# Definite Scoring

Definite scoring only considers the unexpected events in v2 and does not compare . These events may or may not be present in the baseline. Definite scoring is simple and easy to interpret. Definite scoring works based on the following factors:

* For every unexpected cluster that is in v2 and not in v1, the overall score is reduced.
* For all unexpected clusters present in both v1 and v2, overall score is reduced only when the number of logs of that cluster are higher in v2.
* There is no normalization, hence definite scoring may not work if the log file is too large. 
* Score Reduction is higher at higher sensitivity levels.
* By default, definite scoring will give a score of 0 (fail) whenever there is a critical error.

Score Reduction is higher for clusters with higher criticality.

To set the Definite Scoring algorithm follow the steps below:

1. Click on "New Application" button to create a new  application as shown below:

3\. In the above form after adding the application details you need to add. To know more on how to add an application click [here](https://docs.opsmx.com/products/opsmx-intelligent-software-delivery-platform/system-setup/applications/add-applications). 

4\. After you add the application details, you need to add the services to the application. To know more on how to add an application click [here](https://docs.opsmx.com/products/opsmx-intelligent-software-delivery-platform/system-setup/applications/add-services/add-services-and-pipelines). 

 5\. Next, you get the option to select the type of service you want to add. The options are:

* Approval
* Verification
* Test Verification
* Policy
