Risk Ranking Logic

FMEA > RPNs

The FMEA > RPNs page of the interface style allows you to customize properties and functionality related RPNs and related metrics for failure causes in an FMEA. (To configure the Item Risk metrics for items in the system hierarchy, use the Item > Properties page instead.)

RPN Properties and Metrics

The table at the top of the page works like the other record properties tables except:

Priority Highlights

The options under the table allow you to configure the logic that will be employed when a user turns on the priority highlights feature (FMEA > Tools > Highlight Priority) for FMEAs within the project.

In the Highlight Priority Based on area, the options will depend on which ratings and metrics have been enabled in the properties table. For example, if you have disabled the Initial RPN and Revised RPN properties, you can't choose to highlight based on RPN.)

If you select RPN, Severity, Occurrence or Detection, you can specify the High Priority >= and Low Priority <= thresholds and Select Highlight Colors.

For example, with the settings shown below:

 

Risk Ranking Logic

If you want to define more complex criteria to assign priority, click the Risk Ranking Logic button.

This logic can be used for Priority Highlights in FMEAs if you select "Risk Ranking" under Highlight Priority Based on. It can also be used for assigning Item Risk in the system hierarchy and for applying highlight colors in the Risk Matrix. For more details, see Risk Ranking Logic.
