What Related Risks Are For #
Relating risks records that they are connected, for example because they share a cause or a control. Unlike a risk flow, a relation has no direction of impact; it simply links the risks so you can move between them and see them together.
Opening the Related Risks Tab #
Open the risk from the Risk Registers dashboard. In the lower panel, select the Related Risks tab. Related To lists the risks you have linked from this risk. Related From lists risks that have linked to this one.

Linking Related Risks #
Select the link icon at the top right of the Related To grid.

A list of risks opens. Select each risk you want to relate; selected rows are highlighted in blue. Then select the blue tick at the top right.

The risks show in the Related To grid. Select Save at the top right, or the pencil to save and stay on the risk. The links are not kept until you save.

To remove a relation, select the three dots at the end of its row, remove it and save.
Viewing the Relationships #
Select the Relationships tab in the top right panel of the risk. It shows a connection graph of everything linked to the risk: related risks, controls and incidents. Hover over a point to see its name.
