Documentation
Definition
Value between 0 and 100, which, if priorities are the same, defines the importance of an evaluation criterion in the evaluation of external services. The higher the value of the weighting, the greater the importance.
Use
The weighting is only relevant if you want to assign the same priority to several evaluation criteria. You can use the weighting to control the weight (importance) with which the relevant evaluation criteria (with the same priority) should be considered in the evaluation of external services.
In the evaluation of external services, the corresponding value for an evaluation criterion (determined for an external service) is multiplied with the weighting specified here, and then divided by 100.
Dependencies
Per priority, the total of weightings for all evaluation criteria must always be 100.
Example
Example 1:
Each evaluation criterion has its own priority, such as
- Evaluation criterion Distance, Priority 1
- Customer Satisfaction, Priority 2
- Price Priority 3
- Service Priority 4
Consequently, you must assign the weighting of 100 for each evaluation criterion. The weighting does not play any role in the evaluation of external services.
Example 2:
Several evaluation criteria have the same priority, such as
- Evaluation criterion Distance, Priority 1
- Customer Satisfaction, Priority 2
- Price Priority 2
- Service Priority 2
This means:
- For the evaluation criterion Distance with Priority 1, you must assign the weighting of 100.
- For all evaluation criteria with Priority 2, you must assign a total weighting of 100, such as
- For the evaluation criterion Customer Satisfaction, you assign the weighting of 50 (in other words, this evaluation criterion has a higher weighting than the two other evaluation criteria)
- The calculation of the evaluation with the evaluation criterion Customer Satisfaction is then as follows:
- 50 * <value defined for the relevant external service for the evaluation criterion Customer Satisfaction> /100
- For the two other evaluation criteria, you assign the weighting of 25 each (in other words, these two evaluation criteria have the same weight in the determination of the ranking list)
- The calculation of the evaluation with the two evaluation criteria Price and Service is then as follows:
- 25 * <value defined for the relevant external service for the evaluation criterion Price or Service> /100
