  The BI Publisher report is generated by the BI Publisher engine and rendered into a desired format. The same report can be rendered as PDF, MS Word, MS Excel, HTML, or even in an interactive web view. This rendered output can then be sent on demand or on a schedule to many destinations including e-mail, content repository, a file system, and more.

  Note: Having a content repository integrated with P6 can turn cluttered, unstructured content into organized assets by making it easier to catalog, access, search, and reuse documentation.

  Note 2: BI Publisher BI Publisher is a key part of the Oracle Fusion Middleware stack. The technology for BI Publisher was originally developed for Oracle E-Business suite, but it is now used in a wide range of systems, including Primavera Contract Manager, JD Edwards, and PeopleSoft. From a user's point-of view, it is very convenient to learn one well designed reporting tool that is also used in many other systems. BI Publisher has many users, and many resources available to help with reporting needs. BI Publisher is designed such that the data being reported on is completely separated from the layout of the report, and the layout of the report is completely separated from the report output format.

• Question 15:

  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
  A. Fixed Units

  ---

  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 16:

  Identify the true statement regarding Schedule Checker.

  A. Before running Schedule Checker, you should schedule the project.
  B. Schedule Checker evaluates the WBS structure to demonstrate standards compliance.
  C. Schedule Checker is run from the Portfolios section.
  D. Run Schedule Checker before scheduling the project to fix issues.
  D. Run Schedule Checker before scheduling the project to fix issues.

  ---

  Note: The new schedule checker is a tool that assists planners, project managers and the PMO to ensure project plans are built within the guidelines of industry and organizational best practices. The schedule checker performs a 14-point analysis to ensure that activities and dependencies of the project schedule are following desired standards. The schedule checker adheres to the DCMA 14-point assessment check and produces a report that lists all opportunities for corrective action or improvement when aspects of the project schedule fall outside the quality guidelines. The report includes a summary and detailed sections displaying activities falling outside your configured thresholds.

  Note 2: The Schedule Checker can be run against one or multiple projects. You can save the thresholds to run again for the project that is open. The first thing to do is set up the 14 Configurable User Thresholds. See figure below.

  

  Example of output.

  Shown below is the top half of the Schedule Check Summary Report.

  

  Reference below the lower half of the Schedule Check report.

• Question 17:

  What would be a prudent course of action to complete before moving forward with this change?

  A. Merge the old OBS element with the requested OBS element.
  B. Create a new OBS element per the change request.
  C. Determine which users would be affected.
  D. Delete the old OBS element per change request.
  C. Determine which users would be affected.
