# Assignment Rules Visualization
## Assignment is the mechanism SiteSpect uses to grant users access to an experiment and these can be controlled through a set of inputs.
Audiences
- Determine whether a user is eligible for a campaign
- Evaluated only once, on the first request of a visit
### Counting
- Only report on data from users who experienced the changes (or control where changes were made)
- Counting occurs when the campaign’s variation triggers match
- Which determines whether the user’s visit will be included in the campaign’s reporting
- Once a user is counted in a campaign, all subsequent visits for that user will be included in the campaign’s reporting
### Audience Evaluation & Counting rules apply to new assignments only
- Once a user is assigned to and counted in a campaign, that user will continue to be assigned to that campaign for all subsequent visits.
Below is a visualization of how users can be included or excluded from [assignment](https://doc.sitespect.com/knowledge/assignment?hsLang=en) to experiments through the use of [audiences](https://doc.sitespect.com/knowledge/about-audiences?hsLang=en) and how a users behavior can impact if they are [counted](https://doc.sitespect.com/knowledge/counting-visitors-in-campaigns?hsLang=en)and [reported](https://doc.sitespect.com/knowledge/when-does-sitespect-count-a-user?hsLang=en)against within their assigned campaign.
The full [PDF version of Assignment Rules](https://doc.sitespect.com/hubfs/Assignment%20Rules.pdf?hsLang=en).
**1:** Compare campaign audiences to each user’s attributes
**2:** Audiences determine if a user is eligible to be assigned to a campaign
**3:** Once assigned, track the user’s behavior during the visit. Apply changes (or control) when triggers match.
**4:** At end of visit, determine if a user saw changes and should be counted.
