How do you manage risks in Planner?
Hi All,
I tried searching, but couldn't find anything on how to manage risks in Planner. Any ideas or guides out there? Thanks.

I really wonder who are the product managers for something like Planner and how much resource does MS really dedicate to these apps. Same with MS Loop. Loop could be amazing. Planner could be amazing...but the development of them isnt great.
They certainly dont consult real world project managers in the product development process. Who is writing the user stories?Its pretty infuriating to be honest! but its not just Planner. Tracking risk in Monday, Asana, Basecamp etc is really weak. Nothing beats Excel
ProjectWiz There is no out-of-the-box feature in the planner to manage the risks. You can try this
In Planner, make each risk a task, group them in buckets by priority (High/Med/Low), use labels for type, and put mitigation steps in the task’s checklist.
Please like and mark it as resolved if it answers your question.
Wow, very unfortunate. Yes, this is what I have been doing, but I do not like it at all. It clutters my IMS, and I have to create tons of custom fields for scoring. This is PM 101, and there is no out-of-the-box feature.
