mutation · in the family Policy value record
What it does
Schedule a policy value for an organization or a location — e.g. a fraud-alert threshold.
Create a PolicyValueRecord — the splice insert (the FxRate recipe); requires the unrestricted capability. The tenant is stamped server-side; the scope anchor (organizationId XOR logicalFacilityId) is tenant-scoped server-side and must be ACTIVE (CONFLICT/REF_STATE otherwise); the key must be registry-defined with the value inside its bounds; an absent startAt = effective NOW (server-stamped); an explicit startAt in the past refuses (policy history is immutable fact); a start falling STRICTLY inside the immediately-preceding window of the (parent × key) sub-schedule auto-TRIMS that predecessor (revisioned + evented, cause policy-value-trim); overlap with ANY OTHER record refuses CONFLICT/POLICY_WINDOW_OVERLAP naming the blockers; the insert transaction rides the ANCHOR construct revision-bump companion (the serializer). Template class A18_POLICY (owner/manager — sensitive config).
What happens
The value takes effect on its start instant; a window starting inside the current one ends that one early (recorded).
Careful
Policy values steer platform behavior — a wrong fraud threshold mutes or floods alerts from the moment it applies.

Returns
PolicyValueRecord PolicyValueRecord! — A PolicyValueRecord — ONE effective-dated value window in the tenant POLICY schedule, resolved LF → org → the registry default NEAREST-ANCESTOR-WITH-VALUE at every read. Keys are REGISTRY-DEFINED (appointment.lead_time_minutes · appointment.max_advance_days · appointment.no_show_window_minutes · appointment.overbook_allowed · fraud.threshold.cash_over_short · fraud.threshold.discount_override_abuse · fraud.threshold.dispute_chargeback · fraud.threshold.override_pattern · fraud.threshold.return_refund_abuse · fraud.threshold.void_no_sale · training.score_visibility — an unknown key refuses naming the roster; v1 = the fraud-alert thresholds, one per signal kind, default 0 on the 0..100 score scale; future keys join by registry row). Doom cancels a not-yet-effective FUTURE record only (CONFLICT/IMMUTABLE otherwise — supersede instead). The window/key/value fields are wire-IMMUTABLE (the edit surface is caption only). ⚠ The catalog ladder's zone rung is a NAMED registry growth — no v1 key legally scopes there.

Errors this call can answer
VALIDATION/INVALID— Something in the request is not valid. (VALIDATION)AUTHN/REQUIRED— Sign in to do this. (AUTHN)AUTHZ/FORBIDDEN— Your role does not allow this action. (AUTHZ)RATE_LIMIT/THROTTLED— Too many requests in a short time. (RATE_LIMIT)NOT_FOUND/*— That record could not be found. (NOT_FOUND)CONFLICT/*— The record’s state, or a change made in the meantime, does not allow this; the codes are on the CONFLICT page. (CONFLICT)VALIDATION/VERSION_REQUIRED— The request did not say which app version it came from. (VALIDATION)
Dry run
Add dryRun: true to the request envelope (extensions.at) to rehearse this call: every check runs, the write is rehearsed against the current records and nothing is stored; the answer is the refusal a real call would give, or the record it would create. Every response to a rehearsal carries dryRun: true, so a rehearsed record is never mistaken for a saved one.
