NEW QUESTION 1
Your customer's project teams are cross-functional and global. Therefore, any standard reports must be generated at a standing day/time so that all affected resources and users have clearly defined timelines for data quality checks prior to report creation. Identify the P6 R8 feature that will address this requirement.

• A. Email monthly report to distribution list
• B. Send reports directly to printers at all user locations
• C. Schedule report generation to minimize performance issues
• D. Post generated reports to content repository

Answer: C

Explanation: Reports can be run on the spot or scheduled.
Note: Reports may be set to run on a schedule. This is very handy if you need a set of reports all generated at the same time. For example, you may need reports showing data as of the 25th of the month available for a review meeting the following day.
You can schedule a set of reports to run at 11:59 pm on the 25th. They can then be automatically e-mailed to all meeting participants. In this sense, scheduled reports are similar to the batch reports of P6 Professional, but with the added bonus that you can schedule the delivery.

• 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.

You can then decide to commit these changes to the schedule or, if the preview produces unwanted results, discard them. If Schedule Preview is disabled, changes to activities are not reflected in the schedule until you manually calculate the schedule again.

NEW QUESTION 16
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.
