Create a PaCE policy to determine if changes to a software service or application comply with a set of pre-defined rules.

## Vorbereitungen

Role required: sn_pace.policy_editor

## Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

After you create a PaCE policy, a decision is then made about these changes, and if they are compliant, non-compliant, or compliant-exception according to these pre-defined rules. The policy must be mapped correctly to the relevant object (table and document ID) to invoke the policy when any changes are made to the object.  
Hinweis:  
Policies are only used if they have active mapping records, and if there was a request to validate an object (tables and document IDs) mapped to the policy. For further information, see [Map PaCE policies](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/scKsMe21NghATN5YBbcQgQ "For a policy to be invoked correctly, it must be mapped to an object (table or document ID). The defined mapping settings are automatically verified when the policy is invoked.").

Hinweis: You can edit a policy version only if it is a Draft state. * View version details * Create a new version * Switch from low-code to the code editor * Save the policy as a template * Compare versions * Duplicate policy versions {#pace-create-policy__ul_ypq_xdf_s1c}For more details, see [Manage PaCE policy versions](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/q_mEv941kjfqQpbGLRU23g "PaCE policy versions contain the actual policy script, as well as API Variable and Config Parametercaller and mapping input definitions used for validating policies. Each policy can have many versions, each of which can be easily managed.").

You can perform the following actions:

* Delete a policy that is in an inactive state. See [Delete a PaCE policy](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/wZvsWP2397UQ0Fn24JtHyA "You can delete a PaCE policy at any time. All related versions for that policy are also deleted. However, for auditing reasons you cannot delete policies that were or are currently in use.").
* Duplicate or create a copy of an existing policy.
* Write and test custom PaCE policies. See [How to write and test custom PaCE policies](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/O_TpdjZ4ERK~~yCrtsClJQ "This section provides guidelines on how to write and test PaCE policies.").
