the process of chosing Jews to go to camps was called deportation.
Any time that a person was selected from a group, either to die or to join a work group was called a 'selection'.
The process on arrival at Auschwitz-Birkenau, the one camp that was an extermination centre and a concentration camp, where very often a sizeable proportion of the arrivals (like up to 30%) might be selected for work details, is generally know as 'selection'. But similar 'selections' happened almost daily where at rollcall the Germans would select those who looked less able to work for execution.
All the jews had to go to the death camps...
