__**Policies Screen**__

Policies are an ideal way to create a collection of functionality of a same type. The policy then can be pushed out to the device(s) with one click. There are different kinds of policy types ranging from location, telephony to Application management. Commands of a certain type can only be added to a policy of that type. A policy can be pushed out to both a single device or a group.


A policy is rolled back by applying the anti-policy. NB. Please note that once a policy has been applied to any device, that policy can no longer be amended. It ould have to be deleted and recreated with the further functionality.


Below is the policy screen.

Once the correct details have been entered, click Save Changes and OK in the pop up that appears. The system user can click return To policies List to view the created policy.


**__Edit/Remove policy__**

The policy may be edited or removed before it has been rolled out to any device by clicking the edit link. Please note the newly created policy does not have an Apply Policy button yet; This is due to it being an empty policy.
