Criteria
Overview
The Criteria taxonomy page is where you manage all Criterion records in Birdie Settings.
Criteria are one of the core taxonomy types in Birdie. They define the rules used to evaluate service quality in FI workflows.
This page centralizes the operational work of managing Criteria as taxonomy items. Use it to review your catalog, create new Criteria, edit existing ones, and organize them into collections.
If you want the FI model behind Criteria, see Criteria and Manual Evaluation.

Viewing and filtering
The main tab shows the full criteria catalog as a list.
Each row can include:
Criterion
Criterion level
Weight
Critical status
Use the controls at the top of the page to narrow the list:
Search — find criteria by name
Select area — show criteria related to one Area
Level — filter by General or Specific
Group by collection — switch between collection grouping and reason grouping
Click any criterion to open its details.
Creating New Data
Click New criterion to create a new Criterion.
When creating a new Criterion:
Define the rule being evaluated.
Give it a clear and objective name and description to calibrate.

Calibrate the pending criterion.

Save it to add it to the catalog.
Use names that describe observable agent behavior.
Modifying Existing Data
Removing Data
Collections Tab
The second tab groups Criteria by Criteria collection.
This view helps teams organize Criteria by theme, process, behavior, or quality framework.
Use collections when you need to:
keep criteria grouped by topic
simplify FI administration
make workspace organization easier
Managing collections
Use collections to group related criteria under the same operational theme.
Create a collection
Click + Add collection
Enter the collection name
Confirm with the check icon

Rename a collection
Hover over the collection
Click the pencil icon
Save the new name

Delete a collection
Hover over the collection
Click the trash icon
Confirm the removal

Manual criteria and scoring
Mark Manual? when a criterion must be reviewed by a person
Manual criteria appear in Manual Evaluation when they are linked to a Reason
Weight contributes to the Quality Score at Workspace, Area, Reason, and Agent levels
Critical criteria do not use weight and fail the interaction when not met
Pending criteria
If you see the alert You have Criteria that need your attention, open the pending list to review or finish calibration before the criteria can be used normally.
Best Practices
Write Criteria as objective evaluation rules.
Keep one rule per Criterion.
Avoid ambiguous or subjective names.
Group related Criteria into collections for easier maintenance.
