Policy Acknowledgement

Policy Management

Create, upload, and manage policy documents for acknowledgment campaigns

What are Policies?

Policies are PDF documents that users must read and acknowledge. They serve as the foundation for acknowledgment campaigns. Each policy can be used in multiple campaigns, and the system tracks policy versions to ensure users acknowledge the correct version.

Document Management

Upload PDF documents, add descriptions, categorize policies, and track versions.

Version Control

Track policy versions and document changes to ensure users acknowledge the correct version.

Viewing Policies

Navigate to Policy AcknowledgementPolicies to see all policies. The table shows policy name, category, version, status, active campaigns, and last updated date.

Editing Policies

Click "Edit" on any policy to modify its name, description, or category. You can also upload a new version of the policy document.

Updating Policy Documents

When you upload a new version of a policy document, the system calculates a new hash. If the policy has changed, users enrolled in active campaigns may need to re-acknowledge the updated version.

Version Tracking

The system automatically tracks policy versions and document hashes. Each acknowledgment is linked to the specific version the user acknowledged, ensuring compliance records reflect the exact policy content.

Best Practices

Add comprehensive descriptions to help users understand the policy

Categorize policies consistently to enable effective filtering and reporting

Document Management

Ensure PDF files are properly formatted and readable before uploading

When updating policies, create new campaigns if major changes require re-acknowledgment

Keep file sizes reasonable (under 50MB) for faster loading and better user experience
