Audit Scoring (AM+)

Standard Scoring

The Audit Manager's basic scoring is pre-loaded, but there are some aspects of scoring you can adjust if you want. Each scorable Data Element, shown on the Audit Worksheet, starts with an automatic score of 1 point. This is the default value for that data element. To find out the total possible points for the audit, add up the points listed in the Possible Points column on the Audit Worksheet for each data element. (Remember, data elements can be added to a project just for reference and not for scoring. In that case, Audit Manager+ will show a 0 in the Possible Points column for those data elements.) Errors will be subtracted from the total possible score. The calculation is straightforward:

             Score = Possible Points - Deductions                            Example: 12 - 3 = 9 (score)

             Accuracy Rate = Deductions / Possible Points               Example:  9 / 12 = 75% (accuracy rate)

There is one exception to this rule.  If the Data Element has neither a reported nor an audited value, it will have a zero in the Possible Points column.

Customization of Deduction Scores

You can customize the number of deductions for different errors by adjusting the points assigned to each error in the Metric. You can modify the weight of a specific error by assigning fractional points, with the system accepting up to one tenth of a point. Note: only one decimal place is allowed. For example, a half point is entered as 0.5. For more details, see the article "Working with Metrics."
