4.1 Using the Dashboard
- Open Dashboard from the sidebar Main section.
- Review the summary cards: Open, In Progress, Closed, Critical count, and average risk age.
- Use the portfolio filters in the top bar to scope every widget to a business or project.
- Click a cell on the inherent risk heat map to drill down to the matching risks.
- Review the severity, status, and priority charts below the heat map.
- Use the latest-risks table tabs (Latest, Assigned to me, Overdue, and more) to jump to items.
- Click Print dashboard, when available, for a print-friendly layout.
4.2 Risk Rating Page
Open Analysis → Risk Rating. The inherent and residual matrices appear side by side. Residual ratings use explicit potential likelihood and impact when these are set; otherwise they are derived from control effectiveness. Click matrix cells or risk names to open details.
4.3 Matrix Priority
Matrix priority (Critical, Major, Moderate, Low) is calculated from Likelihood × Impact using the scales configured under Settings → Likelihood Scale and Consequence Scale. Custom priorities defined in Settings are organizational labels stored for future use and are separate from matrix priority.
4.4 Print and Export from Analytics
- Dashboard — click Print dashboard, when available, for a print-friendly layout without navigation chrome.
- Compliance Dashboard — use the print action to capture posture summaries for audit packs.
- Risk Rating — use browser print (Ctrl+P) to snapshot the matrices; portfolio filters apply to the displayed risks.
- Report Builder — export filtered datasets to CSV for Excel, Power BI, or archival (see Section 7).
