# Diagnostic Suites

Diagnostic suites are named collections of [diagnostic definitions](/v1/docs/product-manual-compass-diagnostic-definitions) that group related definitions together for use in [opportunity scans](/v1/docs/product-manual-compass-opportunity-scan). A single definition can belong to any number of suites, and a suite can contain any number of definitions.

## Managing Suites

Suites are managed from the **Suites** tab on the Diagnostics page, alongside the Definitions and Instances tabs.

The suite list shows each suite's name, description, and the number of diagnostics it contains. Click a suite to edit it.

### Suite Fields

- **Name** — A unique name for the suite (e.g., "Cost of Care Opportunity Analysis").
- **Description** — Optional context about the suite's purpose.
- **Diagnostic Definitions** — A checklist of all available definitions, grouped by domain, with a domain-level checkbox for selecting or deselecting a whole domain at once. Only definitions that have at least one session are shown.

A new suite is immediately available for use in opportunity scans.

### Changing or Deleting a Suite

Neither affects scans that already exist, because a scan's plan is a snapshot taken at creation time. Changing which definitions belong to a suite shapes only future scans, and deleting a suite leaves existing scans and diagnostics untouched.

## How Suites Connect to Opportunity Scans

A scan is created against a suite, and creates a diagnostic from every definition in it. The graphical view organizes those definitions by domain. Configuring suites is therefore how you control which definitions a scan covers.

## Access Control

- **Authenticated users** can view the suite list and suite details.
- **Reviewers** can view suites but cannot create, edit, or delete them.
- **Compass Authors** (and above) can create, edit, and delete suites.
