New features

Between your current release family and Washington DC, new features were introduced for Service Portfolio Management.


Release	Release notes
Vancouver	View availability results Use the redesigned service availability calculator for improved availability performance, calculations, and maintenance. To access the new calculator, you must enable the com.snc.availability.v2 system property. New customers automatically get the updated redesigned version, but existing customers must set the property to true to opt in. Create catalog items for service offering subscribers Link catalog item record producers to service offerings. The service offering items orderable by subscribers related list shows general information for the related catalog items. The added attribute, Class, indicates if the catalog item is a record producer. When you select Edit in the Items orderable by subscribers related list, a list of record producers is provided along with the catalog items. Note: To identify if a catalog item is a Class type record producer, enter `sc_cat_item_producer.list` in the Filter navigation field. Applying the CSDM guidelines to Service Portfolio Management Use the CSDM life-cycle fields in Service Portfolio Management to manage the end-to-end life cycle of services and service offerings. The shared field names provide you with consistency and alignment as you use other ServiceNow applications. Service Portfolio Management activation administration Install the Service Portfolio Management Foundation plugin by default on the ServiceNow AI Platform user interface.
