If any dynamic policies were involved in the calculation of the effective policy, they are listed in order of precedence and the value of each setting derived by a dynamic policy decision is displayed in tabular format.

The policy tools are not available in the IBM® Lotus® Domino® Web Administrator client.

To use the Policy Synopsis tool

1. From the IBM® Lotus® Domino® Administrator, click the People & Groups tab.

2. Select the People view, and then select one or more users.

3. From the Tools pane, select Policy Synopsis.

4. Under Select Report Type choose one:

• Summary Only -- (default) to produce a report that lists the hierarchy of policy documents used to derive the effective policy for the specified user.
• Detailed -- to produce a report that lists the hierarchy of policy documents of the effective policy for the specified user, and includes the actual values, and the policy and policy settings documents from which the value was derived. Then select the policy settings documents for which you want details.

• Append to this database -- (default) to add to the list of previous reports.
• Overwrite this database -- to remove reports in the database and write the new reports.

7. Click OK. When the Policy Synopsis Results database (POLCYSYN.NSF) opens, double-click the report to open it.
