Rejecting a proposed risk
Roles and permissions
The following roles can evaluate risks:
Anyone with manager permissions for the assessment
Anyone with manager permissions on the evaluation
Anyone can add a proposed risk to the risk intake register using the intake survey. If you have a Hyperproof login and the correct permissions, you can add proposed risks directly to the risk intake register without needing to complete the intake survey.
When your organization is ready to evaluate proposed risks, you can add them to an assessment, and an evaluation record is created for each proposed risk. See Adding proposed risks to an assessment for evaluation. During the evaluation process, you may determine that a proposed risk is not considered a risk for your organization.
If the proposed risk should be approved and promoted to a risk, see Evaluating proposed risks.
To reject the risk and close the record, do the following:
From the left menu, select Assessments.
Select your assessment.
Select the Evaluations tab.
A list of evaluations is displayed.

Click the name of the proposed risk displayed next to the status field.
The Risk intake register displays the list of proposed risks.
Select the checkbox for the proposed risk being rejected.
