Policy Groups

In ADOC, a Policy Group is a way to organize multiple policies together. Instead of managing individual rules one by one, you can bundle them into groups that reflect a project, a data domain, or a business goal. For example:

• A Customer Data Group might include rules for email validity, address completeness, and duplicate checks.

• A Finance Data Group could hold rules for reconciliation, daily freshness, and anomaly detection.

This makes it easier to apply, monitor, and maintain related policies as a set.

Why Use Policy Groups?

• Organization: Keep policies structured by team, domain, or use case.

• Efficiency: Manage and review multiple rules at once.

• Clarity: Business users can quickly see which rules apply to which area of the business.

Creating a Policy Group

To create a new Policy Group:

1. Navigate to Governance -> Manage Policies -> Policy Groups.

2. Click Create.

3. Enter a name for the group (e.g., “Customer Data Quality”).

4. (Optional) Add a description to explain its purpose.

5. Select the policies you want to include.

6. Click Create.

Once created, the group will appear in the Policy Groups table.

Understanding the Policy Groups Table

The table gives you a quick view of all existing groups:

Think of Policy Groups like folders of rules. Instead of managing 10 different policies separately, you can manage them as one logical set.
