# Manage program issues

While your organisation likely has a more specific definition of issues, an **issue** is generally defined as something that has occurred and needs active management to control the overall impact that it will have on the program.

The key to ensuring that an issue is resolved, is assigning it to a responsible individual and actively managing the issue for closure based on a due date.

  
To manage program issues:

 **Create new issue**

1.  Ensure you have the appropriate program open in **Portfolios.**  
     
2.  Click the **Issues** tab.  
     
3.  Click **+New Issue.**  
     
4.  Fill in the **Name** field.  
      
    **Important:** It is mandatory and should be clear and concise to help users identify the issue in screens, reports, and dashboards. Ensure that the **Assigned To** and **Due Date** fields are never blank for efficient tracking and reporting.   
     
5.  Provide additional details in the remaining fields.  
     
6.  Click **Save and Close.**  
     

**Update issues**

1.  Ensure you have the appropriate program open in **Portfolios.**  
     
2.  Click the **Issues** tab.  
     
3.  Click on the **Issue** to be updated from the list.  
     
4.  Update any field, as required.  
     
5.  Click **Save & Close.**
