# Populate global rank for high-level planning items

To enable high-level planning on a table that is not a planning item in Strategic Planning Workspace, populate global rank for existing records of this table.

## Before you begin

[Enable high-level planning for a lens entity](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-business-management/scenario-planning-in-spw/enable-high-level-planning-for-lens-entity.md).

Role required: admin

## About this task

Use the Strategic Planning diagnostics module to populate global rank for all existing records of the table that your planning managers chose for high-level planning. Completing this task would generate a value for the Global rank field of your table.

For this task, consider the example of generating a rank value for all existing records of the Strategic Priority \[sn\_gf\_strategy\] table.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Strategic Planning** > **Diagnostics**.

2.  Run the Identify the high-level entities enabled for planning, without a global rank diagnostic script by selecting **Run Diagnosis**.

    The diagnosis would fail and show you the type and the total number of records that are missing a global rank.

3.  Select **Run fix script** to populate global rank value for all the flagged records.

    You can verify that the rank is populated by running the diagnostic script again. You would see that the diagnosis is a success.


## What to do next

Create a business rule to populate global rank on any future records create on your high-level planning table. See [Create a business rule for high-level planning](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-business-management/scenario-planning-in-spw/create-a-business-rule-for-high-level-planning.md).
