In ServiceNow, access to applications is controlled byroles. Most applications, such asIncident, Change, and Facilities, require specific roles to access them. However, theSelf-Serviceapplication is available to all users, including those with the base"ess" (Employee Self-Service)role, which is assigned to every user by default.
Why "D. Self-Service" is the correct answer?TheSelf-Serviceapplication is designed for general users (end users, employees, customers) who do not have elevated permissions. It provides access to:
TheService Catalog(to request IT services, software, and hardware).
TheKnowledge Base(to search for articles and solutions).
Viewing and tracking submitted requests and incidents.
Submitting new incidents or requests.
Since it is meant forall users, it does not require any additional roles beyond the default ones given to employees or customers.
A. Change– Incorrect. TheChange Managementapplication is typically restricted toITIL users(users with theitilrole) and change managers. End users do not have access to this module.
B. Incident– Incorrect. While end users can create and view their own incidents viaSelf-Service, theIncident Managementmodule itself is restricted to IT support staff (users with theitilrole or higher).
C. Facilities– Incorrect. TheFacilitiesapplication, which includes asset tracking and work orders, is typically restricted to users managing physical assets or facility-related tasks. It is not available to all users by default.
