Assign Tasks to Mitigation or Response Plan

As part of mitigation planning, tasks that represent mitigation activities with planned finish times and costs are added to a plan. You assign these activities, including summary tasks, to a mitigation or response plan. In this case cost, actual cost and percent completed of the plan will be calculated based on costs and percent completed of the task. If Monte Carlo simulations are conducted, the cost of a mitigation plan will equal the mean of the task cost. If simulations are not conducted, the cost of a plan equals the original (deterministic) task cost.

The dates of mitigation plan execution shown in Mitigation tab of task information dialog are not associated with the task and should be defined by user. The task associated with mitigation plans will be shown in the risk report. If the plan is associated with a task cost, actual cost, and percent completed of the plan is read only.

To assign a task to a mitigation or response plan:

1. Double click on the Mitigation or Response plan id; the Mitigation or Response Plan dialog box opens
2. From the list of tasks, select the task that you want to link to the plan. Only one task can be selected.
3. To reset selection of the task, click Clear task selection.
