Adding a user to the Risk Register

Roles and permissions

The following roles can add a user to the Risk Register:

  • Administrators who are members of the Risk Register

  • Compliance managers with manager permissions and who are members of the Risk Register

  • Users with manager permissions and who are members of the Risk Register

  • Limited access users with manager permissions and who are members of the Risk Register

After you’ve created your Risk Register, you can add team members and assign them work. You can choose to add them to a single risk OR to the entire Risk Register.

Note

You can add users from outside your company, external users, to your Hyperproof organization by inviting them to your organization from Settings > People.

    • A square in the checkbox indicates that the user or group has object permissions for some of the selected risks.
