Automated Scripted Factor Schedule: Can daily updates trigger re-calculation for "Assessed" Risk?

[sibayanchak]

Hi Community,

I am working with Advanced Risk Assessments and using Scripted Automated Factors for Control Assessments. I have a question regarding the "Schedule" option (e.g., Daily/Weekly) on the automated factor configuration:

If a Risk has already reached the "Assessed" or "Completed" state, will the daily schedule of a scripted factor still trigger and update the factor values if the underlying data changes?

Example Scenario:

• A control is initially marked as "Effective" during an assessment.
• The assessment moves to a "Completed" state, and the Residual Risk is calculated.
• A week later, the control becomes "Ineffective" in the system. 

Will the Daily Schedule on the automated factor automatically re-run the script, update the factor response, and subsequently trigger a re-calculation of the Residual Risk score on that existing completed record? Or is the schedule only applicable for active assessments/new assessment generation?

I’m trying to understand if ServiceNow supports this "dynamic" point-in-time update for finished assessments or if a new assessment must be initiated to reflect these changes.

Thanks in advance for your insights!
