Add a New Hypothesis to the Hypothesis List

A Hypothesis List contains a list of Hypothesis that have been defined by an RCA Team. During an RCA team's analysis sessions, ideas are proposed quickly. The Hypothesis List page provides a quick method for capturing these ideas without having to add Hypothesis nodes directly to the Logic Tree diagram. Any hypothesis that is added via Hypothesis List pane can be added as a Hypothesis node to the Logic Tree diagram.

Steps

  1. Access the Logic Tree diagram to which you want to add a new Hypothesis to the Hypothesis List.
  2. In the lower-left corner of the workspace, select the Hypothesis List pane.

    A list of Hypotheses available in the database for the selected RCA appears.

    Note: If any RCA Hypothesis are linked to the current RCA but do not appear in the Logic Tree, they will appear in the list.

  3. Above the list, select .

    The Hypothesis box appears.

    The Add New Hypothesis section

  4. In the Add New Hypothesis window, enter a description for the new Hypothesis.
  5. Select Save.

    The new Hypothesis appears in the Hypothesis List.

    Note: As needed, you can modify the Hypothesis node. To do so, select the hyperlink to the Hypothesis, and then modify the value in the Hypothesis box.
