Show full answer Show less ## Important Upgrade Information * Workflow Studio is installed automatically on your instance starting with Xanadu but requires manual updates from the ServiceNow Store to access new features. * From Washington DC Patch 3 onwards, updating Workflow Studio also updates all related dependencies automatically, and individual application dependencies can no longer be updated separately. * There are no updates for Decision tables in Workflow Studio in the Yokohama, Zurich, or Australia releases beyond those introduced in Xanadu. ## New Features Introduced in Xanadu * **Create decision tables inline in flows and subflows:** Quickly add decision logic using flow or subflow inputs directly within Workflow Studio. * **Decision tables in Playbooks:** Manage complex business logic by adding decision tables with the "Make a Decision - First Match" activity, using Playbook inputs. * **Rank and reorder decision table rows:** Control the evaluation order of decision rules by typing new rank values or dragging rows, improving decision logic accuracy. ## Changes * **UI theme updates:** Decision table interfaces now align with standard ServiceNow AI Platform themes for a consistent look and feel. * **Improved usability:** Large decision tables support scrolling within the table while keeping headers visible, facilitating easier navigation and editing. ## Other Considerations * **Localization:** The Localization Framework is integrated; however, editing decision tables in Excel does not support localization and should not be used in non-English instances. * **No removals or deprecations:** Between Xanadu and Australia, no features or functionalities of Decision tables in Workflow Studio have been removed or deprecated. * **No changes noted:** No updates were recorded for activation processes, additional requirements, browser requirements, accessibility, or localization beyond those specified. ## Practical Implications for ServiceNow Customers By upgrading to Australia with these considerations, customers can enhance their automation workflows by leveraging inline decision table creation and ordering, and integrating complex decision logic in Playbooks. The UI and usability improvements streamline working with large decision tables. Understanding the upgrade dependencies and localization limitations ensures a smooth transition and optimal use of Decision tables in Workflow Studio.
