The portfolio planning workspace displays projects only from the "sn_align_core_project" table but the project workspace is made to handle projects from the "pm_project" table. Could someone please explain the difference between these two tables?
@AndersBGS @Rajesh_Singh @Rishav Kumar Any suggestions here, please? Thank you!
Regards,
Pranav Thanedar

@Pranav_Thanedar The pm_project table is a standard table for managing general project management tasks, while the sn_align_core_project table is used for more specialized or contextual project management within certain ServiceNow applications. The specific features and use cases can vary depending on the application and customization in your instance.

pm_project Table:
- Purpose: This table is part of the Project Management application in ServiceNow. It is used to store information related to projects managed within the Project Management module.
- Key Fields: It typically includes fields such as project name, description, start and end dates, project status, and other project-related details.
- Functionality: It helps in managing and tracking projects, including their tasks, milestones, and overall progress. This table integrates with other project management features like project tasks, project templates, and resources.
sn_align_core_project Table:
- Purpose: This table is associated with the Align application, which is used for aligning and managing strategic initiatives and projects within the organization. It’s part of the Align Core module, which is a separate application that focuses on strategic alignment.
- Key Fields: It might include fields specific to strategic alignment, such as alignment with business objectives, strategic goals, or portfolio management details.
- Functionality: It helps in aligning projects with broader business strategies and objectives, allowing for better strategic management and tracking of project alignment with organizational goals.
In summary, while the pm_project table is focused on the operational aspects of project management, the sn_align_core_project table is more about aligning projects with strategic business objectives.

Also Out of Box, internally both the tables are synced. If you are using Servicenow Projects(pm_project), the same project is available in Portfolio/Strategic Planning workspace as sn_align_core_project and its roadmappable, aligned with goals.

When I create a Project in the Project table, how do I get that Project to show in the sn_align_core_project table?
