PK0-005 Practice Question: Which document contains information such as issue…

Which document contains information such as issue ID, description, owner, priority, status, and resolution date?

⚠ Common exam trap

PK0-005 often tests the difference between the issue log and risk register — candidates confuse current issues with future risks and pick the risk register for issue-tracking fields.

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

✓

Issue log

The issue log is the project document that records and tracks issues, including fields such as issue ID, description, owner, priority, status, and resolution date. It provides a centralized record for monitoring and resolving issues throughout the project lifecycle. This matches the fields listed in the question exactly.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • ✓

    Issue log

    Why this is correct

    An issue log is the register that records each issue's ID, description, owner, priority, status and resolution date, tracking problems through to closure. No other project document captures that specific combination of fields, making it the definitive source for issue tracking.

  • ✗

    Risk register

    Why it's wrong here

    A risk register tracks risk ID, description, owner, likelihood, impact, mitigation and status — not resolution dates for issues. It is tempting because both are living logs with owners and statuses, but the register records potential future risks, whereas the stem's fields describe an issue log recording problems that have already occurred.

  • ✗

    Work breakdown structure

    Why it's wrong here

    A work breakdown structure decomposes project scope into deliverables and work packages; it carries no issue ID, owner, priority, status or resolution date fields. It is tempting because it also tracks project components hierarchically, and would be correct when planning and estimating scope. Here the stem describes an issue log, which records those exact attributes.

  • ✗

    Change log

    Why it's wrong here

    A change log records approved changes, their implementation and rollback details; it does not track issue ID, owner, priority, status and resolution date. That field set belongs to an issue log, which is the correct artefact when tracking defects or incidents through their lifecycle.
