3.1 Accessing the Policy Builder

There are two different Policy Builders included in Designer 3.0: one that works with the new policy
features for Identity Manager 3.5 and newer, and an older one that does not support these features.
The Policy Builder version is determined by the version of Identity Manager. To set the version of
Identity Manager:
1 Open a project in Designer.
2 Click the Outline tab, then select the Show Model Outline icon
3 Right-click the server object, then click Properties.
4 Select the appropriate Identity Manager Version.
When the Identity Manager version is set to 3.5 or newer, the new Policy Builder is available. If the
version is set to anything other than 3.5, the old Policy Builder is available.
The Policy Builder can be accessed from the Model Outline view, from the Policy Flow view, or
from a policy set.
