Assign Register Items

Register items consist of risks, opportunities, change orders, and any other qualifiers that your organization has defined. 

Step by Step — Assign a Register Item

  1. Go to the Plan view from the first level drop-down menu in a project, and then select a WBS element.

  2. In the rightmost panel, expand project register, and click Add event. This causes a dialog box to open, showing any currently existing register items. New items can be added by selecting the item type, and typing in the event, cause, and effect.

  3. Click the icon to add the register item to the WBS element. Enter a probability, schedule impact, and cost impact to quantify the event. The available quantifiers are set up by your administrator based on the register item type.

    • An item has now been added to this WBS element.

    When the Register column is in the gantt view there is an indicator on the line, telling other users that the WBS element has register items associated with it.
