Risk Adviser Dialog Box

Use this dialog box to select the criteria that the Risk Adviser uses to suggest uncertainty.

Mode

Field/Option	Description
Schedule Quality - Fuse Schedule Index	This option presents uncertainty assignments based on the Fuse Schedule Index score for each activity and activity grouping. By default, a score of lower than 10% will warrant a Very Aggressive assignment. Conversely, a score of greater than 75% will lead to a conservative uncertainty assignment.
Historical Performance (Baseline vs Current)	This mode compares the baseline plan to the current schedule and looks for discrepancies. The greater the variance between the two, the more aggressive that activity will be flagged.
Metric	Select any Acumen metric to use as the basis for uncertainty assignments.
Field	Select any field from the project to use as the basis for uncertainty assignments.

Target

Specify whether you want summaries and normal activities or summaries only for the selected metric. These options only display when you select Metric mode.

Formula

Specify whether you want to use the primary or secondary formula for the selected metric. These options only display when you select Metric mode.

Suggestions

These are the default suggested values and associated uncertainties that you can modify and then apply to the activities. Use this grid to set the uncertainty values or ranges that you want to use related to the risk analysis activity score. For example, if you set <40% Aggressive, then you are specifying that any activity that scores less than 40% has an aggressive uncertainty.
