Re-Assessing, and Accepting Risk

Additional Functionality on the Item by Status page:

  1. Re-assessing questions: The last answer that was received for an item during an assessment can be viewed, and changed with updated information (description, photo, recommendation) if necessary if an event occurred that changes this statements answer.

 

  1. Accepting Risk: for specific deficiencies/items, these can be “accepted,” where no action will be taken for that specific question. Essentially, the risk is known, but nothing will be done to remediate this.

    1. However, when accepting a particular risk, a justification will need to be provided as to why this is being accepted, for history and compliance tracking purposes.
