Users with the queue_admin role can create or modify queue policies.

To create or modify a work queue policy:

  2. Navigate to the category where you want to either locate a new policy or edit an existing one.

  3. Do one of the following:

    • To create a new policy, select File>New>Work Queue Policy.

    • To edit an existing policy, select the policy and then select File>Edit.

  4. Enter the following:

    • Threshold

      This is the number of tasks at which notifications are sent to the queue managers group letting the managers know the number of tasks in the queue is high. The queue managers group is specified in the queue definition.

    • Max Priority

      When a task in the work queue reaches this level, notifications are sent to the queue managers group letting the managers know there is an important task not being handled.

    • Initial Priority

      This is the level of importance that is assigned to a newly created task when the work queue uses this policy.

    • Increment Priority

      This is a value by which to increment the priority level of tasks that are still in the queue each time the dm_QmPriorityAging job is run.

    • Percent Quality Check

      The percent used to randomly decide if the work item must go through testing or verification.

  5. Click Finish.
