Each link is described below.

These dropdown menus determine when and how various options are presented to users:

This dropdown allows you to nominate an issue link type that defines how treatments are connected to risks. When this relationship is defined, treatments will appear beneath risks on the risk register page (see Viewing Risk Registers and Matrices). If you leave the field blank, then treatments will not appear on the risk register page.
Risk matrix appearance
This collection of options allows you to control the risk matrix appearance. The Color of empty cells option determines whether empty cells on the risk matrix are filled with gray or with the appropriate risk color. The Orientation option determines whether Impact or Probability is on the horizontal or vertical axis. Click the Flip button to swap the axes.
ENABLEMENT Old releases had an option to "enable" risk management. With the current release, users no longer explicitly enable risk management, neither at the app level nor at the project level. Whereas enabling risk management for a project previously generated an 'implicit' risk register, that is no longer the case. Instead, you explicitly create the risk registers that you want. For customers using the older version, any implicit risk registers were converted to explicit risk registers for any projects that had risk management enabled at the project level (overriding the app settings), or which contained one or more risks. |

This page defines the risk model used to assess the level of risk for each risk you create. The model is in the form of a matrix. The axes are Impact and Probability, while the cells define the level of risk. You can adjust the level of risk for a cell by selecting the drop-down box inside it.
There are three tabs beneath the matrix, defining Impacts, Probabilities, and Levels of risk.
...
Risk impact defines the degree to which a project, product, or organization would be affected if a particular risk was realized. This list defines the impact options available, and usually contains values such as Low, Medium, High, etc. This controls what impact options are presented on the risk issue when you are assessing a risk (see Creating and Assessing Risks). When you adjust this list, the system automatically adjusts the matrix at the top of the page. Using the links supplied, you can add, remove, or rename the impacts.
Probabilities
Risk probability defines the likelihood of a particular risk being realized. This list defines the probability options available, and usually contains values such as Likely, Unlikely, etc. This controls what probability options are presented on the risk issue when you are assessing a risk (see Creating and Assessing Risks). When you adjust this list, the system automatically adjusts the matrix at the top of the page. Using the links supplied, you can add, remove, or rename the probabilities.
Levels of risk
Level of risk is calculated on the risk matrix using the impact and probability of the risk. This list defines the levels of risk available, and usually contains values such as Low, Medium, High, etc. This controls what options are presented in the cells on the risk model above. Using the links supplied, you can add, remove, or rename the levels of risk.
