Managing Risks
The risk creation process is managed by a workflow. Therefore only certain profiles are authorized to create, submit, validate or reject a risk.

For more details on the risk creation workflow and associated notification messages, see
Risk Workflow.
Creating risks
To create a risk:
1. Select Risk > Risk Library > Risks > Risks > All Risks.
You obtain the list of all risks.
2. Click the New button.
3. Press key <F2> to modify the Name of the risk.
4. Open the properties page of the risk.
5. Specify the risk Owner responsible for entering information on the risk before submitting it for validation.
Duplicating Risks
Duplicating a risk enables copying of all properties of an existing risk.
To duplicate a risk:
1. In the Risk Library, select Contextualization > List View.
2. Click the risk that you want to duplicate and select Duplicate.
A new risk carrying the same name as the initial risk appears in the list of risks.
The duplicated risk is identical to the original risk: all characteristics and links to repository objects are identical. The action plans are duplicated. Only risk assessments are not duplicated.
Validating a Risk
The steps in the validation process of a new risk are the following:
• Having specified the characteristics of a new risk, the risk creator (who is also the risk owner) can :
• Submit the risk.
The risk manager receives a notification by mail and the new risk appears with status "Submitted".
• When a risk has been submitted, the Risk Manager can:
• Validate the risk, which takes status "Validated".
A notification is sent by mail to the user defined as "Owner".
• Reject the risk.
In this case, the risk takes status "Rejected", but is not deleted.
