This enables better organization of compliance activities by assigning distinct responsibilities and tracking progress efficiently. * **Task State Flexibility:** Regulatory tasks can be closed automatically upon approval or manually during the Implementation state once all action tasks are complete. Reopening of action tasks is supported when a task is rejected, allowing review and resubmission aligned with regulatory requirements. * **Action Task Autonomy:** Assigned users can initiate and complete action tasks independently without prior managerial approval, streamlining task execution while maintaining role-based access controls for oversight. * **Smart Assessment Versioning (Australia release):** Regulatory assessment templates support versioning, enabling questionnaire updates without disrupting ongoing assessments. New assessments default to the latest template version. * **ServiceNow Otto for IRM:** The AI-powered conversational platform integrates with RCM to streamline regulatory alert analysis, impact assessment, and action plan generation using generative AI and agentic workflows. ## Changes * **Role and Security Enhancements:** Feature administrators can now perform tasks previously restricted to broader administrators, and read-only field security has been strengthened across multiple RCM-related plugins. * **UI and Usability Improvements:** The Coral theme is now the default for portals and mobile, offering a refreshed, brand-neutral look with an optional dark mode to enhance accessibility and reduce eye strain. * **Task Management Updates:** Default column configurations for regulatory and action tasks have been optimized for better visibility of key information. A new Tasks widget on alert overview pages shows the total number of associated tasks, improving workload assessment. * **Regulatory Task Workflows:** Defined state progressions for regulatory tasks and source document import tasks provide structured compliance tracking. Action tasks can be created in New, Work in Progress, or Implementation states to better manage task breakdown and execution. * **AI Platform Updates:** The default large language model provider for regulatory alert recommendations and agentic workflows has switched to AWS Claude. ServiceNow Otto has been renamed, and AI licensing tiers (Foundation, Advanced, Prime) offer varying capabilities based on customer entitlements. ## Activation and Installation Regulatory Change Management and ServiceNow Otto for IRM can be activated by requesting the applications from the ServiceNow Store.
