Only users assigned the **sngrccompgenai.regchangeaiuser** role---manually granted to Regulatory Change Management (RCM) users---can generate these recommendations.

## Key Features

* **Configurable recommendations and actions:** Define and configure recommendations for various record types and enable follow-up actions directly within workflows.
* **Intelligent recommendations:** Utilize generative AI and Predictive Intelligence to provide relevant, continuously improving insights powered by machine learning models and predictive scoring.
* **Scalable design:** Support multiple recommendations per record type with customizable layout and structure, adaptable to various records and techniques.
* **Adoption enablement:** Rapid integration with upstream products and a user-friendly interface promoting actionable decision-making.
* **Rationalization support:** Customize deduplication logic to identify and manage duplicate records according to organizational rules.

## Key Outcomes

* Enhanced contextual visibility into AI-generated recommendations for improved decision-making related to regulatory alerts.
* A scalable and configurable framework enabling adoption across diverse use cases and record types within regulatory change management.
* Accelerated uptake of AI/ML recommendations in products, improving user productivity with clear next steps embedded in the interface.
* Customizable workflows and logic aligning with specific organizational processes and compliance requirements.

## Using the Recommendations

After generating recommendations for a regulatory alert, users can view detailed sections such as:

* **Recommended areas of impact:** Includes citations and control objectives relevant to the alert.
* **Details on citations and control objectives:** Descriptions and supplemental guidance help users understand and address these items.
* **Evaluate affected associations:** Lists child citations, control objectives, policies, controls, and risk statements that can be added to recommendations.

The interface also includes a feedback trail side-panel that tracks user interactions with recommendations, documenting accepted, skipped, or dismissed items to support continuous improvement.

## Next Steps for ServiceNow Customers

To implement and utilize these AI-generated recommendations effectively, ServiceNow customers should:

* Assign the **sngrccompgenai.regchangeaiuser** role to appropriate RCM users.
* Activate the **Regulatory alert recommendation skill** to generate actionable insights.
* Use the recommendation pages to review and act on suggested citations, control objectives, and impacted business operations.  
The recommendations framework is designed to deliver actionable, AI-driven insights directly within the user interface. It provides rich contextual information about recommendations, empowering users to make well-informed
decisions and take follow-up actions seamlessly. The scalable and flexible design supports multiple recommendation types and complex business scenarios.

Enhancing the recommendations framework empowers regulatory change managers to use the AI-driven recommendations for better identification of impactful business operations based on regulatory changes.

A default recommendation context named `Suggest business operations affected by regulatory alert` powered by ServiceNow Otto for IRM is shipped along with the Regulatory Change Management product. This recommendation context is used for generating recommended citations and control objectives for a regulatory alert.  
Note:  
Only users with the sn_grc_comp_genai.reg_change_ai_user role are able to see the option to generate recommendations for a regulatory alert. This role must be manually assigned to an RCM user.
