# Enable User Access Policies

User access policies allow you to automate and migrate your users’ assignments to access mechanisms, including managed package licenses, permission sets, and permission set licenses.

1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter User Management Settings, and then select **User Management Settings**.
2. Enable **User Access Policies**. The Enhanced Interface for User Access Policies setting is enabled automatically. We recommend that you keep this setting enabled.
    
    If Salesforce enabled user access policies for you before the Summer ’23 release, you must enable this feature again on the User Management Settings page.

Automate your users’ assignments to permission set licenses, permission sets, permission set groups, package licenses, queues, and public groups. You can create policies that grant or remove access whenever users are created or updated, or in a one-time manual migration.")
