Learn how to complete a Review risk task in Logiqc.
Reviewing a risk can require you to check whether the risk details, controls, and risk rating still reflect the current situation. Once you sign off the task, the risk returns to the Risk manager so it can progress toward approval.
A risk review confirms whether the description of the risk is still accurate and whether the existing controls remain effective.
Reviewing related adverse events can help you decide whether the organisation's exposure to the risk has changed.
If you have only partly completed the review, you can make a progress note and return to the task later.
Q: What permission do I need?
A: You need Review Governance register items. The minimum licence type required is Action.
Q: Will a progress note complete the task?
A: No. A progress note keeps the task with you in the Review stage until the review is completed.
Q: Where do my comments appear?
A: Review comments appear in Action history so other users can see what was checked or changed.
Before you start
Check the following:
- You have the Review Governance register items permission (minimum licence type required: Action).
- You understand the task instructions assigned by the Risk manager.
- You have checked whether related adverse events or changed controls affect the risk rating.
Step 1: Open the Review risk task
Open the task from your task list or from the notification email.
Navigation path
Select the Description link for your risk. Task type shows as Review.
Read the task instructions before opening the risk details.
The Task type identifies Review, and the Description link opens the assigned item.
Step 2: Review the risk details
Select Go to risk to open the risk details page.
Check that the description, contributing factors, potential consequences, controls, related adverse events, and ratings are still accurate.
Use Go to risk to open the full risk record before checking its details.
Step 3: Complete or progress the task
Return to Task management and choose the option that matches your progress.
Sign off task as complete
Use this when you have completed the review and can record the action taken.
Make a progress note
Use this when some work has been done but the review is not finished.
Add Action taken, Progress note, or Additional Comments as required.
Choose the option that matches your progress on the review.
Step 4: Submit the review task
If the task should create follow-up work in another register, select Create a related item and choose the destination register. After submission, Logiqc creates the related item and links it in System event history.
Select Submit to save the task.
If you signed off the task as complete, the risk moves back to the Risk manager. If you made a progress note, the task remains with you.
The optional related-item checkbox appears above the Submit action at the end of the task.
What happens next
Your notes are recorded
The details you enter become part of Action history for the risk.
The Risk manager reviews the outcome
Completed review tasks return to the Manage stage so the Risk manager can decide what happens next.
The risk can progress
Once review work is complete, the risk can be escalated for approval or scheduled for future review.
