How to mark a Risk as Solved?

Having Project Risks, besides Learnings and Decisions, is a simple, yet great feature for communication with stakeholders.

 

But, once we have managed to solve (eliminate) a Risk, how should we make it "DONE"?

 

Currently it is only possible to Delete it, which does not seems to be the right thing to do.

 

Probably, there should be a way to mark it "Resolved" just like the "Completed" status for Atlas Project.

Hi @Alexandre Krammel, thanks for the feedback! 

 

I agree, a "Resolved" or "Mitigated" status for risks makes a lot of sense. The good news is that we already have an open ticket for adding this to risks. I can't give you an eta just yet but it's on our radar and the team is looking into it.

Is there an update on when we can expect this?

I just started using Atlas and it feels wrong to delete a risk. I'd love an eta if you have one yet so I know how to proceed.

I am a +1 on this. I would like to see an editable ROAM field that would show up as part of the Risk summary. This would make it easier to know which risks need to be addressed versus those that are mitigated/resolved/accepted.

It would be great if these statuses were customisable.  

Some businesses would be happy with just Open, In-progress and Closed; while others may want to record the mitigation strategy (Transferred, Accepted, Avoid, etc).

An extension would be to link Decisions and Risks so you can link the decisions made to mitigate risk.

 @Nir Nikolaevsky One year later and still nothing. Is this still an open ticket that's being looked at? Also could really use a way to embed risks and decisions in Confluence. Thanks!
