Change a global adoption policy

An administrator can change a global adoption policy defined for a service type.

The effect of changes to an adoption policy can be seen when the next reconciliation is run. Changing an existing adoption policy does not affect existing accounts of the specific service or service type. Changes do not affect accounts that are already adopted. Only new and existing orphan accounts are adopted based on the new policy.
