C: The Oracle Primavera EPPM Web Access product contains a functionality where by users can create their own calculated values and dashboard indicators for monitoring project KPI's. This is achieved by creating Project Calculated User Defined Fields. The formulas which can be populated in these fields is similar to a formula used in some spreadsheet applications e.g. Microsoft Excel. Providing a simple and effective platform for creating all manner of organisation bespoke project indicators.

Note: User-defined fields enable you to customize fields and values and add them to the project database.

Correct 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.

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

A scenario is a snapshot in time of one or more projects.

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

Storing of Period Performance

When billing in Excel (AIA form) or in the P6 schedule the current billing period amounts must be "rolled" or moved to the Previously Billed or Actual Cost

categories before starting a new billing period.

When the billing has been approved and finalized in the AIA form it can be copied to a new file for use in the next billing period. To "roll" or clear out the This

Period amounts in Excel, the current period amounts will have to be added into the Previous Application column cells. This creates a starting point for the new

billing period.

Note:

In P6, by default, actuals will be distributed evenly across time periods. For example, we set up an activity to start the first day of May, and we have actuals for the

month of May of 15 hours. We have actuals for the month of June of 25 hours. P6 will display this as 20 hours for May and 20 hours for June. To get the exact

amount of hours for each month, you have to store period performance. To do this, take the following steps:

1.) Set up your financial periods:

Select Admin, Financial Periods from the Menu Bar

You can either add your financial periods manually, or set up a batch run by entering the start date and end date and how often the period should be created.

2.) Enter your actuals for the resource into the column, Actuals This Period. It will also put the same amount in the Actual Units Column; at the end of May, Actuals

This Period would have 15 hours, as would Actual Units.

3.) When you are done with the update, do Tools, Store Period Performance. This will move the Actuals this Period to the appropriate financial period and zero out

the Actuals This Period column. At the end of June, enter 25 hours in Actual This Period. Actuals This Period will have 25 hours and Actual Units will have 40

hours.

4.) To view the financial periods, do the following:

Click Edit, User Preferences

Click on the Application Tab

Enter the Financial Periods that you would like to view. In the Activity Window, add the financial period columns (they will start with the financial period).

Enterprise Project Structure (EPS)

The EPS is the outsider's view of your company, showing your lines of business. The EPS is laid out in a tree structure.

Correct Answer: D

Explanation: Example:

Note the checkboxes to the left-hand side of each project. If you uncheck a box, then that project will be removed from the totals displayed. This will also remove that project from the accompanying portfolio view.

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

Example of Capacity Planning chart:

Frame B is the top-right quarter of the Capacity Planning screen. This is the Gantt area where projects are represented using scheduled dates on the green bar.

The orange bar is only seen in P6 on this screen and represents the forecast. The forecast bar will be the same as the schedule/current dates bar unless forecast

dates are specifically used (which is not typical). The purpose of the two bars is best used when viewing bids or projects in the future.

Note:

Using the Chart tab, users can change the Capacity Planning view to show Units or Costs in the Gantt chart, and can choose to display either only projects

selected or the entire portfolio. Other adjustments can be made here to create a desired view.

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

One idea behind Portfolio Analysis in P6 is that it gives you the ability to quickly make ad-hoc reports. You can quickly change the view and alter what data is

displayed and in what form. There are two main kinds of views -- scorecards and graphs.

Note: In the context of creating a scorecard:

Choosing data to display

There are three areas that you can customize on a scorecard: Columns, Group, and Waterline.

Screenshot (compare to screenshot in the question):

Columns The columns available are a mixture of Project-level data as well as WBS-level data. You can choose any of these columns on the left-hand side and press the right-arrow to move them to the Selected Columns. On the right-hand side you may re-order the columns by selecting them and using the up and down arrows. You can choose the default sorting of the data as well. Once on the scorecard screen, you can change the order by simply clicking on the column headers. The option Show Project Requests determines whether potential projects should also be included in the scorecard.
