If you're using xkoronate and running an olympic-style event, it's best to use the bonus section to apply RP bonus.
But if you're running a smaller scale event, I'd recommend avoiding the bonus section since adding directly to skill is a more precise method. Its something that you use when it would be an enormous hassle to apply RP bonuses without it.
