PMI Project-Management-Professional PMP Question # 323 Topic 35 Discussion

 An issue is a point or matter in question or in dispute, or a point or matter that is not settled and is under discussion or over which there are opposing views or disagreements. An issue log is a project document that provides a mechanism for recording and communicating issues that arise during a project. It also helps to monitor their resolution. According to the PMBOK Guide, the first step in managing issues is to identify and document them in the issue log. The issue log should include information such as issue description, type, priority, owner, due date, status, and resolution. Updating the issue log will help the project manager to track and resolve the issue of the government-owned area, and communicate it to the relevant stakeholders. Identifying an alternative site, issuing a change request, or updating the risk register are possible actions that may be taken after the issue is documented and analyzed, depending on the impact and urgency of the issue. References: : PMBOK Guide, 6th edition, page 89 : PMBOK Guide, 6th edition, page 558 : PMP Sample Test Questions
