Quick question Andy. I see the blue exclamation mark when you blocked the inheritance of the Default Domain Policy under the Sales GP Policy. But why does the blue exclamation mark not go away when you enforce it? It looks like it's still blocked unless you click into it and see that it's been enforced

@AndyMaloneMVP 2 жыл бұрын

It’s because the default domain policy was enforced. Water falls downwards.

It isn't the policy that was blocked, you've blocked *an OU* from inheriting from anything above it.
