# Set up MIF for value calculations

# Set up Multi-Instance Framework for value calculations {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated November 5, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Connect a sub-production instance to a production instance through the Multi-Instance Framework (MIF) so that AI Control Tower can run value calculations across Creator skills.

## Before you begin

You must have access to both the sub-production and the production instances.

Role required: sn_ai_governance.ai_steward

## About this task

Use the Multi-Instance Framework to register a sub-production instance under a production instance so that value calculations run against the correct managed instances.

## Procedure

1. In the sub-production instance, navigate to the Manager Instances \[sn_mif_managed_by_instance\] table and create a record.  
   {#mv-set-up-the-multi-instance-framework-for-value-calculations__table_rnz_wzq_rkc__entry__2}

   | Field | Value |
   |-|-|
   | Application | AI Control Tower Core |
   | Manager Instance | Your production instance |
   [Table 1. Manager Instances record values]

2. Monitor the Approval field until it changes to Auto-Approved.
3. In the production instance, open the AI Control Tower workspace.
4. Go to Configurations.
5. On the Multi-instance setup tab, complete the following substeps to add your sub-production instance.
   1. Select Add instances.
   2. Select your sub-production instance.
   3. Select Save.

{#mv-set-up-the-multi-instance-framework-for-value-calculations__steps_hhb_l2g_lkc}

## Result

The sub-production instance is registered with the production instance. The AI Control Tower can run value calculations across the following data:

* Creator metrics data for all creator skills
* Results obtained from testing Value Templates for AI systems in the sub-production environment.
