Show full answer Show less ## Key Features * **Partitioning for Record Visibility:** Brazil introduces partitions to separate and control access to records across functions such as IT Operations, HR, and Finance. Partitions are configured using reference fields (e.g., Department) on project, demand, program, and portfolio tables. * **Supported Tables and Workspaces:** Partitioning applies to primary tables---Project, Demand, Program, Portfolio---and related entities like cost and resource plans. Partition enforcement is automatic in Strategic Planning, Portfolio Planning, Project, and Resource Management Workspaces. * **Partition-Specific Dashboards:** Dashboards can be mapped to partitions, allowing customized layouts and settings per partition. This supports dynamic management of dashboards aligned with organizational structure. * **PMO Role for Enterprise-wide Visibility:** Assign the EWD PMO role to users who require visibility across all partitions, such as PMO leads and portfolio managers, ensuring appropriate access regardless of partition roles. ## Important Upgrade Information * After upgrading to version 1.0.5, system administrators will lose access to partitioned data unless they have the respective partition roles assigned. * To maintain administrator access across all partitions without specific roles, set the system property **snspmewd.allowadminaccesstoallpartitions** to **true** . By default, this property is **false**, enforcing strict role-based access. * A scheduled job is available to populate partition details on existing records created before partition configuration, which should be run after partition setup and role assignments. ## Changes and Enhancements * Partition protection now extends to portfolio-project relationships, ensuring users only see portfolio-project links for accessible partitions. * System administrators' access to partition-protected data is restricted by default to comply with strict data governance policies, requiring appropriate partition roles. * Uniform partition role validation applies to all users, including system administrators, to avoid unintended data exposure. ## Activation and Installation * SPM Enterprise-Wide Deployment is available via the ServiceNow Store. Installation and activation require requesting the app through the store, as detailed in the activation sections. ## Other Notes * No updates, removals, or deprecations were noted for Zurich or Australia releases in this combined documentation. * No changes to browser requirements, accessibility, localization, or additional requirements were introduced in this upgrade. ## Practical Implications for ServiceNow Customers Upgrading to Brazil enhances your ability to control and secure project and portfolio data by function or department through partitions. Proper role assignment and configuration of partition access are critical to maintaining appropriate data visibility and governance. Be sure to review and configure the administrator access property based on your organizational policies. Use partition-specific dashboards to tailor user experiences per function. The upgrade requires running a scheduled job to backfill partition data on legacy records, ensuring consistency of access controls across your enterprise.

Set the sn_spm_ewd.allow_admin_access_to_all_partitions system property to true if system administrators must continue accessing all the partitioned-data even though they don't have the respective partition role. For details, see [Configure administrator access to all partitions](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=configure-admin-access-to-all-partitions&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US). | [ ] ## New features Between your current release family and Brazil, new features were introduced for SPM Enterprise-Wide Deployment. {#dfrn3-spmenterprisewidedeployment-summary__entry__10} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Zurich | No updates for this release. | | Australia | [Partitions](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=create-partition-ewd&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : Separate and control record visibility across functions using partitions. * Create partitions for functions such as IT Operations, HR, and Finance using the EWD admin (sn_spm_ewd.ewd_admin) role. * Configure partition criteria using reference fields such as Department on the project, demand, program, and portfolio tables. [Supported tables and workspaces](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=supported-tables-for-partition-ewd&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : * Partitioning is supported on the following primary tables and their related entities: * Project \[pm_project\] * Demand \[dmn_demand\] * Program \[pm_program\] * Portfolio \[pm_portfolio\] Related entities such as cost plans, resource plans, and planning items automatically inherit the partition value from the parent record. * Partition enforcement applies automatically at runtime across the following workspaces: * Strategic Planning Workspace * Portfolio Planning Workspace * Project Workspace * Resource Management Workspace [Assign PMO role for visibility across all partitions](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=assign-pmo-roles-for-visibility-across-all-partitions&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : Assign the EWD PMO (sn_spm_ewd.ewd_pmo) role to users or user groups who require visibility across all partitions, regardless of their assigned partition role. This role is intended for PMO users such as organization leads who require enterprise-wide visibility across all departments. [Update existing records with partition details scheduled job](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=update-partition-details-for-existing-records&family=australia&ft:locale=en-US) : Populate partition details on records in the project, demand, program, portfolio, and planning item tables that were created before partition configuration was completed. Run this job only after completing partition configuration and assigning partition roles to users or user groups. | | Brazil | [Partition-specific dashboards](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=map-dashboard-to-partition-ewd&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : Map dashboards to partitions so that each partition uses its own dashboard layout and settings. A partition-to-dashboard mapping table stores these associations, so you can create, update, and delete mappings as your partition structure changes. | [ ] ## Changes Between your current release family and Brazil, some changes were made to existing SPM Enterprise-Wide Deployment features. {#dfrn3-spmenterprisewidedeployment-summary__entry__18} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Zurich | No updates for this release. | | Australia | No updates for this release. | | Brazil | [Portfolio project partition coverage](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=supported-tables-for-partition-ewd&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : Partition protection extends to the relationships between portfolios and projects, stored in the Portfolio Project \[`pm_m2m_portfolio_project`\] table. Users see portfolio-project relationships only for the partitions that they can access. [Restrict system administrator access to partitioned data](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=configure-admin-access-to-all-partitions&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) : Restrict system administrators from accessing partition-protected data through a new configurable system property. The system property sn_spm_ewd.allow_admin_access_to_all_partitions controls whether system administrators can access all partitions by default. By default, this property is set to `false`, which means system administrators must have the appropriate partition role to access partition-protected data. Users with the system administrator or sn_spm_ewd.ewd_admin role can configure this property. This enforces strict data governance policies at all security levels and prevents unintended access to sensitive partition data. When partition access restrictions apply, all user roles, including system administrators, are subject to uniform partition role validation. | [ ] ## Removed Between your current release family and Brazil, some SPM Enterprise-Wide Deployment features or functionality were removed. {#dfrn3-spmenterprisewidedeployment-summary__entry__26} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Zurich | No updates for this release. | | Australia | No updates for this release. | | Brazil | No updates for this release. | [ ] ## Deprecations Between your current release family and Brazil, some SPM Enterprise-Wide Deployment features or functionality were deprecated. {#dfrn3-spmenterprisewidedeployment-summary__entry__34} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Zurich | No updates for this release. | | Australia | No updates for this release. | | Brazil | No updates for this release. | [ ] ## Activation information Review information on how to activate SPM Enterprise-Wide Deployment. {#dfrn3-spmenterprisewidedeployment-summary__entry__42} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Zurich | No updates for this release. | | Australia | Activation information : Install Enterprise-Wide Deployment by requesting it from the ServiceNow Store.
