# Set a policy value — thresholds and limits

Schedule a policy value for an organization or a location — a fraud-alert threshold, for instance — and see exactly which value applies right now.

Compliance · a play in 2 steps.

## The steps

1. Schedule the value — it takes effect on its start instant. — [createPolicyValueRecord](/reference/policy-value-record/createPolicyValueRecord/)
2. See the value that applies right now — the location’s, else the organization’s, else the platform default. — [resolvePolicyValue](/reference/operating-policy/resolvePolicyValue/)

## The calls

Every operation this use case runs, in the order it first appears, with the request and the response its reference page shows.
