• Question 22:

  Identify two available portfolio chart views in Primavera P6.

  A. GANTT

  B. Bubble

  C. Histogram

  D. Spreadsheet

  E. Scorecard

  Correct Answer: BC

  Explanation:

  B: Bubble Chart is the most complex and powerful portfolio view.

  C: Histograms

  Note that this is not a true histogram,

  which is a diagram representing a distribution of data. An example of a true histogram would be a chart showing the number of activities completed each month.

  Histograms in the Portfolio Analysis view are rather a "Relative order of Magnitude" chart presented as an X-Y chart.

• Question 23:

  You are a program manager reviewing portfolio performance data. You see that many issues are assigned to a "responsible manager." What does "responsible manager" mean with Primavera P6 EPPM?

  A. The person responsible for resolving the issue

  B. The person who identified the issue

  C. The element from the OBS associated with the issue

  D. the manager to which the issue has been assigned

  Correct Answer: C

  Explanation:

  Your organization, from top-level personnel down through all levels. You can associate the responsible managers with their areas of the EPS-- either nodes or

  individual projects. When you associate a responsible manager with an EPS node, any projects you add to that branch of the EPS are assigned that manager

  element by default.

  Note: Note: When you associate a responsible manager with an EPS Node, any projects you add to that branch of the EPS are assigned that manager element by

  default. When you create a user, you have to give them Responsible Manager assignments in order for them to see projects. Your EPS and your OBS need to have a one-to-one relationship. If you give a user a Responsible Manager assignment (OBS) that is not tied to an EPS, Project or WBS level, they will not see any projects when they log into the Primavera Client application or the Web Application.

These dashboards can be customized and assigned so that specific users or groups of users can see the same information when they log into the system. Dashboards can be configured to suit individual needs or literally get everyone on the same page.

  of WBS, activities, and other project data to ensure that new projects are consistent, have repeatable quality results, and that they comply with internal and external standard procedures.

• Question 28:

  You are a project manager on a fixed-bid contract. This contract has actually been positioned as a "loss leader" within your company because it is your first contract with this customer. The hope is that you can prove yourself to the customer and win additional business at higher margins down the road. The margins for this contract are very slim.

  What would be the best solution to set up in P6 to give you the visibility that you need to minimize the probable financial loss?

  A. Set a Mandatory Finish constraint at each contractual milestone and track schedule performance against the constraint.

  B. Set all activities in your project plan to Physical % Complete, and use Remaining Duration to track schedule performance.

  C. Set all activities in your project plan to Units % Complete, and use Remaining units to track schedule performance

  D. Set a Must finish By date at the project level, and track schedule performance using float in the project plan.

  Correct Answer: B

  Explanation:

  Note: Percent complete

  You can also update activity status by entering the completed percentage against it. In the Activity Details screen, you can set the percentage complete for the

  activity to be one of these three types:

  · Duration: It simply calculates the current date versus the start date and planned duration.

  · Physical: It requires statusing both resource units (remaining duration or percent complete). This delivers a better representation of progress, but at the cost of

  requiring greater detail.

  · Units: It requires statusing of remaining units. The percent of delivered units compared to planned units drives progress for the activity.

• Question 29:

  In your project, cost and work effort is not subject to change. Which duration type should be used?

  A. Fixed Units

  B. Fixed Duration and Units/Time

  C. Fixed Units/Time

  D. Fixed Duration and Units

  Correct Answer: A

  Explanation:

  Cost and work is here least flexible. If total work effort or fixed costs are most important, choose Fixed Units.

  Note: Working with Duration Types

  Duration type options

  Duration type determines whether the schedule, resource availability, or cost is most inflexible when calculations are performed to reflect activity progress.

  Duration type affects update calculations only when resources are assigned to an activity.

  Choose a duration type based on which factor is the most important, or least flexible, in planning your project.

  If schedule is most important, choose Fixed Duration and Units/Time or Fixed Duration and Units. If resource availability is most important, choose Fixed Units/

  Time. If total work effort or fixed costs are most important, choose Fixed Units.

• Question 30:

  Where are workflows accessed?

  A. In portfolios

  B. In the EPS

  C. In the dashboards

  D. In the workspace

  Correct Answer: C

  Explanation:

  The Workflow portlet is displayed in a Dashboard.

  Example:

  1) Setup and Configuration: After your administrator sets up BPM, configure a dashboard to display the Workflows portlet.

  2)Action Required Tab: This tab shows the tasks that are important to you (the currently logged in user).

  3)My Workflows Tab: This tab enables you to view all workflows according to role and status filters you can set.

  4) Initiate a Workflow: Click Initiate a Workflow to start a new instance of a workflow based on a predesigned template.

  the workflow, as authenticated by BPM.
