The solution supports creating one or multiple risk mitigations to each risk. Mitigations can be created from within the Risk Register or directly in the Issue View. Important: The first mitigation must be created by a Jira admin. This is because the issue link type (is mitigated by / mitigate) is created which require admin permission. A Risk mitigation is either a subtask to an issue or a linked issue with a specific type.

2. Create Mitigations from Issue View
Mitigations are linked Jira issues. So you can either create a new mitigation by linking with the type “is mitigated by“ from the risk. Or linking from the mitigation directly to the risk with the type “mitigate“
Important: The link types “is mitigated by“ and “mitigate“ are created first time creating a mitigation in the the Risk Register. So please do that if the link types are not found.
