Hi,
Are there any concerns or precautionary steps to be taken before creating a new entity type in an established GRC setup?
If yes, what are they?
If no, can this be done directly in a production environment or should it go through a user story development lifecycle?

Before creating a new entity type in ServiceNow GRC Evaluate dependencies with existing risks, controls, and policies, and assess how the new entity type will fit into the GRC framework.
Always follow a structured user story development lifecycle process . Avoid making direct changes in production.

Hi @Kirthika D ,
When you say precautionary steps, i think of cmdb tables which i am going to use to create entity type filter conditions, where i will check if the data is correct, we know the sources for the data, there is no statle data.
We should not create directly from Prod ( not Recommended). Please follow user story development lifecycle , where you move from Dev>test>Prod.
