As an administrator, you can customize the scoring model for requirements analysis to
meet the needs of your company.
About this task
As an administrator, you can change the default points to deduct for an issue. For example,
in your industry you might want to give more or less weight to escape clauses in requirements. If
you want to exclude any issues from the analysis, you can change the setting to
Ignore.

Notify the users about the change. Ask them to log out of RQA and
log in again to enable the new scoring model.
If users don’t log out and log in again, they continue to use the default scoring model for the
requirements analysis. If they already checked some requirements with the old scoring model, they
might want to run the analysis again by using the new scores.
Results
Now, the scoring model matches your business needs. When the users log in, they can check
the requirements with the new scoring model.
What to do next
You can change the scores back to the default values by clicking the Reset to
defaults link. Don’t forget to notify the users about the change. Ask them to log out of
RQA and
log in again to enable the new scores.
