Brazil	- Budget Overrun insight card Identify portfolio plans at risk of exceeding their approved budget with the new Budget Overrun insight card in Portfolio Insights. The card compares each planning item's current fiscal year forecast against its approved budget and flags items where the forecast is higher. Flagged items include a root cause analysis — grouped by cost type and driven by factors such as rate changes, effort overruns, or foreign exchange impact — along with recommended actions like re-forecasting with finance or initiating change control. - Cost Variance insight card Identify cost plans whose actual spend is running over or under plan for the current fiscal period with the new Cost Variance insight card in Portfolio Insights. The card flags cost plans where the variance between actual and planned costs exceeds a configurable threshold, in either direction, and groups the root causes by driver — such as rate-driven, effort or hours overrun, or actuals below plan — along with recommended next steps for each. - [Copy and customize the demand summarization skill](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=clone-customize-the-demand-summarization-skill-ppm&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) Tailor demand summaries to your organization's process by copying the base demand summarization skill and customizing it with your own input fields, related entities, and prompt.

Only one version of the skill can be active at a time. - [Work with demands in Employee Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=my-demands-widget-ppm&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) Create and track demands without leaving the conversation-first Employee Slate workspace. Describe the demand in a conversation to have matching catalog items identified and relevant fields prepopulated from your message, then track its status, activity, and progress using the new My Demands widget on your canvas or the standard Requests widget. Demands appear in Employee Slate only when both Project Workspace and Employee Slate Core apps are installed.

Brazil	- Portfolio Insights card order The AI Insights panel now displays insight cards in a fixed order based on prominence and impact: Projects at risk, Budget Overrun, Cost Variance, Items past planned end date, Delayed start, and Planned versus approved misalignment. Review the most critical financial and schedule risks first. - Insight explanations in Portfolio Insights Each card in Portfolio Insights now includes an info icon. Select the icon to open a popover with a plain-language explanation of what the insight measures and how it's calculated, so you can interpret the insight without leaving the panel. - [Navigation to Project Workspace in Next Experience](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=t_CreateAProject&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) View and access Project Workspace in Next Experience when you access project workspace from the All navigation menu. - [Summarize demands with the demand summarization skill](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=demand-summary-demand-classic&family=brazil&ft:locale=en-US) The default trigger is not set to Automatic for demands in any state.
