Configuring a topic score calculator
Planon provides an option to implement a custom Topic score calculator that will automatically calculate a score. The system will create the Scoring record and fill in the Score field on that record for a single observation or answer line (in a questionnaire).
The solution consists of an API that you can use to develop your own specific topic score calculator(s) via
Platform apps >
App builder TSI, by implementing the interface
ITopicScoreCalculator in a custom calculator app. See
Apps Development for general information on building apps on the Planon platform.
The Scoring method defines which fields will be available for the calculator.
Useful facts:
• It is possible to use free fields for all types of scoring methods, to calculate a score.
• Based on the Matrix scoring method, Planon provides a 'system calculator', which can calculate a topic score based on severity and likelihood, but you can also implement a custom matrix-based calculator.
• For the Technical condition scoring method, you can chose to implement a calculator that add a score based on the severity, intensity and extent percentage.
