{{Reference guide header|The tasking IMSMA impact scoring tool allows operations staff computes a score for locations to create task ''dossiers'' determine how much the location is affected by grouping useful information for planning and monitoring a ''task''the existence of explosive ordnance. The tasking impact scoring tool includes ''allows you to select factors—the land'' , education, and/or victim item attributes—you would like to evaluate. After selecting the factors, you assign weights to be addressed (each factor. The weight is a numerical value that is, signifies the ''objective'' importance of the task) factor relative to other factors, and ''work items'' such as surveys, clearances, education activities its effect on the impact score for the location. The combination of factors and QMstheir weights define a scenario in the impact scoring template. Any other related information You can be included in define an unlimited number of scenarios with different factors and weights to test and compare the binderresulting impact scores.
Depending on local standard operating procedures (SOPs), The impact scoring tool allows you to limit the tasking tool impact scoring to specific country structure areas and time periods. You can be customise the scoring ranges which are used to manage activities for one land or several land, or for monitoring a specific organisation group the locations in classifications that was taskeddenote levels of impact.

__FORCETOC__{{TOC right}}There are several steps to creating an impact score:
* Create an impact scoring template
* Add the following to the impact scoring template:
** Factors
** Scenarios
** Weights for each combination of factors and scenarios
** Scoring ranges
** Country structure area scope
** Date ranges to include
* Generate the impact scores
===Impact Scoring Window===__NOEDITSECTION__
Impact scoring templates are managed via the Impact Scoring window.
