NEW QUESTION 1
Identify two available portfolio chart views in Primavera P6.

• A. GANTT
• B. Bubble
• C. Histogram
• D. Spreadsheet
• E. Scorecard

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.

NEW QUESTION 2

NEW QUESTION 4
Identify two benefits of customizing user-interface views.

• A. Limit user access to functionality
• B. Lock down security privileges
• C. Administer users in the web interface
• D. Target application functionality
• E. User-based configuration

Answer: AE

Explanation:
A: Define user interface views that restrict and provide access to P6 Web Access functionality according to the requirements of your
company’s functional roles.
E: Defining a prototype user
configuration, in combination with defining user interface views,
ensures that new users of P6 Web Access will have a consistent interface customized for the business needs of the organization.
Note:
* Privilege Edit User Interface Views:
Create, edit, and delete user interface views in P6 Web Access. This privilege also grants you the right to assign user interface views to users in both P6 Web Access and the Project Management module.
* In addition to licensing and security privileges, you can further control access to P6 Web Access functionality using user interface views. A user interface view is a defined set of tabs, pages, and Action Menu items that a user assigned to that view can access in each section of P6 Web Access (Dashboards, Portfolios, Projects, and Resources). You can create multiple user interface views that correspond to the job functions performed by each role in your organization, or you can create user interface views to meet each individual user's needs. User interface views can only be defined in P6 Web Access and can be assigned to users in both P6 Web Access and the Project Management module.

NEW QUESTION 7
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 8
Identify three best practice uses of Notebook topics.

• A. To document processes
• B. To explain a constraint
• C. To send out an email alert
• D. To explain baseline update
• E. To change user access
• F. To update actual costs
• G. To provide status information

Answer: ABG

Explanation:
A, G: The Project Notebooks portlet is where all the project level notebook topics
are shown in one location. This is especially helpful if your business process is consistently used to show reasons for delays, reasons for change orders, or other significant project communications.
B: Primavera has functions, including Notebook, that enables you to note information associated with an activity, including the reasons associated for establishing a constraint. Note:
* Notebook topics are predefined categories in P6 that help to organize your project notes.
* The notebook topics in Primavera P6 provide team members with a history of all that happened in the project, whether it was a schedule delay due to rain or the breakdown of equipment.
* Notebooks exist not only for Projects, but also can be added to any EPS, WBS, or activity. So, for example, you could create a notebook that describes the purposes and objectives of each WBS element. These notebooks could then be gathered together in a report, which outlines the project by WBS, using the notebooks as summary paragraphs.

NEW QUESTION 9
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.

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.

NEW QUESTION 10
You are a program manager for a group of 10+ projects. You actually have a dedicated node for each program, and your owned projects reside under each node. Each program has its own unique requirements for viewing activity data.
You do not want to ask for activity codes that would be visible to the entire organization. Which activity coding solution would serve the needs of the project managers in your programs?

• A. Create global activity codes.
• B. Create user activity codes.
• C. Create project activity codes.
• D. Create EPS activity codes.

Answer: D

Explanation:
EPS activity codes can be used only in projects that belong to a specified EPS, including its subordinate EPS nodes, if any.
Note:
* An activity code can be designated as one of three types: Global, EPS, or project.
* Activity Codes can be defined through the Administer | Enterprise Data dialog, where they can be set at the Global, EPS, and Project level. Activity codes help to sort, filter, and group activities.
* Some data can be stored either at the enterprise level, or at the project
level. One such example is activity codes. Some activity codes may be enterprise, perhaps CSI codes to identify the type of work. Others, such as the specific floor in a multi-story construction, are particular to one project and meaningless in others.

NEW QUESTION 11
Identify two formats available in the Capacity Planning chart.

• A. Stacked histogram
• B. Pie
• C. Area
• D. Variance
• E. Cost

Answer: AC

Explanation:
Working with the Capacity Planning Page
Use the Capacity Planning page to perform What-if analysis, graphically change project forecast dates, and apply waterline analysis techniques to assist with critical, executive- level decision making. Before assessing capacity or demand on resources, create resource and role estimates for each project. During your analysis, you can create and update scenarios that provide varying snapshots of project and role allocation data. After conducting your analysis, you can create new portfolios containing only the projects that meet your planning criteria.
When you choose to display a stacked histogram (A), area chart (C), or spreadsheet, the Capacity Planning chart displays the total at completion units or costs over time for the combination of selected roles and projects. Each of these charts contains the same information in different formats with a data stacking option for the projects and roles you select.

NEW QUESTION 14
You are an implementation consultant working at a company where project schedules have been managed primarily with Microsoft Project, on individual desktops. The "projects" theoretically have been multiple-year projects. Your scope of work includes migrating project data from legacy project plans and setting up project planning standards. As you look into the current Microsoft Project plans, it becomes clear that the projects are not really multi-year projects. The plans have been managed by creating "new" projects within the old projects by skipping a few lines in what has become more of a program history.
What approach would you recommend to retain the legacy data (which is a mandated requirement in the new Primavera system), while moving forward with a "one project, one plan" process?

• A. Import all MS Project plans directly into the P6 production database "as is."
• B. Import MS Project plans but break out current in-flight work into separate projects.
• C. Create new projects only for in flight work identified in MS Project plans.
• D. Retire legacy project plans and start with new project planning standards.

Answer: B

NEW QUESTION 15
Where are workflows accessed?

• A. In portfolios
• B. In the EPS
• C. In the dashboards
• D. In the workspace

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.
Note:

NEW QUESTION 18
You are a project manager addressing risk responses in your Risk Register. As you created your Risk Register, you also created multiple mitigating/response plans for each risk. Identify the functionality that will indicate which response plan is primary.

• A. Response plan marked Active
• B. Response plan with the closest start date
• C. Response plan with lowest cost
• D. Response plan marked highest priority

Answer: A

Explanation:
Response Plan row: Create one or more response plans while you are in the planning phase and indicate the response type. When you have analyzed your response options, choose one response plan by selecting the Active option next to the appropriate response plan.
In the example below, two response plans have been created for the Concrete supply constrained risk. The first plan is to accept the risk and take no action; the second plan is to reduce the impact of the risk by contracting with alternative suppliers. You can see this second plan was selected as the plan of choice.

Note:
* A risk register and risk scoring matrix provide a system for monitoring and tracking risks.
* Rather than having a single response, you can create multiple responses to a risk.
* Once you have established your risks, you can view the Probability and Impact Diagram, which shows how the risks are coded. Several pre-defined PID matrices have been provided from which we can choose.
