All `hard-mandatory` must pass in order for the run to continue to the "Confirm & Apply" state. All `soft-mandatory` policies must pass or be overridden for the run to continue to the "Confirm & Apply" state.

-> **Note:** If the policy set option “This policy set can be overridden in the event of mandatory failures” is enabled, users with the appropriate permissions (such as admins or team owners) can override any failed policy checks in that set, including those marked as `hard-mandatory`. This override setting takes precedence over the individual policy’s enforcement level.

If any `soft-mandatory` policies fail and no `hard-mandatory` policies fail, users with [permission to override policies](/enterprise/users-teams-organizations/permissions#manage-policy-overrides) will be presented with an **Override & Continue** button in the run in the Terraform Cloud workspace. This allows them to override the failed `soft-mandatory` policy checks and continue the execution of the run. This will not have any impact on future runs.

These users can also override `soft-mandatory` policies by running the `terraform apply` command and then entering "override" when prompted to override failed `soft-mandatory` policies for the run.
