9.5.4.1. Add Risk to Quality Event

In the Add Risk to Quality Event form, users can create a new associated risk.

*For guidance on common form functions, please refer to the dedicated section in the manual.

1. Name: This is a text field that allows users to input a name for the risk. It is a mandatory field.
2. Description: This is a rich text field that allows users to provide a description of the risk.
3. Impact: This is a single-select dropdown field that retrieves the list of impact levels from EPC. It is a mandatory field. It allows users to specify the impact level of the identified risk.
   • Impact Levels: Very Low, Low, Medium, High, Very High.
4. Probability: This is a single-select dropdown field that retrieves the list of probability levels from EPC. It is a mandatory field. It allows users to specify the probability or likelihood of the identified risk occurring.
   • Probability Levels: Very Low, Low, Medium, High, Very High.
5. Detectability: This is a single-select dropdown field that retrieves the list of detectability levels from EPC. It is a mandatory field. It allows users to specify the degree to which the identified risk can be detected.
   • Detectability Levels: Very Easily Detectable, Easily Detectable, Moderately Detectable, Hard to Detect, Very Hard to Detect.
6. Score: This field is automatically populated with the score once the impact, probability, and detectability levels have all been selected.
   • For more information on how the score is calculated, click here.
7. Add to EPC: This is a single-select field that displays the list of EPC risk nodes. Rather than in a dropdown menu, however, this list is displayed in a pop-up window.
   
   • Once an EPC risk node/folder has been selected, its name will populate the Selected EPC Folder field.
     

     ** The purpose of the Add to EPC field is to allow users to add their newly created risk to EPC. The node/folder selected will act as the location of the new risk in EPC.

8. EPC Identifier: This is a text field that allows users to assign an identifier to the risk in EPC for tracking and reference purposes.
9. Save and Return: This button allows users to save the risk and return to the Gather Details form.
10. Save and New: This button allows users to save the risk and open a new form to create another risk.

*In EPC, users can define the options displayed inside the Impact, Probability, and Detectability dropdowns. We run a scheduler that periodically checks if this data has been altered. If so, the dropdowns will automatically update to reflect the latest changes in EPC.
