![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Enable publishing of grant programs and authorized representative activities.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin  
Note:  
Verify your application scope is set to Global by selecting the application picker () in the Unified Navigation bar and selecting Application ScopeGlobal.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllScripted Extension PointsScripted Extension Points.
2. In the API name column, search for `sn_svc_appl_pgm_mg.PublishGrantProgram` and select the record.
3. Under Related Links, select Create Implementation.  
   The system creates and registers a new Script Include as an extension point instance.

4. In the dropdown next to Accessible from field, select All application scopes.
5. Select Update.
6. Verify the implementation by publishing a grant program and confirming it moves to the Accepting Applications state.  
   If you're creating a custom playbook, perform these additional steps to make sure you reference the intended playbook definition:
   1. Open the intended playbook definition record and copy its `sys_id` from the record header menu or the record URL.
   2. On the extension point implementation, set the process_definition field to that `sys_id`.  
      If the field is not on the form, add it by using form layout, or edit it from the record list.
   3. Select Update.
   4. Reopen the proposal and confirm the activity now appears.  
      The activity list on a proposal is resolved from the playbook definition referenced in `process_definition`. If it points to a different playbook, such as the base-system proposal playbook,
      activities that exist only in the intended playbook don't display.

## Result

The publishing extension point is implemented. Grant programs and authorized representative activities can now be published. Publishing a grant program moves it to the Accepting Applications state and makes it available to
contacts for proposals.
