Note This content relates to Legacy Salesforce Archive. Read about the Archive managed package in [Own from Salesforce](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.own_from_salesforce.htm&type=5&language=en_US).

1. On the policy details page, click the **Configuration** tab.
2. Under Schedule, select an option.
    - **Manual Start** leaves the policy run time undetermined. The policy runs only when you start it manually.
    - **Scheduled Start** applies an automatic run schedule that you configure.
3. If you selected Scheduled Start, choose a Run Frequency option.
    - **Run Once (Scheduled Start)** schedules the policy to run once at a future time that you specify.
    - **Run Daily**, **Run Weekly**, **Run Monthly**, or **Run Yearly** schedules the policy to run at regular intervals, beginning at a future time that you specify. For example, select **Run Weekly** and set the start time to January 1 at 12:00 PM. The policy runs for the first time on January 1 at 12:00 PM, and then again every week at the same time.
4. Click **Save**.

You're ready to preview your Archive policy.
