Hello Mckinzie,
If you are looking to block a URL filtering category but allow a specific URL that belongs to that category, here is how you would do it:
In the following screenshot, social networking category is blocked but facebook.com is allowed.
The order of precedence taken:
I hope I understood your question.
Thanks and regards,

The response is not what I am looking for. It is more toward the data filtering side. The data filtering probably needs to be configured better. As fast fix without turning data filtering completely off for SSN, I was wanting to bypass a specific supplier URL that has data in the form of SSNs but are not.

Hello Mckinzie,
Now that I have understood your concern, as far as creating a URL exception for a data filtering profile is concerned, PAN firewall currently doesn't have the capability to do that. However, what you can can try is create another security rule -- without the data-filtering profile applied to it and a URL filtering profile with that specific URL mentioned in the allow list and place it on top of the existing rule which has the data-filtering profile. In that way, whenever the traffic concerned with that specific URL hits the firewall, it will only match a new rule which doesn't have the data-filtering profile.
OR, the regex pattern itself needs to re-configured to avoid those SSN false-positives.
Let me know what do you think about the workaround.
On another note, if you think this feature would be valuable addition, you can submit a feature request through your account's SE to our development team
Thanks and regards,
Kunal Adak.

Okay thanks. I will modify security rules with a hierarchy of the supplier URL filter on top.
