1. On the policy details page, click **Edit**.
2. Under Run Frequency, select an interval.
    - **Run Once (Manual Start)** leaves the policy run time undetermined. The policy runs only when you start it manually.
    - **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.
3. Click **Save**.

You’re ready to preview your Data Management Policy.
