Why each option
The issue log and status report are living project documents that must be continuously updated throughout the project as new events, issues, and status changes occur.
A change request is a formal document submitted to initiate a specific change; it is created and then processed, not continuously updated as general project events occur.
The risk register is updated when risks are identified or their probability and impact change, but it is a planning artifact tied to risk events rather than a document updated in response to general ongoing project events.
Meeting minutes are a static record created once after a specific meeting concludes; they are not updated continuously as project events occur.
The issue log is a dynamic document used to record, track, and manage issues as they arise during the project, and it must be updated in real time as new issues are identified and existing ones are resolved.
The status report is a periodic communication document updated as project events occur to reflect current progress, schedule performance, risks, and any notable changes against the project plan.
