Work with child policies

Use the Resource Policies portlet to refine a policy by creating a new child policy or by editing the policy settings of an existing child policy.

You can refine the main policy for a portal resource by creating one or more levels of child policies. Each child policy inherits the property settings of its parent policy unless you choose to break parent-child inheritance by specifying that the child policy override the settings of the parent policy. You can also refine a policy by editing the settings of its child policies.

You can create a new policy only if a rule exists for the parent policy.

After the parent policy has a rule associated with it, you can create a child policy.

The child policies for a parent policy are listed in the table. You can edit, delete, and assign user access to the child policies. You can also select a condition for each child policy. The condition must be fulfilled when the rule of the parent policy is applied.
