RPN Result is an RPN calculated for a failure mode after a corrective action has been taken. This value is automatically computed after the RPN. For more information, see RPN. The RPN Result is also calculated for all failure modes when FMEA calculations are run.

The built-in equation for calculating RPN Result is:

For RPN Result to make sense, Severity, Occurrence, and Detection must be at a FMEA data level above or equal to the data level of the RPN. For more information about how the FMEA data structure impacts RPN calculations, see RPN Calculation Examples.
