  A waiting period is a feature of SAP FS-PM Policy Management that allows users to set a specific amount of time before a policy can be applied. This period can be used to ensure that all necessary information is collected and reviewed before the policy is applied. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To set a waiting period, users must first create a policy in the FS-PM Policy Management system. Once the policy is created, users can set the waiting period by selecting the “Waiting Period” option from the policy settings menu. From there, users can specify the length of time before the policy will be applied.
