What happens when you set the Dependent factor field in the Automated Scripted Factor form to True?

Hey

 

When you set the Dependent factor field to True in an Automated Scripted Factor, it means that this factor’s calculation depends on the result of another factor. In other words, it won’t be evaluated independently—instead, it will use or rely on values from other factors (usually defined in the script or through relationships). This ensures the execution order is maintained, so the dependent factor runs only after the required base factor(s) are calculated.

Thank you.

If the Automated Scripted Factor for residual risk refers to the response results for Inherent risk and control effectiveness, is it correct to assume that setting Dependent Factor to True will execute the Automated Scripted Factor for residual risk last?
