What is the difference between risk and sn_risk_risk tables?

[arielgritti]

Hi community,

I saw that using the Risk Register the "risk" is created in the "sn_risk_risk" table.

If you create a risk from SPM (project) the "risk" is created in the risk table.

What is the difference? How those tables/processes are related?

Thanks,

Hi @arielgritti ,

I have provided detailed explaination on the same ask here : https://www.servicenow.com/community/developer-forum/what-is-difference-between-grc-risks-sn-risk-ri...

Thanks @Community Alums 
Really useful information in your post.
I'm still wondering how the sn_risk_risk and risk tables can be part of the same implementation.
If we want to use the "Risk Register" OOTB funcionality, the "risks" are created in the "sn_risk_risk" table. If somebody from SPM create a project's risk, it's created in the risk table. Two different tables to track/manage risks, that is exactly my doubt here.

@arielgritti ,

Let's understand this way:

Firsly "sn_risk_risk"  is a scoped app table which comes with IRM.

And project's risks are not scoped for IRM, so it should sit somewhere which is common to other risks, Hence, we use Risk Table not  "sn_risk_risk" .

Thanks Sandeep,

Is posible to manage Project's risk under the umbrella of IRM? We want to collect&manage all the risk using IRM: doesn't matter from where they are coming. Is that an option?
