Instructions
Read each question carefully, and circle the correct answer.
1)

/2

When creating a new project, the data date at the project level must be

a.

A date that occurs after the project date

b.

A date that occurs before the project date

c.

A date that is the same as the start date

Answer C: The data date and the project date must be the same to ensure that once the project summarizes and
schedules in the system, the start date remains per the actual project start date required. Having a data date that occurs
before or after the project can create a conflict of logic within the project, resulting in error.

2)

/2

When a scheduled training must occur on a non-working day at ABC learning center

a.

Maintain the selection of US workweek and holiday under the calendar column

b.

Change the selection to 5-days no holiday workweek under the calendar column

c.

Change the selection to OSR 10 hours workweek under the calendar column

Answer B: Changing the selection to 5-days no holiday workweek will enable the system to force start an activity to occur
on the desired date. Selecting US workweek and holiday will result in the system skipping the date, and selecting OSR-10
hours workweek is incorrect because classes scheduled at ABC learning center follow 8-hour days.

3)

/2

True or False? Each activity within a project must be linked to denote a predecessor and
successor.

a.

True

b.

False

Answer A: If the activities do not have a predecessor and successors assigned, the system will not be able to schedule the
activities to take place in sequence, resulting in error.

/2

The assigned project ID must be unique and is obtained through FSP

a.

True

b.

False

Answer A: The system will not accept duplicate values for project ID. Each ID must be unique and is generated through
the FSP system which is provided to you by the technology lead.

5)

/2

You may select more than one answer. When creating a new resource

a.

The resource must be allocated within the technology lead

b.

The resources SSO is not used as a project ID

c.

The resource must be categorized according to resource type i.e. internal instructor, customer
instructor, or hybrid instructor

Answer A & C: All the above criteria must be met when creating a new resource. Failure to allocate a resource within the
technology lead will result in a reporting error. SSOs are unique values to each resource, and project ID within a resource
creation has the same logic for ID creation at the project level it must be unique. Failure to categorize according to
resource type will result in a reporting error.
