Communication policy is basically for creating agreements and announcing the information or broadcast message that is applied to users and OUs.
Agreement Policy
To create a new policy, Navigate to Home -- Policies --Agreement, Click on Add option & you implement the new policy.
Title: Name your policy to identify it later when you want to make changes quickly.
Description: Short description for helping understand the policy if more than one admin is managing the account
Enabled: For some reason, if you want the policy to be disable for some time and re-enable it, you can check/uncheck “Enabled” option as shown above.
Valid Always: You can decide the validity of the policy with valid Always button. Toggling this you can say whether you want a policy for a stipulated time or a policy which is always applied
Valid From and Valid To: If Valid Always is off, then you will have to provide the date range for which the policy needs to be applied. This way admin need not manually turn off the policy.
Message: Under this section , you can display the agreement input / Message and it will appear on the screen once user log In to their account's
Buttons: By default, the buttons on the message are named as ‘Next’ and ‘Cancel’. Next button enables the user to proceed, and Cancel does not allow him to proceed. He will be logged out if he clicks cancel. Hence admin can change the text of these buttons as per the message and policy, which would make sense to the end user
You can assign values to customize button names.eg. "Next" to "I Agree" and "Cancel" to "Sign , Use hide button to hide the Cancel button
You can implement this policy on specific user’s or OU’s or entire domain ( all User)
Note: If IT admin have some compliance like personal work and other things regarding domain that should be mentioned in agreement and if user agree those terms and condition then he will be able to proceed to login unless and until user is not accept these terms, he is not able to login. If the user accepts those terms, then those terms never ask again for that user.
