True or False: The order of rules in a proxy access policy does not matter.

The statement that the order of rules in a proxy access policy matters is true. In Workday’s security framework, the sequence in which rules are defined can significantly impact the overall behavior of the policy. The system evaluates rules in the order they are listed, meaning that earlier rules can override or influence the behavior of later ones. This ordering is critical because, depending on how the rules are structured, it can lead to different outcomes for access grants or security decisions based on user roles or attributes.

For instance, if an access policy grants permissions in one rule but restricts them in another that appears later, the restrictions effectively take precedence if the first rule is evaluated first. Thus, understanding the hierarchy and ordering of these rules is essential for administrators who want to create precise and effective security configurations.
