## Summary of Scenario analysis entry points and flow configuration

Starting with Operational Resilience version 22.3.1, the advanced scenario analysis flow (snoperresscenarioanalysisadvance) replaces the legacy flow (snoperresscenarioanalysis) across multiple entry points within the Operational Resilience Workspace.
The advanced flow is enabled by default, providing enhanced functionality, while the legacy flow remains in the platform but is hidden by default.
Administrators with admin access can reactivate the legacy flow on specific entry points if needed, but only one flow can be active at a time per entry point.

## Entry Points and Their Configurations

* **Scenario Analysis List:** Rendered by a *sysuxlist* record, the default active list sources records from the advanced flow table. The legacy list is inactive and sources from the legacy table.
* **Home Page Widget:** The Operational Resilience Home page includes a progress widget for scenario analysis status. By default, the advanced flow's widget (*scenarioanalysisprogress* ) is visible, while the legacy widget (*scenarioanalysislegacyprogress*) is hidden. Each widget is supported by active or inactive data visualization reports respectively.
* **Vertical Page Layout:** Controls the Program Activities related list on Business Service, Service, and Offering records. By default, the related list linked to the advanced flow is active; the legacy list is inactive. Note that these lists display different columns, with the legacy list showing additional details such as state distribution and impact tolerance.
* **Operational Vulnerability Source Field:** The Source field on Operational vulnerability records distinguishes the origin of vulnerabilities. It defaults to linking with the advanced scenario analysis flow. If configured for legacy usage, the field shows "Scenario analysis (legacy)" instead.

## Practical Impact for ServiceNow Customers

* The advanced scenario analysis flow is the default and recommended option, providing improved integration and user experience within the Operational Resilience Workspace.
* Administrators can toggle between legacy and advanced flows on each entry point if organizational requirements necessitate continuing legacy workflows, ensuring flexibility during transition periods.
* Only one flow can be active per entry point to avoid conflicts, maintaining data integrity and consistent user experience.
* Customers can expect updated widgets, lists, and source field options that reflect the active flow, enabling accurate tracking and management of scenario analyses and vulnerabilities.

## Next Steps

To utilize the advanced scenario analysis flow, no additional activation is required beyond the default settings. For organizations needing to continue using legacy workflows, administrators should consult documentation on enabling the legacy scenario analysis flow for each entry point. For building scenario analyses, customers can refer to guidance on simulation or manual methods aligned with their chosen flow.  
Starting with Operational Resilience, version 22.3.1, the advanced scenario analysis flow (sn_oper_res_scenario_analysis_advance) replaces the legacy scenario analysis flow (sn_oper_res_scenario_analysis) across different
entry-point surfaces in the Operational Resilience Workspace.

The advanced scenario analysis flow is enabled by default in the Operational Resilience Workspace. The legacy flow remains in the platform but is hidden from the four entry-point surfaces described in this topic. If your organization needs to continue using the legacy flow, an administrator can
reactivate it on each surface.  
Note:  
Administrator (admin) access is required to make the configuration changes described in this topic. Only one flow (advanced or legacy) must be active at a time on each surface.

## Entry points {#scenario-analysis-entry-points__section_nft_ccs_jjc}

The advanced scenario analysis flow is active by default on these entry points:

* Scenario analysis (legacy) UX list record
* Scenario analysis widget in the Home page
* Vertical page layout
* Source field on the Operational vulnerability record

{#scenario-analysis-entry-points__ul_kxh_hcs_jjc}To enable the legacy flow on any of these entry points, see [Enable the legacy scenario analysis flow](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/yvBrEPTP~EKtzKlQwvBXsA "Complete admin procedure to activate the legacy scenario analysis flow (sn_oper_res_scenario_analysis) across the four entry-point surfaces in the Operational Resilience Workspace. Deactivate the advanced flow when you want to continue using the legacy scenario analysis flow.").

## Scenario analysis list {#scenario-analysis-entry-points__section_list}

The Scenario analysis list is rendered by a sys_ux_list record as shown in the example.

The All scenario analysis is active by default. It sources records from the \[sn_oper_res_scenario_analysis_advance\] table. The Scenario analysis (Legacy) is inactive and it sources records from the
\[sn_oper_res_scenario_analysis\] table.

## Home page widget {#scenario-analysis-entry-points__section_home_page_widget}

The Operational Resilience Home page shows a progress widget summarizing scenario analysis status. Starting with Operational Resilience, version 22.3.1, by default, the scenario_analysis_progress (advanced flow) is visible
and the scenario_analysis_legacy_progress (legacy flow) is hidden.

The Data visualization report states are shown in the table.
{#scenario-analysis-entry-points__table_rv2_5gs_jjc__entry__2}

| Report | State |
|-|-|
| Scenario analysis in progress | Active |
| Scenario analysis completed | Active |
| Scenario analysis (legacy) in progress | Inactive |
| Scenario analysis (legacy) completed | Inactive |
[Table 1. Data Visualization report states]

{#scenario-analysis-entry-points__table_rv2_5gs_jjc} {#scenario-analysis-entry-points__table_home_page_widget__entry__2}

| UI Component | Description |
|-|-|
| scenario_analysis_progress | Widget that displays progress data for the advanced scenario analysis flow. It is visible on the Operational Resilience Home page by default. |
| Data visualization reports (advanced flow) | Two report records that source the scenario_analysis_progress widget. It is Active by default. |
| scenario_analysis_legacy_progress | Widget that displays progress data for the legacy scenario analysis flow. It is hidden on the Operational Resilience Home page by default. |
| Data visualization reports (legacy flow) | Two report records that source the scenario_analysis_legacy_progress widget. It is Inactive by default. |
[Table 2. Widget configuration]

{#scenario-analysis-entry-points__table_home_page_widget}

## Vertical page layout {#scenario-analysis-entry-points__section_vertical_page_layout}

The Vertical page layout controls the Program Activities related list shown on Business Service, Service, and Offering records. Version 22.3.1 activates the related list pointing to the advanced flow and deactivates the one
pointing to the legacy flow.  
Note:  
The related lists display different columns. The advanced list shows limited columns; the legacy list includes additional columns such as State distribution and Impact tolerance.
{#scenario-analysis-entry-points__table_vertical_page_layout__entry__2}

| UI Component | Description |
|-|-|
| Program Activities (advanced) | Related list that surfaces records from the sn_oper_res_scenario_analysis_advance table on the Business Service, Service, and Offering records. It is active by default. |
| Program Activities (legacy) | Related list that surfaces records from the sn_oper_res_scenario_analysis table on the Business Service, Service, and Offering records. It is inactive by default. |
[Table 3. Program Activities configuration]

## Operational vulnerability Source field {#scenario-analysis-entry-points__section_dropdown}

The Source field (sn_oper_res_vulnerability.source) on the Operational vulnerability record identifies where a vulnerability originated. The list has multiple choices; this
release toggles only the two Scenario analysis entries.

When configured for the legacy flow, the Source drop-down on an Operational vulnerability record displays Scenario analysis (legacy) instead of Scenario analysis.
{#scenario-analysis-entry-points__table_dropdown__entry__2}

| UI Component | Description |
|-|-|
| Scenario analysis | Choice that links a vulnerability to the advanced scenario analysis flow. Active by default on the sn_oper_res_vulnerability.source list. |
| Scenario analysis (legacy) | Choice that links a vulnerability to the legacy scenario analysis flow. Inactive by default on the sn_oper_res_vulnerability.source list. |
[Table 4. Source choice list]

{#scenario-analysis-entry-points__table_dropdown}

## Default flow {#scenario-analysis-entry-points__section_mgs_1rs_hjc}

The advanced scenario analysis flow is active across all four entry points by default.
