Pause all the Security Token's requirements. This means that all transfers will be allowed until requirements are unpaused

**`note`** this method is of type [ProcedureMethod](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/interfaces/proceduremethod.md), which means you can call `pause.checkAuthorization` on it to see whether the Current Account has the required permissions to run it

Detele all the current requirements for the Security Token.

**`note`** this method is of type [ProcedureMethod](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/interfaces/proceduremethod.md), which means you can call `reset.checkAuthorization` on it to see whether the Current Account has the required permissions to run it

**Parameters:**

| Name    | Type                                                                             |

### set

▸ **set**(`args`: [SetAssetRequirementsParams](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/interfaces/setassetrequirementsparams.md), `opts?`: [ProcedureOpts](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/interfaces/procedureopts.md)): *Promise‹*[*TransactionQueue*](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/classes/transactionqueue.md)*‹*[*SecurityToken*](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/classes/securitytoken.md)*››*

Configure asset compliance requirements for the Security Token. This operation will replace all existing requirements with a new requirement set

This requires two transactions

**`example`** Say A, B, C, D and E are requirements and we arrange them as `[[A, B], [C, D], [E]]`. For a transfer to succeed, it must either comply with A AND B, C AND D, OR E.

**`note`** this method is of type [ProcedureMethod](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/interfaces/proceduremethod.md), which means you can call `set.checkAuthorization` on it to see whether the Current Account has the required permissions to run it

**Parameters:**

| Name    | Type                                                                                                       |

### unpause

▸ **unpause**(`args`: void, `opts?`: [ProcedureOpts](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/interfaces/procedureopts.md)): *Promise‹*[*TransactionQueue*](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/classes/transactionqueue.md)*‹*[*SecurityToken*](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/classes/securitytoken.md)*››*

Un-pause all the Security Token's current requirements

**`note`** this method is of type [ProcedureMethod](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/interfaces/proceduremethod.md), which means you can call `unpause.checkAuthorization` on it to see whether the Current Account has the required permissions to run it

**Parameters:**

| Name    | Type                                                                             |
