The algorithm used to understand which policy is currently set in the system (for a particular context and class of object) is as follows:

• If auto-numbering is set in Rules, then the policy is auto-numbering.

• If custom behavior is implemented in Rules, then the policy is custom.

• If either of auto-numbering or custom behavior is not set and the parameter or attribute preferences are set in the WindchillPreference Management utility, then policy is parameter-driven.

• Otherwise, the policy is name-driven.
