Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Impediments are the rocks in the trail—if nobody writes them down, they keep tripping people. The impediment log makes blockers visible so the Scrum Master role can help clear them. It is not a construction payment schedule.
Full Explanation
An impediment log (or equivalent tracker) records obstacles that slow the team so they can be addressed transparently. Maintaining it is a common adaptive control practice associated with the Scrum Master accountability. It is not a capital milestone schedule, roadmap substitute, or Definition of Ready scoring sheet.
