Why are the new words added to the smartsense.txt file not being applied to the overall Customer SmartSense score?

Environment:

Word List Files, SmartSense
Oracle B2C Service, All versions

Resolution:

Ensure that all new lines added to the base "SmartSense.txt" file follow the criteria below. When making large scale modifications to the file, it is recommended to test this on a test site where you can see changes without impact to your production site. Following this guide will ensure Smart Sense works as you expect for giving an accurate rating (-3 to +3) for your customers or agents.

If you are importing this list from an external source you need to ensure you have the correct formatting present. This includes:

• Word ratings (between +10 and -10)
• Each word and its rating must be separated by a tab
• Entries should be single words only
• Entries must also be separated by a carriage return
  
  Example list might be:
  ANGRY     -10
  MAD           -8
  UNHAPPY  -5

Although the spacing may appear as a tab, depending on the external source, your list may have utilized space characters.  Check your entries to ensure they using a tab and not spacing between the word and the rating.
