According to ScrumStudy’s SBOK® Guide, the Daily Standup Meeting is the designated forum for the Scrum Team to report daily progress and any impediments. A key question addressed in this meeting is, "What impediments or obstacles, if any, are you facing?" The Scrum Master is explicitly responsible for updating the Impediment Log with any issues raised. This meeting occurs daily throughout the Sprint, concurrent with the Create Deliverables process, making it the primary and most consistent time for formally logging impediments that affect the team's work.

Sprint Review Meetings: The focus is on demonstrating the working product increment to stakeholders and gathering feedback, not primarily on logging internal team impediments.

Release Planning Meetings: This is a high-level planning activity focused on the release schedule and scope; it is not used for managing the detailed, sprint-level Impediment Log.

Sprint Planning Meetings: While potential roadblocks may be identified during planning, the SBOK® Guide explicitly designates the Daily Standup as the process with the updated Impediment Log as a formal output.
