To maintain version control and traceability, a regulation version record is automatically created when you create a regulation record. You can specify the status and the time frame for which the regulation version is effective. Additionally, you can store a summary of revisions made to the regulation version over time and include links to related official documents. To track changes over time, always create a new regulation version record when capturing a regulation amendment.

1. From the App Launcher, find and select **Process Compliance Navigator**.
2. From the navigation bar, select **Regulations**.
3. Click **New**.
4. Enter a name and description for the regulation.
5. Specify details such as regulatory authority, usage type, scope, and regulation manager.
6. Add comments and reference document links, if necessary.
7. Click **Save & Next**.
8. In the Edit Regulation Version window, specify details for the regulation version such as the effective from and to dates, change the summary, and add links to the reference document list.
    
    A regulation version is automatically created in draft status for each regulation record that you create.
9. Save your changes.

The compliance officer creates regulation clauses.
