# Create an event for the scenario

Create an event in the Operational Resilience application so that you can associate it with a scenario and assess its impact on your services.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_oper\_res.admin

## About this task

If you have the sn\_oper\_res.admin role, you can create an event in the Operational Resilience application. An event can be something like flooding or a power outage. You can classify the events that are of a similar type under an event group.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Operational Resilience** > **Admin** > **Events**.

2.  Click **New**.

3.  In the **Name** field, enter the name for the event.

4.  In the **Description** field, enter the description for the event.

5.  In the **Event group** field, select an event group.

    For a description of the field values in the form, see [Event record form](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/governance-risk-compliance/event-reference.md).

    **Note:** You can add an event to many scenarios, but you can add an event to a scenario only once.

6.  Click **Submit**.

    You can classify an event under an event group as shown in the following example.
