NEW QUESTION 5
Identity the true statement regarding the Must Finish By constraint.

• A. The Must Finish By constraint is used as the starting date for the backward pass.
• B. The Must Finish By constraint forces all activities in the project to finish by that date.
• C. The Must Finish By constraint affects the total Role limits for the project.
• D. All activities have negative total float when a Must Finish By constraint is assigned.

Answer: B

Explanation:
Must Finish date is not constraining Activity. It is used to calculate the schedule on "Backward pass" to show the float whether negative or positive. If Must finish date is less than current project finish date then some critical activities will be showing negative float but if current project finish date is less than must finish date then it will show all positive float.

Note: Primavera calculates the backward pass starting from the end date of the project finish date you enter manually. Therefore, if the end date is not possible to be achieved using the network logic that you have made, then you will always get negative total float

NEW QUESTION 19
Identify the business case that would support the creation of OBS elements to align with WBS elements within individual project plans.

• A. Legal/regulatory requirements that prohibit users from seeing data across functional areas maintaining smaller sets of project data
• B. Mitigate the risk of significantly variant project management skill levels across an organization
• C. Large projects with multiple cross-functional learns that will be responsible for updating/maintaining one set of project data
• D. Supporting data export/import process to minimize risk of degrading schedule quality

Answer: C

Explanation:
A work breakdown structure (WBS) is a hierarchical arrangement of the products and services produced during and by a project. The project is the highest level of the WBS while an individual activity required to create a product or service is the lowest level. Each project in the enterprise project structure (EPS) has its own WBS.
When creating a project, the project manager typically develops the WBS first, assigns work products and documents to each WBS element, and then defines activities for performing the element’s work. Specific earned value calculations can be specified for each WBS element, along with an organizational breakdown structure (OBS) element responsible for all work included in the WBS element.

NEW QUESTION 20
What is the significance of setting "Summarize project based on high-level resource planning"?

• A. Summarized project data will reflect top-down plans.
• B. Summarized project data will reflect bottoms-up plans.
• C. Summarized project data will reflect actuals pushed from another application.
• D. Summarized project data will be monetized.

Answer: A

Explanation:
Typically, use the High Level Resource Planning option for future projects that are currently planning only high-level resource allocation requirements, or for projects that are underway, but for which you do not want to assign resources at a detailed activity- level.
Note: ‘Summarize Project Based on’ determines whether the Summarizer calculates and displays rolled-up data based on resource assignments at the activity or project level.
Note 2: You can summarize project data to a specific WBS level when calculating and maintaining summary data.

NEW QUESTION 21
You are a project manager managing a large construction project. One of the pieces of heavy equipment required to dig the Foundation will most likely not be available until a specific date, because that equipment has been allocated to another, higher priority project. In that related project schedule you clearly see that in all likelihood, the activity in that plan that uses that equipment will also slip. You want to reflect this in your project schedule using a constraint.
What would be the most appropriate constraint to use?

• A. Start On
• B. Start On or Before
• C. Start On or After
• D. Mandatory start

Answer: C

Explanation:
Start On or After defines the earliest date an activity can begin. This constraint affects only early dates. When calculating a schedule, P6 Web Access imposes the start on or after constraint in the forward pass only if the calculated early start date will be earlier than the imposed date.
Note: Primary Constraint and Secondary Constraint can be applied to activities. The possible constraint types are:
• Start On
• Start On or Before
• Start On or After
• Finish On
• Finish On or Before
• Finish On or After
• As Late as Possible
• Mandatory Start
• Mandatory Finish
