Identity Manager 9.1.1 - Company Policies Administration Guide

Regular testing of company policies is managed through schedules. In the default installation of One Identity Manager, the Policy check schedule is assigned to every new company policy. This schedule generates a processing task at regular intervals for the DBQueue Processor for every company policy. You can configure your own schedule to check policies on a cycle which suits your requirements. Ensure that the schedules are assigned to the policies.

To create or edit schedules

In the Manager, select the Company Policies > Basic configuration data > Schedules category.
The result list shows all schedules configured for the QERPolicy table.
Select a schedule in the result list and run the Change main data task.
