Risk Matrix

Define a Template for Displaying Risk Values

About This Task

If you have decided to display custom values in the Risk Matrix, you can create a template that will

determine how values will be displayed in individual cells and on the tab labels.

For example, suppose your custom aliases appear in the Risk Matrix like this:

You can see that the risk value in each cell is a combination of the row alias and column alias, without a

delimiter. You can also see that the selected risk value is reflected on the tab label. For instance, at the

intersection of the Probable E row and the Very Low 1 column, you see the value E1, which is also

displayed on the tab label.

You could change this so that the risk values use a delimiter, such as a dash, so you would see E-1 instead

of E1.

Procedure

1.

Access the Risk Matrix record

 for the Risk Matrix for which you want to specify how risk values will be

displayed.

2. In the Risk Matrix Layout datasheet, make sure the Use Maximum Risk Rank and Use Aliases? boxes

are checked.

3. In the Alias Format Mask box, enter a formula that represents the format in which you want risk

values to be displayed, using any combination of the following parameters, with or without delimiters:

• {c}: The alias for the column (specified in the Alias field in the corresponding Consequence record).

• {r}: The alias for the row (specified in the Alias field in the corresponding Probability record).

• {t}: The alias for the risk threshold (specified in the Alias field in the corresponding Risk Threshold

record).

For example, suppose you want risk values to be displayed using the format - alias>. In other words, if the row alias is E and the column alias is 1, you want the risk value will be

displayed as E-1. In this case, you would type the following formula in the Alias Format Mask box:

{r}-{c}
