Contingency Plan popup

The Contingency Plan popup allows the user to describe and plan out the Contingency Plan to be executed to respond to a Risk(s) that materializes.

The upper part of the dialog box provides the following statistics regarding the Contingency Items and Actions.

  • Number of open Contingency Items

  • Number of completed Contingency Items

  • Number of open Contingency Actions

  • Number of completed Contingency Actions

In the Description Rich text field, the user can enter a precise description of the Contingency Plan.
