At Risk Reporting

How At Risk Reporting flags projects or tasks in danger of missing targets.

Purpose

This article explains At Risk Reporting, which flags projects or tasks in danger of missing deadlines or budget targets.

Who Uses This

Project managers and executives who need early warning of potential problems.

How It Works

At Risk Reporting automatically flags items — tasks, deliverables, milestones, or budgets — that are trending off track based on current data.

Drill into a flagged item to see why it's at risk and what's driving the issue (e.g., a delayed dependency or budget overage).

Best Practices

  • Check At Risk Reporting regularly rather than waiting for scheduled report reviews.

  • Address flagged items early — the earlier a risk is caught, the easier it is to correct.

  • Use alongside Critical Path and Budget Tracking to understand root causes.

Troubleshooting

If something seems incorrectly flagged as at risk, check for outdated task or budget data that may need updating.
