| Release | Release notes |
|-|-|
| Australia | [Financials grid for demands in Next Experience for Demand Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=managing-financials-dw&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Next Experience for Demand Management includes a Financials grid for demand records. This grid shows the demand's cost plans, benefit plans, and baselines. From this grid, users can: * Add cost plans, benefit plans, and expense lines scoped to the demand. * Create and compare baselines for financial data on the demand. * Filter by time scope and personalize the grid columns. [Monitor and track demands](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=c_demand_dashboards&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Next Experience for Demand Management includes a Dashboard menu for demand records. The dashboard opens by default and is organized into three tabs: * Overview * Financials * Data Quality Filter dashboard data by department, business unit, portfolio, program, or demand manager. Select a widget, or select View all on a list widget, to open the underlying records with the same filters applied. [Identify similar demands using AI in Next Experience for Demand Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=identify-similar-demand-records&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Detect similar existing demand records when creating or editing a demand using the identify similar records skill. This skill compares the Name, Description, and Business Case fields for contextual similarity. [RIDAC](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=spw-ridac-landing&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : * Create and associate risks, issues, decisions, actions, and changes (RIDAC) with all planning items, goals, and EAP (Enterprise Agile Planning) iterations to track planning uncertainties. * Access a dedicated RIDAC menu in Strategic Planning Workspace for quick navigation to RIDAC items. * Manage RIDAC items with granular role-based access---assign read-only or full edit access to team members based on their responsibilities. * Run the scheduled job to populate the planning item field on the existing RIDAC records that were created earlier. * Track RIDAC across multiple scopes---view all RIDAC, project-specific RIDAC, portfolio RIDAC, and program RIDAC in a single unified view. [Creating iterations for teams in EAP](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=simplified-iteration-creation-in-eap&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   From EAP version 4.17.0, create Planning Intervals and Sprints directly from the Backlog by entering their start and end dates. The underlying planning calendar entries are created for you, so nobody has to define them before teams can plan. The following capabilities support this flow: * Users with the new `sn_apw_advanced.eap_scrum_master` role create the first iteration for a set of teams that share a planning calendar. After that timeline exists, users with the `sn_apw_advanced.eap_user` role create the following iterations for the other ARTs and teams that share it. * Select Have unique calendars on an EAP configuration to give each ART that you add afterward its own planning calendar. By default, the ARTs in a configuration share one calendar and follow one cadence. * When an Agile Team joins an ART, the in-progress Sprint and the upcoming Sprints are created for that team automatically. * Planning calendar entries that your admin defined earlier remain valid. Teams can continue to create iterations within the timelines that those entries define. [Refresh without losing your place in the EAP Hierarchy tab](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=eap-hierarchy-tab&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Selecting Refresh in the Hierarchy tab now reloads your data without collapsing the rows you've already expanded or resetting your scroll position. Rows deleted by someone else are removed silently, and new child items appear under their expanded parent. If the grid displays more than 100 non-root items or 100 stories, you're asked to confirm before all rows are collapsed. [View or delete a dependency directly from the EAP Planning board](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=work-item-dependencies-in-eap&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Select a dependency line on the Planning board to open the dependency record in a side panel, without navigating to the work item's full details page. Review the dependent and prerequisite items, or select Delete to remove the dependency directly from the panel. [Backlog and Hierarchy access for CWM connected teams](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=integrate-eap-with-collaborative-work-management&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Teams connected to CWM can now access the Backlog and Hierarchy tabs in EAP. Because sprints are started and completed from the CWM Board, the Start Sprint and Complete Sprint options are hidden in the EAP Backlog for these teams. [Plan efficiently with additional pre-defined lenses](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=lens-alignment-planner-workspace&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Use the Planning item lens to plan, prioritize, and roadmap work in Strategic Planning Workspace directly with planning items, without configuring organization structure, programs, portfolios, or products. The lens supports all enabled work item types, such as projects and demands, and can be used as a standalone lens or alongside other lenses. [Move work items to the top or bottom in EAP Backlog](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=schedule-work-items-into-iterations-in-eap-backlog&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Promote an urgent story to the top of a sprint or push deprioritized work to the bottom of a long backlog without dragging items across multiple pages. Right-click any story, feature, capability, or epic in the EAP Backlog, iteration, or team grid and select Move to top or Move to bottom to re-prioritize the work item in one action. Prioritization changes take effect across all pages, so you can act on shifting priorities even when the work item is far from its target position. [Live updates in the EAP Hierarchy tab](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=eap-hierarchy-tab&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Keep working in your hierarchy without breaking your flow each time you create a work item. When you create a work item with the Hierarchy tab open, it is added to your current view immediately, so you don't need to refresh the page to see a new story, feature, capability, or epic. A new top-level item appears alongside the existing top-level items for the selected portfolio configuration. A new child item appears under its parent when that parent is expanded. [Active work first in the EAP Backlog](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=using-eap&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Plan and prioritize without sifting through completed or cancelled work. The Backlog section of the EAP Backlog tab now hides completed and cancelled work items by default, so the list shows only what your teams have to work on. Sprint and Planning Interval (PI) sections continue to show all work items, giving you visibility into both ongoing and finished work for each iteration. Admins can change these settings for either sections using two new system properties: `sn_apw_advanced.show_inactive_items_in_backlog_list` for the Backlog section and `sn_apw_advanced.show_inactive_items_in_iteration` for iteration sections. [Epic status assessment](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=assess-epic-status-now-assist-eap&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Automatically evaluate epic health across six risk dimensions using the Epic status assessment skill in Enterprise Agile Planning. Now Assist analyzes story health, blocked stories, dependencies, progress, timeline, and ownership to return a red, yellow, or green status with plain-English reasoning. Portfolio managers can quickly assess epic risks without manually reviewing stories, timelines, and assignments by selecting the Epic status button on the epic record page. [AI-generated insights for portfolio plans](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=view-portfolio-insights&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Gain AI-generated insights for planning items within a portfolio plan using the Portfolio insights skill. Identify planning items that are delayed beyond their planned end date, have delayed starts, or have misalignments between planned and approved dates. Monitor active projects that show early risk indicators but have not yet experienced delays. View AI-generated top root causes and recommended actions for each insight category to help address delays and misalignments effectively. The AI Insights window displays a timestamp indicating when insights were last generated. You can regenerate insights and recommendations if required to see the changes based on the latest available data. Users with the sn_align_core.apw_admin role can configure severity thresholds and scoring factors for planning items. These settings control how the Portfolio insights skill classifies insight severity as Critical, Medium, or Low. [AI-generated insights for goals](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=generate-insights-for-goal-strategy&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : * Generate AI‑powered insights using the goal insights skill to gain predictive, actionable visibility into goal health. By analyzing the goal, goal targets, subgoals, and aligned work, the system delivers data‑driven insights that help goal owners and contributors manage risks proactively and improve goal outcomes. Insights include AI-forecasted status, confidence of achieving the goal, targets at risk, and aligned work or recommendations that have been delayed or stalled. * View the AI-forecasted status for goals and targets in the grid, generated automatically via the Goal insights generation scheduled job, along with the rationale for the generated status. * Configure run frequency and set of goals to run the Goal insights generation scheduled job as need. The job is inactive by default. [Story generation for epics in Agile Development 2.0 and EAP](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=generate-stories-quickly-for-eap-and-agile-2-0&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Generate a complete user story, including title, description, and acceptance criteria, directly from an epic instead of creating one. By providing one or two lines of context, you can generate a story and edit inline before saving. This skill is available in both Agile Development 2.0 and EAP. [Next Experience for Demand Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=demand-workspace&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Next Experience for Demand Management delivers a unified experience for managing strategic and operational demands in Strategic Planning. This Next Experience interface consolidates demand creation, assessment, collaboration, and conversion in one place, eliminating context switching and reducing reliance on the classic Demand Workbench. [Create and manage demands in Next Experience for Demand Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=use-demands-dmnd-wpc&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : * Create and manage a demand in Next Experience for Demand Management using guided tabs that help you define alignment, estimate costs, and confirm readiness as you build out the demand. * Collaborate on demands through Docs, with execution and planning synced. * View, add, and edit cost plans and budgeting details using related lists. [Use Playbooks in Next Experience for Demand Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=use-playbooks-in-dw&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Help teams manage demands with greater structure and consistency using Playbook in Next Experience for Demand Management. Playbooks enable you to define multiple governance processes across the organization using a low‑code/no‑code configuration experience. Create clear stages and guided activities from demand intake to completion using a default playbook or a custom playbook. Custom playbooks support multiple demand management processes across your organization's multiple demand management processes. [Associate AI systems with demands in Next Experience for Demand Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=use-playbooks-in-dw&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Use a playbook activity in Next Experience for Demand Management to associate AI systems with a demand. You can link impacted systems and add new ones directly within the demand workflow. [Summarize demands using AI](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=summarize-demand-in-demand-workspace&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Generate a concise, structured summary of any demand using the demand summarization skill through the Summarize button in the demand form. The skill reviews the demand fields and helps create a clear summary of the demand. [Strategy and Goals](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=strategy-goals-landing-page&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Use boards in Strategy and Goals to organize and manage your organization's strategic priorities and objectives. A board is a collection of strategic plans, priorities, objectives, and key results based on your selected filter criteria---helping you stay focused and manage them effectively. * Managing boards: * Create boards step by step, choosing whether to base them on strategic plans, priorities, goals, or both. Define what items to display using advanced filter conditions. * Build boards tailored to specific goals by entity type and entity, ensuring focus on the goals that matter most. * Share boards with stakeholders to align efforts and drive shared outcomes. * Add boards to your favorites for faster navigation. * Managing strategy and goals using boards: * Create and organize strategic plans, strategic priorities, goals, and key results in a single, focused view. * Associate work or planning items with goals or targets to align your current or future work with your strategic priorities, helping your team achieve goals and targets efficiently. * As the goal or process owner, send notifications to target owners or contributors to ensure timely updates of target actuals. * Target owners and contributors receive reminder notifications for check-in updates before the due date. * With ServiceNow Otto for Strategic Portfolio Management, generate measurable targets for your goals to reduce the effort of defining clear success criteria, and gain actionable insights to identify at‑risk goals, assess forecasted status, and act on AI‑driven recommendations. [Portfolio plan goals enhancements](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=managing-goals-in-alignment-planner-workspace&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : * Owners and contributors are notified when they're mentioned in a goal, target, or when comments are added. * Define targets across multiple organizational levels with the Assigned entity field in the target form. This enables targets created at higher levels (for example, Company) to be directly assigned to lower levels (for example, Business Unit, Department), eliminating redundant subgoal creation, and streamlining overall goal management. * Status --- Green, Yellow, Red, or None --- rolls up automatically from target breakdowns to the target for targets set to cumulative distribution, and from targets and subgoals to the goal. [Portfolio plan enhancements](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=create-portfolio-plans-in-alignment-planner-workspace&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : * Visualize planning items in lanes with the new Kanban tab in the Planning page and access the Hierarchy tab directly from the same location. These tabs replace the previous access point in the Prioritization tab, offering a more streamlined way to view and manage planning items. * Save filter views specific to the Kanban tab and the Hierarchy tab without affecting views in the Prioritization tab. * View planning items in the new Hierarchy tab on the Planning page, now sorted using global rank when available. Drag and drop is supported for lowest‑level items, enabling you to rerank them within their groups. * Share a portfolio plan using the Copy link option. This provides access to existing users who have access to the portfolio plan. * Make a portfolio plan public and share the copied link with Strategic Planning Workspace users, without inviting them individually or as a group. Note that users accessing a public portfolio plan with the shared link cannot view scenarios within the plan. * Expand or collapse portfolio plan header to maximize screen space while planning. * Edit the default view within a portfolio plan and save changes using the Save view option. * View additional status attributes --- cost, resource, schedule, and scope --- for planning items in Strategic Planning Workspace. For project planning items, these attributes are synced automatically from the latest published project status report. For other planning items, these attributes can be set manually. Note that project status report attributes synced from the Project status (project_status) table are read-only in Strategic Planning Workspace and can't be edited directly. * Set planning item status to No status when a status has not been determined, in addition to the existing Green, Yellow, and Red values, giving planners the flexibility to update the status as needed. By default, the status is set No status when a planning item is created. * Display rollup bars at parent levels in the hierarchy view and choose the date type to display --- approved, planned, or actual. Use the comparison option to compare date types, such as approved versus planned dates, to identify schedule misalignments. [Hierarchy tab for EAP teams](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=eap-hierarchy-tab&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Gain visibility into how your work connects to broader organizational goals by viewing the complete work item hierarchy directly in the EAP workspace. Expand any epic to see its capabilities, features, and stories across Solution Trains, ARTs, and Agile Teams without switching between multiple screens or running separate reports. Customize your view by selecting which columns appear in the hierarchy grid and adjusting column widths to match your workflow. Your column preferences persist across sessions, so your configured view is ready each time you return. The Hierarchy tab requires your admin to enable it through the sn_apw_advanced.enable_hierarchy_view system property. See [Enable Hierarchy tab in EAP](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=hierarchy-enable-eap&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US). [Open EAP work items in new browser tab](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=using-eap&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   Open work items from the EAP Backlog and Hierarchy pages in a new browser tab, so you never lose your context. Right-click any work item, or use the item options menu, to open its full details in a separate tab. This feature lets you review and compare multiple work items side by side without losing your current view. [Financials for planning items](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=using-financials-spw&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : * Migration of financial baselines: * Migrate the financial baselines of projects, which includes investment currency support. * While migration, financial baselines will now include actuals, costs, benefits, and budget values from the project currency to the investment currency. * Streamlined currency fields while using multicurrency: * New and existing customers will now see only investment currency fields in demand and project records. * Planned costs, actual costs, planned benefits, actual benefits, and budget fields are included in the financial baselines. [Admin role enhancements in Feedback](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=components-installed-with-product-feedback&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   The read role sn_align_core.pf_read and write role sn_align_core.apw_admin are added to the following system properties in Feedback and Product idea: * sn_apw_advanced.product_feedback_allowed_non_planning_items_for_link_item * sn_apw_advanced.product_feedback_product_idea_filters * sn_apw_advanced.product_feedback_feedback_filters * sn_apw_advanced.feedback.idea_feedback_queue_address |
| Brazil | [Enterprise-wide deployment for demands](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=ewd-for-demands-dw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Partition demand data by any criteria, such as department or business unit, using Enterprise-Wide Deployment (EWD) partitioning on the Demand table and related entities. Demands are stamped with a matching partition, and users see only the demands, list views, search results, and dashboards for the partitions their role grants them. EWD for demands includes the following functionalities: * Demand experiences: Define the way a particular demand should work including its form view, modules, and dynamic attributes. For example, a particular view or certain functions available on a demand or menu items hidden or visible for different types of demands. * Demand partitions: Control the data visible to different users. * Demand partitions dashboard: Dedicated dashboard for different demand partitions. [Smart assessments for demands](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=smart-assessments-overview&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Smart assessments are now available for demands, which are triggered on moving the demand to screening. These assessments are controlled by the sn_align_ws.enable_smart_assessments system property. After this property is enabled, smart assessments are triggered for the new demands and the ones that aren't yet in the screening state. The smart assessment form is more intuitive and supports text-based questions. The assessments are available at the individual demand record and in a consolidated Smart Assessments module in the main navigation menu. This module displays all assigned smart assessments across demands. [Resource profiling for demands](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=resource-planning-for-demands-dw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Plan and manage resource assignments for a demand from the Resources tab in Next Experience for Demand Management. The resource board shows assignments alongside resource capacity so you can confirm availability before converting a demand to a project. Create, copy, move, split, end, or reassign resource assignments directly from the grid, group by primary group, role, or skill, and use the allocation heatmap to identify over-allocated and available resources. Use the Resource Finder to get fit-scored, ranked resource recommendations with rationale for unassigned work. Kanban teams in the portfolio structure in EAP :   Run Scrum and Kanban teams under the same Agile Release Train (ART). Select a planning methodology when you add a team to an ART, or set the Planning methodology field on an existing team. Kanban teams plan from the team backlog: sprint controls are hidden, planning intervals skip them, and the Home page shows the Kanban Team dashboard. Both team types appear side by side on the ART planning board. [Maintain-type targets](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=target-types-overview&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Track targets that must hold steady across every check-in period using the Maintain above, Maintain below, and Maintain constant target types. Each breakdown period's planned target defaults to the final target value, or 0 if no final value is set, and you can edit it for each period. Target progress is the share of periods that met the condition: at or above the target for Maintain above, at or below it for Maintain below, and within a tolerance band around it for Maintain constant. The default tolerance band is ±5%, and administrators can change it with the sn_gf.maintain_constant_tolerance_percent system property. For example, a Maintain above target of 75 with quarterly actuals of 78, 72, 80, and 76 shows 75% progress, because one of the four quarterly actuals didn't meet the target. When you change the start date, end date, or final target value, the breakdowns and planned values adjust automatically and actuals in the remaining periods are kept. The Target value distribution field is hidden for Maintain types. [Unique numbers and prefixes for goals and targets](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=change-number-prefix-goals-targets-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Differentiate goals and targets that share a name across teams by using the Number field. Goals use the OBJ prefix and targets use the KR prefix, for example OBJ0004512 and KR0009871. The number appears on goal and target forms, list views, board views, and exports. The GF - Override Goal and Target Number fields with customized prefixes scheduled job updates existing GOAL and TRGT numbers to OBJ and KR and keeps the numeric portion. An administrator can run the scheduled job to override default populated prefixes. [RIDAC for portfolio plans](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=portfolio-plan-ridac-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Access portfolio risks, issues, decisions, actions, and requested changes (RIDAC) directly from the portfolio plan using the dedicated RIDAC page within the portfolio plan. View all portfolio governance items in a single, integrated interface without navigating to the separate RIDAC menu. The RIDAC page reduces context-switching and improves portfolio visibility by consolidating governance data. The portfolio plan RIDAC displays the RIDAC items that match the portfolio plan's criteria or belong to the planning items of that portfolio plan. [Show or hide RIDAC page of a portfolio plan](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=show-or-hide-the-features-for-your-portfolio-plan-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   As a portfolio manager, show or hide the RIDAC page of your portfolio plan. This capability helps you share only the portfolio plan data that matters to your stakeholders and restrict access to the other data. [Programs enhanced experience](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=program-portfolio-plan-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Access dedicated program planning views automatically created with zero setup. Navigate to the new Programs menu and click any program to open its dedicated plan with Prioritization, Roadmap, Kanban, and Financials views. New programs get plans instantly; existing programs receive them through an automatic one-time backfill (500 at a time, newest first). Role-based access ensures users with the sn_align_core.ap_read_only role can read, users with the sn_align_core.apw_user role can manage items, and program managers are automatic plan owners. [Program-scoped data with fiscal calendar support](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=program-portfolio-plan-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   View and manage program-scoped planning data in a focused, streamlined interface. Program plans display only that program's planning items. The Financials tab defaults to your fiscal calendar; if the fiscal calendar doesn't span the program dates, the system gracefully falls back to Gregorian with an explanatory message. Making the portfolio plan public and scenario planning for these program portfolio plans are hidden. [Automated email notification for scenario approval](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=approve-a-scenario-in-strategic-planning&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Receive email notification when a scenario is approved. The system sends the notification to the scenario approver and portfolio owner. During the approval process, the portfolio plan becomes read-only to prevent unintended modifications and maintain data integrity. [Automatic status calculation for targets](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=automatic-status-calculation-targets-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Automatically determine target status based on actual achievement percentages. When you enter actual values for a target period, the system compares the achievement percentage against predefined thresholds and automatically assigns a status (Green, Yellow, or Red). This eliminates manual status selection, reducing data entry errors and improving organizational governance. Status is calculated and updated when you enter actual values using the formula: ((Actual Value - Start Value) / (Planned Target - Start Value)) x 100. Target owners can override automatically calculated status values at any time. If you update the actual value after a manual override, the system recalculates the status automatically. [Configure automatic status calculation thresholds](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=configure-automatic-status-calculation-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Enable administrators to customize automatic status calculation thresholds and enable or disable the feature based on organizational requirements. By default, automatic status calculation is enabled with system-defined thresholds of Green (≥90%), Yellow (75-89%), and Red (\<75%). Administrators can adjust threshold percentages using the system property sn_gfa.target.auto_status.thresholds. To disable automatic status calculation and revert to manual status selection, set the system property to <kbd class="ph userinput">false</kbd>. [Scrum Configuration in Enterprise Agile Planning](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=agile-configurations-in-eap&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Set up teams that run Sprints without a Planning Interval above them by using the Scrum Configuration in Enterprise Agile Planning. It defines a single team level of the type Agile Team and allows the Epic and Story work item types. Story is the default work item type for that level and is mapped to the new Scrum Sprint planning calendar. The Epic methodology field is set to Scrum. Like the other default configurations, the Scrum Configuration is inactive until you activate it. [Unique iteration cadence for each team in Enterprise Agile Planning](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=simplified-iteration-creation-in-eap&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Let each team set its own iteration dates by selecting Allow unique cadence for each team on an Enterprise Agile Planning configuration. If the configuration has planning calendars at more than one team level, each top-level team receives its own calendar. If the configuration has a single level of iterations, such as Sprints only, the iterations carry their own start and end dates instead of following a planning calendar entry. Teams that you add after you select this option receive a unique calendar, and teams that already exist continue to use the default calendar of the configuration. [Spillover and New scope fields on iterations in Enterprise Agile Planning](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=start-or-complete-iteration-in-eap&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   See how the scope of a Sprint moved during its run by using the Spillover and New scope fields on the Enterprise agile iteration \[sn_apw_advanced_eap_iteration\] record. Spillover is the sum of the story points of the committed stories that are no longer in the iteration when it completes. New scope is the sum of the story points of the stories that were added after the iteration started. Both fields are read-only and are calculated when you complete the iteration. Select a value to open the stories that it counts. [Copy and customize the demand summarization skill](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=clone-customize-demand-summarization-skill&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Tailor demand summaries to your organization's process by copying the base demand summarization skill and customizing it with your own input fields, related entities, and prompt. When you activate a copy of the demand summarization skill, the previously active skill, either the base skill or an earlier copy, is automatically deactivated. Only one version of the skill can be active at a time. [Work with demands in Employee Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=my-demands-widget&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Create and track demands without leaving the conversation-first Employee Slate workspace. Describe the demand in a conversation to have matching catalog items identified and relevant fields prepopulated from your message, then track its status, activity, and progress using the new My Demands widget on your canvas or the standard Requests widget. Demands appear in Employee Slate only when both Project Workspace and Employee Slate Core apps are installed. |

## Changes

Between your current release family and Brazil, some changes were made to existing Strategic Planning features.  
{#dfrn3-strategicplanning-summary__entry__14}

| Release | Release notes |
|-|-|
| Australia | [Australia Patch 5](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=australia-patch-5&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US)[Summarize demands using AI](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=summarize-demand-in-demand-workspace&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   The demand summary is generated in the AI Overview tab instead of the Details tab. The skill is set to trigger automatically, that is, the summary is generated on landing in this tab. Auto-generation is on by default and applies to demands in Submitted, Screening, Qualified, or Approved states. You can define the trigger to manually trigger as well, where users must select the Summarize button to generate the summary. [AI skills for Demand Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=similar-demand-identification-using-now-assist&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   ServiceNow Otto introduced AI on the platform. As that experience has evolved, there's a new name for the experience. ServiceNow Otto® is the conversational AI platform integrated into ServiceNow workflows. It provides agentic capabilities, supports multimodal interactions across web, mobile, and messaging channels, and enables autonomous orchestration for cross-system workflows. [Access execution records from Portfolio Plans](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=access-demands-from-portfolio-plan-spw&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   The execution URL is updated on the planning item demand. New planning items demand will automatically use the new execution URL. The execution URLs on existing planning item demands continue to work but doesn't reflect the updated navigation. Run the Update Demand Planning Item Execution URL scheduled job to update the execution URL on the existing demands. [Components installed with Enterprise Agile Planning](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=components-installed-with-enterprise-agile-planning&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   The EAP role hierarchy is updated. The `sn_apw_advanced.eap_admin` role now contains `sn_apw_advanced.eap_scrum_master`, which in turn contains `sn_apw_advanced.eap_user`. The `sn_apw_advanced.eap_admin` role no longer contains `sn_apw_advanced.eap_user` directly. As a result, the following actions require the `sn_apw_advanced.eap_scrum_master` role: * Changing the start date or the end date of an iteration. * Creating, editing, and deleting planning calendars and calendar spans. Because `sn_apw_advanced.eap_admin` contains `sn_apw_advanced.eap_scrum_master`, users with the admin role keep access to these actions. [Demand summarization skill enhancements](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=demand-summary-demand-classic&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   The demand summarization skill incorporates data from related entities when generating a summary. In addition to demand record fields, the summary includes insights from demand tasks, cost plans, monetary and non-monetary benefit plans, resource assignments, and work notes. The generated summary covers business requirements, timeline, risks, stakeholder comments, cost, effort, monetary and non-monetary benefits, and ROI. [Next Experience for Demand Management](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=demand-workspace&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : * The Demands icon has been added to the Strategic Planning L1 menu to open the All Demands home page. * The State field on the All Demands page has been color-coded for each state value. * The Playbook, Details, and Docs tabs have been added to the L2 menu of each demand to clearly and consistently group information. * The Details tab has been added to add and manage demand information such as financials and resource assignments. * The Playbook tab has been added to define clear stages and guided activities to read and follow. Selecting the name of a stage or activity navigates you to that stage or activity in the playbook. The Skip, Update, and Mark Complete options have been added to the activities of the playbook. * The Docs tab has been added to view and manage the documentation on the demand. * If you have the AI Control Tower plugin installed and the investment type of the demand is set to artificial intelligence: * The AI Associations section in the Demand details is displayed. The following fields are included: * Product: Enables you to select the product or system that the demand relates to. * Impacted AI systems: Links the impacted AI systems with the demand. You can select existing AI systems from the list or remove systems that are no longer relevant. * The AI Checkpoint stage is added to the demand default playbook. This stage includes the Product and Impacted AI systems fields. * The Create AI System option is added to the Details page of a demand for users with the sn_ai_steward role. * [Australia Patch 5](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=australia-patch-5&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US)The Financials grid is added to the navigation menu of a demand. It has options to create cost plans, monetary benefits plans, expense lines, and create and compare baselines. * The Dashboards menu item is added for demands, providing Overview, Financials, and Data Quality tabs. * The following items have been added to the demand form and are available if you have the identify similar records AI skill activated: * The Identify similar demands button, which identifies and displays similar demands. * The Similar Demands tab in Details, which displays the list of similar demand records identified by AI. * The AI Overview tab is added to the navigation menu of a demand. It generates a demand summary on landing if the skill trigger is set to automatic. If the trigger is set to manual, a Summarize button is available to generate the summary. [Changes to Target form](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=target-form-egm&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   The following fields have been added to the Target form to support defining targets at multiple organizational levels. * Assigned entity * Company * Business Unit * Department * Portfolio * Product model * Value stream * Initiative * Strategic Program [Changes to Strategic Priority form](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=strategic-priority-form&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   The Status field has been added to the Strategic Priority form, enabling you to set the status of a strategic priority as None, Green, Yellow, or Red. [Hierarchy and List views in Prioritization](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=managing-backlog-alignment-planner-workspace&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   The Kanban and Hierarchy views have been removed from the Prioritization page and are now available as separate tabs in the Planning page. This change improves navigation by consolidating all planning-related views in one place. [Large language models on the ServiceNow AI Platform](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=exploring-large-language-models&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) :   The Now LLM Service is no longer the default model provider for new or inactive AI assets. A third-party LLM is now selected by default, while existing configurations using the Now LLM Service continue unchanged. The Now LLM Service is still available for manual selection. |
| Brazil | Switching a team to Kanban in EAP :   Sprints that aren't complete are cancelled when you set a team's Planning methodology to Kanban, including the team's current sprint. Completed and cancelled sprints aren't changed, and work items stay assigned to the sprints that were cancelled. A team connected to Collaborative Work Management (CWM) can't be switched to Kanban while it has active or planned sprints. Planning methodology on existing teams in EAP :   Each existing agile team is assigned a planning methodology when you upgrade: Scrum if the team or its configuration has a business calendar, Kanban if neither has one. Because Kanban teams don't show sprint controls, review any team created without a business calendar and set its Planning methodology to Scrum if that team plans in sprints. [Automatic status for Maintain type targets](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=automatic-status-calculation-targets-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Automatic status calculation extends to Maintain type targets. Each breakdown period is set to Green when its actual meets the Maintain condition and Red when it doesn't. [Target type changes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=target-types-overview&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Change a target's type after actuals are recorded, without deleting and recreating the target. Actuals to date are kept and recorded in the latest breakdown period. Planned values are recalculated for the new type, and progress is evaluated under the new type's logic. A confirmation message appears before the change is applied, and selecting Cancel keeps the previous type and data. Type changes are captured in the audit history. [Unit of measure on targets](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=set-targets-for-goal-egm&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Select the target type before the unit of measure when you create a target. Milestone sets the unit of measure to Yes/No, and Maximize, Minimize, and Maintain types default to Count. Later type changes keep the unit of measure you selected. If it isn't valid for the new type, you're prompted to pick one. This applies to the target modals in Enterprise Goals and portfolio plan goals, and to inline editing in the target list. [No status label](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=components-installed-with-alignment-planner-workspace&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   The None status choice is labeled No status for goals, strategic priorities, targets, target progress, and target breakdowns. [RIDAC by portfolio and program](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=portfolio-plan-ridac-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   View decisions alongside other RIDAC items for portfolios and programs when you open RIDAC from the Strategic Planning Workspace RIDAC menu. The Portfolio Risks and Program Risks menus are renamed RIDAC by Portfolio and RIDAC by Program. [Target generation for Maintain-type targets](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=generate-targets-for-goal&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Generate Maintain above, Maintain below, and Maintain constant targets with ServiceNow Otto target generation skill for goals that sustain a level rather than move toward one, such as platform uptime, a cost ceiling, or team headcount. When a Maintain type is suggested, the target modal shows the threshold value and hides the start value field. Review the suggested type and change it if needed before you save the target. [Goal insights for Maintain-type targets](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=generate-insights-for-goal-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   ServiceNow Otto goal insights include Maintain-type targets (Maintain above, Maintain below, and Maintain constant) when summarizing goal progress. [Resource assignment offsets when converting a demand to a project](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=data-migrated-from-demand-to-project-dw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   When a demand with resource assignments is converted to a project, assignment offsets are recalculated against the project's schedule, which counts only the working days defined in the project schedule, instead of the demand, which has no schedule and counts every calendar day. [Execution URL on planning item demands](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=update-execution-url-for-demand-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   Run the Update Demand Planning Item Execution URL scheduled job to update the execution URLs on your existing demands to the latest format. [Roadmap export range](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=export-a-portfolio-plan-to-powerpoint-strategic-planning&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   The maximum date range for exporting a roadmap to PowerPoint increased from 1 year to 3 years, within the start and end dates of the portfolio. The exported timescale adjusts to the range you select: months for a range of 1 year or less, and quarters for a range longer than 1 year. [Program portfolio plan enhancements](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=program-portfolio-plan-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : * **Program details** --- Select the information icon next to the program name to view the planning item types, program timeline, and program manager. * **Program value for new items** --- When you create a demand or project from a program portfolio plan, the Program field is prefilled with that program. * **Prioritization default layout** --- The default Prioritization view shows the Rank, Name, Planning state, Planning item type, Status, Cost status, Resource status, Schedule status, Scope status, Percent complete, Primary goal, and Owner columns. * **Goals tab** --- Program portfolio plans include the Goals tab, which shows all primary and non-primary goals linked to the planning items in the plan, along with goals assigned directly to the program. * **Public views** --- Any user who can access a program portfolio plan can create and update its public views. Previously, only plan editors could create or update public views. Financials :   Added in-context help (hover info icons) on the Financials page widgets, explaining how the key fields like Budget, EAC, Planned Cost, Actuals, Return, ROI, and NPV are calculated. [Enterprise Agile Planning configuration options](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=create-eap-configuration&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : * The Have unique calendars option is renamed to Allow unique cadence for each team. * An EAP admin can now clear the Allow unique cadence for each team option after selecting it. Selecting the option doesn't change the calendars or the iterations that already exist. * The Scrum Sprint planning calendar type is available by default, alongside Planning Interval and Sprint. [Iteration dates in Enterprise Agile Planning](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=edit-pi-sprint-iteration-details-in-eap&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : * The Enterprise agile calendar entry field on the Enterprise agile iteration \[sn_apw_advanced_eap_iteration\] table is no longer mandatory, which supports iterations that carry their own start and end dates. A fix script makes the field optional when you upgrade. * Users with the `sn_apw_advanced.eap_user` role can set the start date and the end date while they create an iteration. They can change those dates afterward on an iteration that doesn't follow a planning calendar entry. However, changing the dates on an iteration that follows a planning calendar entry still requires the `sn_apw_advanced.eap_scrum_master` role. [Sprint sync with Agile Development 2.0](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=sync-eap-and-agile-2&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : * Sprints that don't follow a planning calendar entry now sync to Agile Development 2.0 by using the start date and the end date on the iteration. * Changing the start date or the end date of an iteration now updates the dates on the corresponding Sprint in Agile Development 2.0. [Program planning updates and enhancements](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=program-portfolio-plan-spw&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : * **Programs menu addition** --- A new Programs menu has been added to the workspace as L2 menu, positioned below Portfolio Plan. This menu lists every program in your portfolio and provides single-click navigation to each program's enhanced planning view. * **Role-based access for program planning** --- Users with the sn_align_core.ap_read_only role have read access to program plans (where they already have program-level read access). Users with the sn_align_core.apw_admin and program manager roles receive full access to create, update, and manage planning items within program plans [Summarize demands using AI](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=summarize-demand-in-demand-workspace&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) :   The default trigger is not set to Automatic for demands in any state. You can select how you want the skill to be triggered for any state. |
