# Manage Run At Risk Materials

:lock: Resource.**ManageRunAtRiskMaterials**

## Overview

This operation manages Run at Risk Materials, allowing **Materials** to be processed even when they are flagged as "at risk". The operation can be executed regardless of the **Resource** state. It is permitted when the **Resource** is Down or Down for Maintenance, and it does not require the **Resource** or any associated qualification items (**Service**, **Recipe**, or Sub-Resource) to be qualified.

## Setup

No specific setup is required other than to meet the precondition of the transaction.

## Preconditions

* The **Resource** must be Active and Non-Template.
*	The Processing Type of the **Resource** must be Process or Line.
* At least one of the following properties must be true for the **Resource**:
    * **Qualification Check** is set.
    * Enable Sub-Resource Qualifications is `true`.
    * At least one of its **Services** has a **Qualification Check** set.
    * At least one of its **Recipes** has a **Qualification Check** set.
* The **Material** exists, is Active and Non-Template.
* The combination of **Material**, **Step**, **Flow**, Flow Path, and Logical Path must be unique.

## Sequence of Steps

    * **Material** - select the desired **Material**.
    * **Selection Mode** - choose one of the following options:

        * **Flow Path** - select the **Flow** and **Step**, using the original entity names.
