Accept AI-generated recommendations in Regulatory Change Management to mark specific business areas as impacted so that you can help compliance practitioners capture and address the relevant regulatory alert for policies. You can also dismiss recommendations to filter out irrelevant or unnecessary information.

Before you begin

Important: This generative AI skill is turned on by default. The skill will be automatically available to appropriate role users for the application. For more information, see Now Assist skills, agents, and agentic workflows on by default.

Role required: To view your assigned regulatory alerts, you need the sn_grc_reg_change.user and sn_grc_comp_genai.reg_change_ai_user roles.

Important: Be sure to check AI-generated recommendations for accuracy. If no information is available, the generated recommendations display "No recommendations available," "None," "No records to display," and so on.

To learn about the related roles and regulatory alerts for a recommendation, see Types of alerts, user roles, and states of regulatory alerts.

About this task

The Recommendation Framework enables dynamic, AI-driven policy recommendations by evaluating regulatory alert content against configurable policy associations. This helps to enhance impact analysis and improve compliance accuracy. When a regulatory alert is issued, the system generates relevant policy suggestions. After reviewing each recommendation, compliance analysts can accept applicable policies to mark the corresponding business areas as impacted. For example, a regulatory alert related to Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) can prompt recommendations for policies such as Vendor Onboarding Procedures and Incident Response Protocols. After a compliance analyst reviews and accepts these policies, they can mark the relevant business areas as impacted and take steps to help ensure regulatory compliance while managing regulatory tasks.

Procedure

1. Navigate to one of the following locations:

   • Workspaces > Compliance Workspace, select the list icon

-   **Workspaces** > **Compliance Workspace** and select the Regulatory Change Management dashboard icon

1. Select the regulatory alert that you want and review the recommendations by selecting the Recommendations tab.

   Note: If recommendations haven’t already been generated, you can generate recommendations for a regulatory alert in any state except Closed or Cancelled by completing one of the following.

   • On the Overview tab, select Recommend.
   • On the Recommendations tab, select Show recommendations. For more information, see Generate recommendations for regulatory alert impacted citations, control objectives, controls, and policies.

2. Review potential impact areas by selecting the Policies tab in the Recommended areas of the impact section.

   The recommended policies only include policies that are part of the existing inventory.

**Note:** The `Suggest business operations affected by regulatory alert recommendation context` provides the recommendations that you see here. For more information, see [Recommendation contexts and templates](recommendation-contexts.md).

If recommendations are available, you can scroll through the generated list of policies recommendation cards and review the information about each policy, such as its name and compliance status.

1. Select the policies recommendation card that you want and review the following sections:

For full descriptions of these fields, see [Create a control objective](../policy-and-compliance-management/t_CreateAPolicyStatement.md), [Create a policy](../policy-and-compliance-management/t_DefineAPolicy.md), and [Create a control](../policy-and-compliance-management/t_CreateAControl.md).

1. To associate control objectives or risks with your recommendation, navigate to the corresponding tab and select the check box for each record that you want to include as part of the impacted areas.

   Each selected risk will be added as an impacted area after you accept the recommendation.

   Note: The policy you’re reviewing may not have any risks associated with it. Control objectives or risks must be mapped to policies in the inventory for them to appear.

1. View the record for a policy, refresh your recommendations, or review related activity for each recommendation.

1. Accept or dismiss the recommendations and their associations.

   • Select Accept and then Confirm to accept a recommendation as an impacted area.
   • Select Dismiss and then Confirm to avoid a recommendation from being shown again. Before you act on a recommendation, you see a summary of the impact areas and associations that you’re accepting or dismissing.

   If you accept the recommendation, it’s marked as an impacted area and is added to the list of impacts. If you dismiss the recommendation, it’s marked as dismissed and isn't shown again for that specific regulatory alert.

What to do next

If you accepted any recommendations, confirm the creation of an impacted area by navigating to the Impacted areas tab. If you dismissed all recommendations or must add more impacted areas, you can manually add impacted areas. For more information, see Add impacted areas manually to a regulatory alert.
