RISK MANAGEMENT NEWS

More options for Practitioners submitting risks

Starting with this release, the submitter of a risk can themselves suggest the responsible and the advisor for the risk. The submitter is suggested as responsible as well as advisor when submitting a risk. They can, however, change this to another user. This option is available to them until the first time they click Save or they submit the risk, after which no more changes are possible.

Until the risk is submitted, it is in the new state “Submission pending” and is only visible for the responsible and the advisor. In this state it is also marked with a badge so it cannot be overlooked and forgotten.

Another innovation is that the responsible is also more involved in the entire process. If, for example, a review of a risk was requested, the responsible can at this time change the advisor. If they do so, the previous as well as the new advisor are informed of the change. They cannot dodge their own responsibility. Furthermore, the advisor cannot give away their responsibility themselves, the need to contact the responsible or an Expert/Professional for this.

Innovations in the structural analysis

The structural analysis in the risk management was expanded by the following comfort features:

• First, you can now also change the view by using the radio buttons next to the options of the main views. The trusted double click also still works.
• Second, link buttons were introduced, with which you can jump from the structural analysis to the index pages of the respective main views, meaning to organizational units, resources, data categories, and processes.

Risk management KPI expansions

The following KPIs were expanded by options with which to configure whether they consider only risks, only opportunities, or both in their evaluations.

• Active risks/opportunities and their treatment
• Risks/opportunities by category
• Risks/opportunities by state
• Risk matrix
• Top risks/opportunities

For this, checkboxes were implemented in the filter which allow you to make that selection.

Filter and sort risks by protection targets

There is an additional, new evaluation option for risks and opportunities, where you can display their protection targets in the overview. You can also filter and sort by them. With this, it is now possible to compare risks and opportunities on the level of protection targets.

Filter and sort risks by monetary impact

Another comfort function in the overview of risks and opportunities is the new option to filter and sort them by their monetary impact. Here, we additionally added a summation so you may have your eye on the entirety of the monetary impact at once.

SOA report now includes documents

The risk management report “Statement of applicability” which can be found under Risk management > Reports > Standards and norms > Statement of applicability was expanded by the report option “linked documents”. This option is only available if you have licensed and activated the Doc management Add-on for your user. It allows you to list the documents that are linked to the various standard chapters in the report. This is done in the form of file names next to the respective chapters.
