Overview
Use this page to add, modify, or delete project risks.
Note: If the Probability, Schedule, and Cost fields are disabled, a risk scoring matrix is not assigned to the current project. You can still enter risk data on this page; however, a risk scoring matrix must be assigned to a project to perform qualitative risk analysis.

Open: The risk is approved as a valid risk to the project.

Managed (Closed): The risk occurred and was successfully managed by the project team and is no longer an active risk. The data for this risk cannot be modified once it is closed.
Impacted (Closed): The risk occurred, impacted the project and is no longer an active risk. The data for this risk cannot be modified once it is closed.
