# Parametric Cardinal Placement

You can create cardinal placement rules for parametric queries.

In a parametric query, IDOL Server returns a list of all possible values for a field. For example, if documents in IDOL Server contain a `model` field, a parametric query for `model` returns all the possible values of this field that occur in documents. Users can refine their queries by selecting one of the available models.
