Project Portfolio Management.

## Configuration workflow {#configuring-portfolio-planning-with-ppm__section_dqy_3g3_s6b}

Use the following steps as guidelines for your Portfolio Planning with Project Portfolio Management (PPM) setup process. Some of these steps require the admin role (sn_align_core.apw_admin) and some require the user role (sn_align_core.apw_user).

1. [Create an alignment integration](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/Pbi33t7YwVmfzPLI2VCOhQ "Internal alignment integration synchronizes internal processes and data to support Strategic Portfolio Management, confirming that planning and execution are aligned with business objectives through real-time bi-directional synchronization with applications such as Project Portfolio Management, Agile Development 2.0, and Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe).").
2. [Generate default mapping configurations](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/CU7aHkbtkJkFcVZZuWZKQQ "Generate default mapping configurations to automatically create table maps, field maps, and choice maps for projects and demands, or customize mappings for specific integration needs.").
3. [Create custom mapping configurations](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/0qswdYcnISuLsWJIZ6ztWg "Create mapping configurations for planning items that are not created by default such as features, stories, etc.").
