    About this task

    AI analyzes project data to identify potential risks and presents them for project manager review. AI-suggested risks are generated as part of the project insights cadence and appear in the AI Identified Risks menu for project managers to accept or reject. AI generates risks by analyzing data from project insights, resources, financials, and milestones.

    If no risks are identified during generation or regeneration, the AI Identified Risks page displays an empty state where you can generate risks again as project evolves.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to Workspaces > Project Workspace.
    2. From Project Workspace, Create a project or open an existing project.
    3. Select AI Identified Risks from the navigation menu.
    4. Review the AI-suggested risks in the list and perform one of these actions:
      • Regenerate: When you select regenerate option, the risk is generated again and added to the AI identified risks list. AI-generated risks appear in AI draft state.
      • Accept: When you accept a risk, the approved risk appear in the RIDAC list and its state moves from AI Draft to Pending.
      • Reject: When you reject a risk, the rejected risk is removed or hided from the AI identified risks list and its state moves to Closed skipped.
    5. Optional: Select Generate AI Risks if no risks are identified for the project.
