# Edit a current or archived PaCE policy version

To edit a Current \(published\) or Archived PaCE policy version, you must create a copy of that version, which can then be updated as required.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_pace.code\_editor

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Policies** > **My Policies**.

    **Note:** To view all policies generated by admin/other users, navigate to **Policies** > **All Policies**.

2.  Click the **Policy name** for the policy that includes the version you want to edit.

3.  In the Policy Details page, click the **Versions** tab.

4.  Click the **Version name** that you want to edit.

    As you can't update a policy version that is Current \(published\) or Archived, the displayed fields are read-only.

5.  Click **Create New Version**.

    In the Version page, define the details of the new version. For further information, see the Create a new version of a policy section. In addition, you can create multiple Draft versions from an Archived or Current \(published\) version and work on them in parallel.
