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:
- Navigate to Data Reliability > Manage Policies > Policy Groups.
- Click Create.
- Enter a name for the group (e.g., “Customer Data Quality”).
- (Optional) Add a description to explain its purpose.
- Select the policies you want to include.
- 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:
| Column | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Policy Group Name | The name of the group. Click it to view or edit the group’s details. |
| Created At | When the group was first created. |
| Updated At | The most recent time the group was edited. |
| Linked Policies | The number of policies inside the group. Clicking the number shows which policies are included. |
| Actions | Lets you delete the group. |
Think of Policy Groups like folders of rules. Instead of managing 10 different policies separately, you can manage them as one logical set.
