Risk Discovery

Using Ratings

If the project is configured to use ratings for Risk Discovery analysis, you can assign ratings for a variety of different factors and then calculate an overall item criticality value for each item or piece of equipment.

The categories, factors and rating scale options will depend on the configurable settings for the current project. To view or change the settings, choose Project > Management > Configurable Settings > RD Ratings. (In a secure database, this is only available for users with the "Edit project properties" permission.)

When you select a rating for each factor, the software calculates a Category Rating for each category and an Overall Rating for the item. New in Version 11, the calculation method can use the product, sum, max or average. (See Risk Discovery Ratings.)

If desired, use the Comments field to provide any additional information that is relevant to your ratings (up to 255 characters per factor). Click anywhere in the field to display the Select Existing icon. This icon opens the Select Existing Text window that allows you to choose comments used in other data sources.

Showing Results in the System Panel

In the System panel, if the Risk Discovery Details column has been selected for display on your computer, then it will display the calculated value of the overall rating used in the analysis. Higher values indicate greater risk. Additionally, if the Mark item for more detailed analysis check box is selected, then the Risk Discovery icon will display in red.

Generating a Report

To generate a report of the Risk Discovery data, choose Home > Reporting > Reports.

In the Reports window, select any of the predefined report forms under the Risk Discovery heading.
