In create record, sysevent table will not be available outside Global scope.
In case you still want to utilize, I would suggest to create a custom action and place inputs for parameters and just use eventQueue() to fire the event.
sysevent table will not be available outside Global scope. it is conscious decision by ServiceNow team.

since you are in GRC scope you cannot call event table in Create Record
you can use custom action
what didn't work in that custom action? what debugging have you done so far?
