Applicability: Some PolicyStat sites are included in a network of interconnected PolicyStat sites. Within these interconnected groups, some policies will not be applicable to all the sites in the network. To ensure policies display only for the appropriate sites, PolicyStat can create an Applicability group that defines which sites a policy should appear on.
The Applicability label appears only if the site is a part of an Applicability group. If a site is not connected to any other sites (e.g. - a standalone facility), this label will not appear in the header. - Reference*: References are additional categories or identifiers that can be applied to a policy to better organize them with similar policies.
