Info

You can change the terminology and rename modules. To avoid confusion, check the module icon, which is unalterable.

Use this the Risks module to assess risk probability and consequence, and show your risks on the heat map.

The risks Risks module consists of two main elements:

  • Customizable risk heat map

  • Customizable risk list (register)

The dimensions of the heat map depend on the number of selected options. The default dimension is 5x5, and it is the recommended size because of the coloring of risk levels with the heat map mode enabled.

Any issue type can be displayed on the heat map, but to do so, you need to add the "Risk probability" and "Risk consequence" fields to your issue screens first. You can synchronize your Risks with other fields. To change the field mapping, go to Configuration> Risks (Admin permissions are required).

Info

To use the heat map, i.e., show Jira issues on the heat map and in the register, you need to add both fields to your Jira issue screens and select one of the values.

Info

The Risk level is determined by using two fields, Risk probability, and Risk consequence. By default, the App uses custom fields created during the installation, but you can use your own fields as long as a "Select list (single choice)" type of fields are used.

Info

If you want to adjust the heat map to resemble ROAM, use ROAM as one of the axes and leave just a single option for the other one. Alternatively, you can add a risk score or severity.


You can change the displayed columns of the Risk table.

The main features of this module are described in the table below.

Feature

Description

+ Risk

Add new issues to be displayed on the heat map. Any Jira issue can be presented on the heat map, but we recommend creating a separate issue type to represent the identified risks.

There are three options available:

  • Create new

  • Add existing issue

  • Additionally, the button (Add risk > Manage scope definition) provides direct access to the scope definition page.

Note that although

the Risks

the Risks module is now available also on Boxes with no Scope, it does not allow you to create new risks (the "Add" button is greyed out).

View

Change the view options to include more information on the Risk heat map or show additional features:

Column View

A Box Admin can make changes in the column view without affecting the Box Editor/Viewer view.

To make changes in the column view visible to Box Editors and Box Viewers, a Box Admin needs to click on the “Save changes for all users” button.

Box Editors and Box Viewers can restore previously changed column views to the ones set by a Box Admin.

After adding or removing columns, a Box Admin can click the “Restore columns” button to return to the initial set. Once changes are saved, the “Restore columns” button becomes inactive.
