Re: Importing Risks from Excel
Yes. Importing risks from Excel work the same way in RiskyProject Enterprise and RiskyProject not connected to the database. The only difference the imported risks will be saved in ALM file, not in database.

Re: Managing LOE Tasks
For LOE activities, it only matters if you are running resource loaded to calculate costs. If this is the case, you need to run two simulations: the first to assess the overall duration uncertainty covered by the LOE activity, the second to apply this uncertainty to the LOE task. For example, to cal...

Re: Spikes appearing in histograms
In the example you are talking about, you will see spikes in the results. It is a common and expected results when analyzing using risk events. Let’s take a look at a very simple example of a 5 day activity. Now, we add 1 risk assignment: 50% chance, 50% relative delay. http://www.intaver.com/images...

Re: Split Tasks
In general we don't recommend to use split task for probabilistic calculation, because uncertainties can be related to shifts and non-working time. It is hard to model and can cause confusions. Instead we recommend to use multiple tasks.

Re: RiskyProject Dashboards
In RiskyProject 7.1 you can create any view of risk register with any sets of columns and filters. They are essentially dashboards. To create extra view use tabs at the bottom of risk register view.

Analyzing mega schedules
What are the options for running extremely large program schedules? Our first recommendation would be to question if this is both desirable and feasible. Running simulations of extremely large schedules often generates a lot of “noise”. For example, it is almost impossible to run reliable sensitivit...

Re: Using the risk matrix to add risk in the form of a percentage of probability of a schedule delay (or cost increase)
The software supports both uncertainty (aleatory risk) and events (epistemic risks). Risk events are managed in the Risk workflow and can be assigned with probability and impacts to cost and schedule (fixed or relative). We recommend the use of statistical distributions to model ranges of impacts. W...

Re: Modeling impact of weather related events when a weather calendar is not appropriate
Risk assignments are calculated for each activity or resource independently and it is possible to have different probabilities and outcomes for different assignments for the same risk. So you can have the same risk “Weather”, but assign different probability and impacts to different activities based...

Re: How does RiskyProject deal with risk probability when it is entered an index range vs %
For quantitative analysis, we recommend adding probability as a “% “ as it is more accurate. Otherwise, if you use ranges or labels, it takes the middle value of the range for the analysis. For example, if you are using (1,2,3,4,5) as defined in the default matrix, each range represents 20% probabil...

Re: Linking summary tasks
While we do “allow” users to link summary tasks to the precedent network, it is not recommended as a best practice. It can cause logic errors, circular paths, and also issues with critical path and sensitivity analyses. Here is a well designed video that explains why you should not link summary task...

Re: Calculating work with resource calendars
Work calculation occurs anytime you change the duration of a task that includes resources with resource calendars that are different from the project calendar that the tasks is using. This is due to how task duration, work, and units are calculated. When you create tasks, you must select a task type...

Re: Non Working days and Time Dependent Costs
The answer to your question depends upon they type of project you are modeling. Non-working times that include exceptions as well as periods where work cannot be performed due to weather conditions, do not calculate work for affected resources. However, in some projects, weather delays (non-working ...
