# Ignore Errors During Policy Execution

Allow a privacy policy to ignore object processing errors. When errors are ignored, the job session proceeds to the next object on the policy instead of stopping completely. This option is useful if validations or business logic produce errors that you know are safe to ignore.

Warning Ignoring object processing errors can potentially lead to accidental data loss or modification. For example, if your logic assumes that a record has been updated but then includes it in a later step, the record can be processed incorrectly. Consider the full impact of your policy before bypassing errors.

Before you begin: In Setup, on the Privacy Policy Settings page, turn on **Allow policy configurations that ignore job errors and bypass automations**.

To ignore all object processing errors with a particular policy, click **Edit** on the policy details page, and then select **Ignore processing errors on all objects**.

To ignore errors for selected policy objects:

1. Add or edit an object.
2. On the Add an Object page, select **Ignore processing errors on this object**.
3. Complete the remaining object configuration steps and save your changes.
