Here's the thesuaras entry:

Entry Word: prescribe
Function: verb
Text: 1
Synonyms DICTATE, decree, impose, lay down, ordain, set
2 to fix arbitrarily or authoritatively for the sake of order or of a clear understanding <the Constitution prescribes the conditions under which it may be amended>
Synonyms assign, define, lay down
Related Word establish, fix, set, settle; decide, determine; choose, pick out, select

NONE of those work the way you used it.
