  • Analyze and enrich regulatory alerts by using the get regulatory analysis agentic workflow in the Now Assist panel. This agentic workflow uses web search to enhance alert context and recommends potential impacts on citations, policies, and control objectives to support faster and more accurate compliance decisions.

    Before you begin

    Important:
    This agentic workflow is turned on by default. For more information, see Now Assist skills, agents, and agentic workflows on by default.

    Role required: sn_grc_comp_genai.reg_change_ai_agent_user

    The recommendations for regulatory alert skills are required for recommending impact areas. For more information, see AI-generated recommendations for a regulatory alert skill.

    Agentic workflows and their AI agents use role masking to determine which users can access them. Ones installed with Now Assist applications have specific roles that come included with the application. If you select Users with specific roles for user access, you must configure the security controls to include these roles. For the instructions to change the security controls, see Define security controls for an agentic workflow.

    About this task

    The get regulatory analysis agentic workflow helps regulatory change management professionals quickly understand and act on regulatory alerts in the New or In Progress state by enriching them with external context and identifying impacted areas. Using web search, the workflow adds Enriched Insights to the alert containing additional information such as summaries, fines, due dates, and source references. It then analyzes the enriched alert to generate recommended impacted areas including citations, policies, controls, and control objectives that appear in the Recommendations tab. When you accept these recommendations, they’re automatically added to the impacted areas list.

    Note:

    When you modify an agentic workflow, AI agent, or tool, make sure that you update all instructions accordingly. To modify this workflow, duplicate it and adjust the settings according to your requirements. You can activate the workflow template by making the triggers active and setting the display settings to include the Now Assist panel. For more information, see Duplicate an agentic workflow.

      Note:
      • If you aren’t making this request from a regulatory alert page using the action menu, be prepared to provide the regulatory alert number (sys_id) so that the workflow has the context it needs to fulfill your request. The workflow generates a summary including information on any fines, penalties, important dates, taxonomy, as well as a list of sources for the information.
      • You can save the overview to the Enriched Insights field on the details page of the regulatory alert.
      • You can discard the overview and create your own summary manually.
      Recommend impacted areas In the Now Assist panel, ask the agent to check for recommended impacted areas for a regulatory alert by entering 2.

      Note:
      In the Now Assist panel, the agent receives a notification when the interaction is generated, enabling your users to follow the on-screen instructions and complete the task.
      Important:
      Be sure to check AI-generated summaries and recommendations for accuracy. If no information is available, the generated recommendations display "No recommendations available," "None," "No records to display," and so on.
