Why each option

When departments refuse access to equipment for an asset inventory, it represents an active problem that is hindering project progress. This type of current issue requires documenting in an issues log for tracking and resolution.

AChange control form

A change control form is used to request, analyze, and approve changes to an approved project baseline, not to document current operational problems.

BRisk register

A risk register is used to document potential future uncertainties that, if they occur, could impact project objectives, not current problems that have already manifested.

CWork Breakdown Structure (WBS)

The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) decomposes project deliverables into smaller, manageable work packages, and does not serve as a tracking mechanism for project problems.

DIssues logCorrect

An issues log is used to record and track all problems, obstacles, or open questions that arise during a project and require resolution to ensure project success. Refusal of access is a current, active problem impacting the project's ability to proceed, making the issues log the appropriate place to document it for tracking and resolution.
