14A large enterprise with over 10,000 users and 50,000 active incidents has been using ServiceNow for two years. Recently, the IT managers have noticed that the incident form loads very slowly for end users, especially when opening existing records. The form contains over 40 fields including several reference fields like 'Configuration Item', 'Assignment group', and 'Assigned to'. The system administrator suspects that the form is slow due to the number of fields and the way they are loaded. Additionally, the admin wants to improve the user experience by reducing clutter. The admin is considering several approaches: (A) removing fields from the default view to reduce the number of fields loaded, (B) enabling 'Form Layout Personalization' so users can hide fields they don't need, (C) creating a new view with fewer fields and assigning it to all users via a UI policy based on role, (D) using 'Form Sections' to collapse fields into tabs. Which approach is the most effective for improving form load performance while maintaining usability?
15A user reports that the 'My Work' module is missing from the application navigator. The administrator has assigned the user the 'sn_hr_core.hr_case_agent' role. Which step should the administrator take to troubleshoot this issue?
16A ServiceNow administrator wants to create a new form section that appears only when the 'State' field is set to 'In Progress'. Which configuration should be used?
17An administrator needs to provide a custom view for the Incident table that hides the 'Description' field and reorders fields for a specific group of users. The view should be accessible from the form context menu. Which approach should the administrator take?
18Which TWO actions can an administrator perform using the 'Application Navigator' module (sys_app_module)? (Choose two.)
19Which THREE of the following are valid ways to customize the form layout for a table in ServiceNow? (Choose three.)
20A company recently upgraded their ServiceNow instance from Paris to Quebec. After the upgrade, several users report that the 'Assignment Group' field on the Incident form is missing for users with the 'itil' role. The field is still visible for administrators. The administrator checks the dictionary entry for the 'assignment_group' field and finds that it has no roles set. The form layout for the 'Default view' includes the field. The UI Policy that previously controlled visibility of this field has been deactivated. An audit of the upgrade logs shows no errors related to this field. The administrator suspects that a new feature introduced in Quebec might have affected the field visibility. Which action should the administrator take to restore the field visibility for 'itil' users?

36Which two statements about UI Policies are true? (Choose two.)
37Refer to the exhibit. A UI Policy is configured with the above condition script to make the 'work_notes' field mandatory when state is 1 and caller_id is valid. When the state is 1 and caller_id is empty, the mandatory attribute is not applied. What is the cause?
38Refer to the exhibit. A business rule has this script and is set to run on 'before insert' and 'before query'. When a user creates a new incident and sets the assignment_group to 'Network', after saving the assignment_group displays 'Help Desk'. What is the most likely cause?
39Refer to the exhibit. A UI Policy is configured with the above condition to make the 'resolution_notes' field mandatory when the variable 'state' is 2. When state is set to 2, the field is still not mandatory. What is the most likely issue?
40A company wants to display a custom field on the incident form only when the incident state is 'In Progress'. Which configuration should be used?
41A user reports that the 'My Tasks' module they frequently use has disappeared from the left navigation. Other users can still see it. What is the most likely cause?

81Refer to the exhibit. An administrator imports these system properties into a ServiceNow instance. After the import, what is the expected impact on the UI?
82A large organization with 15,000 active users recently migrated from UI15 to UI16. Users are now reporting that form load times have increased significantly, especially on the Incident form, which has many sections and fields. The system administrator notices that the form is taking over 8 seconds to load. The administrator has checked the server logs and found that the majority of time is spent on 'getFormMeta' calls. The Incident form uses several UI policies, client scripts, and catalog client scripts. There are no business rules with heavy scripts on the table. Which course of action should the administrator take to improve form load performance?
83A system administrator has added new fields to the Incident table through the dictionary. Users report that they cannot see these fields when they open an incident record. The administrator confirms the fields exist and are correctly configured. What should the administrator check first?
84A project manager wants all incident forms to display a static informational message at the top for all users without any conditions. Which method is most efficient and requires the least ongoing maintenance?
85Which three of the following are valid methods to control field visibility on a form based on user input? (Choose three.)
86A large enterprise has extensively customized the Incident table with many UI Policies and Client Scripts. After a recent upgrade, users report that the incident form takes significantly longer to load, especially on records with many fields. The administrator investigates and discovers that multiple UI Policies share the same condition but are defined separately, causing the condition to be evaluated multiple times. Additionally, there are several client scripts that also evaluate the same conditions. The administrator wants to reduce page load time without altering the functionality. The instance is running on a mid-sized deployment with no budget for hardware scaling in the near term. Which course of action will best address the performance issue?
87A new ServiceNow administrator is tasked with setting up a dashboard for the IT help desk. The team wants to see a list of their assigned open incidents and a pie chart showing incident priority. The administrator creates two separate reports: a list report for open incidents and a pie chart for priority. Then, the administrator creates a new dashboard and adds both reports to it. However, the dashboard displays the reports in a single column, stacked vertically. The team wants the reports to appear side by side for a better overview. The administrator is unsure how to achieve this layout without rebuilding everything. What should the administrator do?
88A system administrator has created a UI Policy to make several fields mandatory on the incident form when the 'Category' field equals 'Software'. The policy works correctly when creating a new incident: if the user selects 'Software', the fields become mandatory. However, when viewing an existing incident and changing the category to 'Software', the fields do not become mandatory. The administrator verifies that the condition is correctly set to 'Category equals Software' and the action sets mandatory true on the target fields. The UI Policy is active and the order is not relevant. What is the most likely reason for this behavior?
89A company uses a custom application with a table named 'project_task' that contains several reference fields pointing to large tables (e.g., 'User', 'Department'). Users report that the 'project_task' form takes over 10 seconds to load, primarily due to the time required to fetch options for these reference fields. The administrator wants to improve the form loading performance without removing any fields or changing the user workflow. The instance is on a standard license and performance optimization is a priority. Which approach should the administrator take?
90A user reports that a custom UI Action button labeled 'Escalate' has disappeared from the incident form after a recent upgrade. The administrator checks the UI Action record and confirms that it is active, has no conditions defined, and is associated with the Incident table. The UI Action is set to appear in the context menu and form button. The administrator also confirms that no UI Policies or client scripts are hiding it. What should the administrator check next to resolve the issue?
91A company uses a customized service catalog form. Recently, after a patch application, several catalog variables that were configured as drop-downs (choice fields) are now displaying as plain text fields on the order form. The administrator checks the variable definitions in the catalog item and confirms that they are still set to 'Choice' type and that the choice list values are intact. The catalog form is using the default 'Order' view. No UI Policies or client scripts are modifying the variable types on the form. What is the most likely cause and resolution?
92A ServiceNow administrator needs to create a form section that is only visible to users with the 'itil' role. Which TWO configuration options can achieve this? (Choose two.)
93Refer to the exhibit. A user reports that the category field is not becoming mandatory on the incident form even when priority is set to '3' and the system property 'myapp.high_priority' is set to 'true'. What is the most likely cause?
94A ServiceNow administrator at a large enterprise is troubleshooting an issue with the incident form. A custom form section titled 'Sensitive Data' should only be visible to users with the 'security_admin' role. The administrator created a UI Policy with the condition g_user.hasRole('security_admin') and an action that sets the 'Sensitive Data' section's visible attribute to true. The UI Policy is active and set to run on load. However, users with the 'security_admin' role report that they do not see the section. The administrator verified that the section is configured with a 'Visible' condition that is blank, and the section's 'Roles' field is empty. What is the most likely reason the section is not showing?
