Creating Triggers

For some risks, even though mitigating actions have been put in place, it may be desirable to have a response plan or set of actions prepared in case the risk materialises.  For these situations, you can create Triggers.  Triggers allow you to record actions and procedures in the event a risk is triggered. 

The Triggers TAB is enabled in the maintenance screens by the administrator if this is required.

1. Go to the Home page of the site .

2. Select the organisation unit of the risk/issue from the side menu.

3. Find the risk/issue in the risk list and click on it's title.  You may need to use the vertical scroll bars to see the whole list.

4. When the risk maintenance page appears click on the Triggers tab .

5. Click on the Create Trigger button .

6. Set the Trigger field to the include details of the trigger event.

7. Set the Actions field to describe the actions that will be taken should the event occur.

8. Click the OK button .

9. Repeat steps 5 to 8 for each trigger you wish to create.

10. Click the Submit/Save button .
