      Provide feedback for the summary If you think that the summary was helpful, select the helpful icon (Helpful icon.). If you think that the summary wasn’t helpful, select the not helpful icon (Not helpful icon.).

      This feedback improves the generative AI model and can help to improve the future versions of this skill. The system gathers the feedback on each generated summary and stores it in the generative AI logs (sys_generative_ai_log_list.do).

      More information on summary If you want to check some details about the summary, select the more info icon (More information icon.).
      Copy the Docs summary Select the copy to clipboard icon (Copy to clipboard icon.) to use the summary information for another purpose, such as pasting it into an email.
      Note:
      Because the information in these fields is AI generated, it's a good idea to review the text and make sure it's accurate.

      Only an administrator can activate the Now Assist skills. For more information, see Configure Now Assist for Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM).

      The Project doc summarization skill checks the doc content to determine if enough information is available to generate a summary. If there isn't enough content to summarize, you can add more content and retry.

      Note:
      The Summarize button is visible only if the Project doc summarization skill is active. If the selected text exceeds the token limit for Now Assist, the Project doc summarization skill can't be executed. If there is more content to summarize, you can remove some content and retry.
