Approving a policy

Before you can publish policies, they must be approved. Policies can only be approved after they have been reviewed. In addition, the policy review by date must be in the past. Policies can be rejected as well. A rejected policy returns to the draft state.

Note:

Only the policies that you have permissions to in the folder selected in the tree pane can be approved.

To approve or reject a policy

  1. In the policies view, click a folder in the tree pane, and do one of the following:

    • Click Approve Policy

    • Click Workflow Tasks > Approve Policy

    • Right-click an object in the tree, then click Approve Policy

  2. In the Approve Policy dialog box, click the check box beside the name of the policies to publish, then click Approve or Reject.
