration** > **Remediation Task Rules**.

2.  Open the **Assignment group, Test** rule or click **New**.
