Family Field Descriptions

When the Use Aliases? check box is selected in the associated Risk Matrix record, the value in the Alias field in the Consequence record appears in the column heading along with the consequence name.

In addition, if the Alias Format Mask field in the associated Risk Matrix record contains the value {c}, the value in the Alias field in the Consequence record will be displayed in the cell in the Risk Matrix (according to the complete template that is defined in the Alias Format Mask field).

This value appears on the column heading in the risk matrix.

After the Risk Matrix has been used by a module in APM, this field is disabled, and you will not able to modify it.

This field is populated automatically based upon the value in the Name field. It is populated with a System Code in the MI_RISK_CONSEQUENCE_DESC System Code Table, which contains the same ID as the System Code that is stored in the Name field.

In the risk matrix, this value appears when you pause on the column heading.

This field contains a list that is populated based upon the MI_RISK_CONSEQUENCE System Code Table.

This value appears on the column heading in the risk matrix.

When the Use Aliases? check box is selected in the Risk Matrix record, the value in this field appears in the row heading along with the probability name.

In addition, if the Alias Format Mask field in the associated Risk Matrix record contains the value {r}, the value in the Alias field in the Probability record will be displayed in the cell in the Risk Matrix (according to the complete template that is defined in the Alias Format Mask field).

This field is populated automatically based upon the value in the Name field. It is populated with the System Code in the MI_RISK_PROBABILITY System Code table, which contains the same ID as the System Code that is stored in the Name field.

In the risk matrix, this value appears when you pause on the row heading.

On the datasheet, you can select a unit of measure from the Failure Interval Units list.

The baseline Probability records contain the value Years by default.

This field contains a list that is populated based upon the MI_RISK_PROBABILITY System Code Table.

The value that you select appears on the row heading in the risk matrix.

This field contains a list that is populated based on the MI_RISK_CATEGORY System Code Table.

The name that you select is used as the tab name in the Risk Matrix.

The name does not have to be unique.

APM does not provide any logic to enforce that only one Risk Category record per Risk Matrix record be selected as the financial category, but we recommend that you specify only one financial category per Risk Matrix record.

After the Risk Matrix has been used by a module in APM, this field is disabled, and you will not able to modify it.

When you create a new Risk Category record, the value in the Weight field is set by default to 1 (one).

After the Risk Matrix has been used by a module in APM, this field is disabled, and you will not able to modify it.

The format must be defined using the following formula:

{c} - {r} - {pl} - {t}

Where:

• {c} is the alias for the column.
• {r} is the alias for the row.
• {pl} is the alias for the protection level.
• {t} is the alias for the risk threshold.

The delimiter in this formula is a dash (-), but it can be customized. For example, you could use a colon (:), in place of a dash.

You can exclude from the format any parameter that you do not want to see on the risk matrix.

The default format is {c} - {r}.

You can choose from:

• X-Axis: Displays the consequence values along the x-axis.
• Y-Axis: Displays the consequence values along the y-axis.

When you change this value, the value in the Probability Axis field is updated automatically to display the opposite value.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, the default value is X-Axis.

After the Risk Matrix has been used by a module in APM, this field is disabled, and you cannot modify the value.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, the default value is USD.

You can specify only one Risk Matrix record as the default.

In the Standard Practice Risk Matrix record, the Default check box is cleared. In the Default Risk Matrix record, the Default check box is selected.

If no Financial Precision value is specified, a Financial Precision of 2 (e.g., 1.00) will be used.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, the Financial Precision box is empty, indicating that the default precision value is being used.

If this check box is cleared, the numeric risk rank values are displayed. If this check box is selected, the numeric risk rank values are hidden in the Risk Matrix.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, this check box is cleared.

If the check box is cleared, the names are displayed. If the check box is selected, the names are hidden.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, this check box is cleared.

When this check box is selected, for mitigated risk assessments, you will be able to modify only the probability value. You will not be able to modify the consequence value.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, the check box is selected.

The default label is Mitigated Risk Rank.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, the Mitigated Risk Rank box is empty, indicating that the default title is being used.

The default label is Mitigated By.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, the Mitigation Label box is empty, indicating that the default title is being used.

You can choose from:

• X-Axis: Displays the probability values along the x-axis.
• Y-Axis: Displays the probability values along the y-axis.

If you change this value, the value in the Consequence Axis field will be updated automatically to display the opposite value.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, the default value is Y-Axis.

This value is used to identify the record. It does not, however, appear anywhere on the Risk Assessment interface.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record, the Risk Matrix name is Default.

This field appears on the Risk Matrix Layout and the Risk Matrix Definition datasheets.

If the Show Financial Impact check box is cleared, the Financial Impact value does not appear on each category section of the Risk Matrix. If the Show Financial Impact check box is selected, then the Financial Impact value appears on each category section of the Risk Matrix.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, this check box is cleared by default.

The default label is Risk Of.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, the Unmitigated Risk Label box is empty, indicating that the default label is being used.

The default label is Unmitigated Risk Rank.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, the Unmitigated Risk Rank box is empty, indicating that the default label is being used.

If this check box is cleared, the overall risk rank will equal the sum of all selected values (except for the Financial value).

After the Risk Matrix has been used by a module in APM, this field is disabled, and you cannot modify the selection.

In the baseline Risk Matrix record and all new Risk Matrix records that you create, this check box is cleared.

The value in this field is populated automatically with one of the following values:

• Safety
• Environment
• Operations
• Financial

The value in this field is populated based on the selections made on the Risk Assessment window.

A value is not required.

The value in this field can be configured to appear on the Risk Matrix. The default label on the Risk Matrix is Unmitigated Financial Impact.

The value in this field is populated based on the selections made on the Risk Assessment window.

The value in this field appears at the top of the Risk Matrix and is calculated as follows:

Risk = Probability x Consequence

When the Use Aliases? check box is selected in the Risk Matrix record, when you pause on a cell in the risk matrix, instead of the value in the Description field in the Risk Threshold record, this value will appear.

In addition, if the Alias Format Mask field in the associated Risk Matrix record contains the value {t}, the value in the Alias field in the Risk Threshold record will be displayed in the cell in the Risk Matrix (according to the complete template that is defined in the Alias Format Mask field).

If a cell in the matrix contains a number greater than or equal to the risk level and less than the next highest risk level in a Risk Threshold record that is linked to the same Risk Matrix record, the number will be considered to reside within this risk level.

For example, if the Value field in the Risk Threshold record Medium contains the number 10, and the Value field in the Risk Threshold record High, which is linked to the same Risk Matrix record, contains the number 100, then any cell in the matrix that contains a number greater than or equal to 10 and less than 100 will be considered Medium risk. Any number greater than or equal to 100 will be considered High risk.
