  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.

  *

  Simply put, "enterprise" means information that is shared across all projects.

  

• Question 22:

  Identify the business case that would support the creation of OBS elements to align with WBS elements within individual project plans.

  A. Legal/regulatory requirements that prohibit users from seeing data across functional areas maintaining smaller sets of project data
  B. Mitigate the risk of significantly variant project management skill levels across an organization
  C. Large projects with multiple cross-functional learns that will be responsible for updating/maintaining one set of project data
  D. Supporting data export/import process to minimize risk of degrading schedule quality
  C. Large projects with multiple cross-functional learns that will be responsible for updating/maintaining one set of project data

  A work breakdown structure (WBS) is a hierarchical arrangement of the products and services produced during and by a project. The project is the highest level of the WBS while an individual activity required to create a product or service is the lowest level. Each project in the enterprise project structure (EPS) has its own WBS.

  When creating a project, the project manager typically develops the WBS first, assigns work products and documents to each WBS element, and then defines activities for performing the element's work. Specific earned value calculations can be specified for each WBS element, along with an organizational breakdown structure (OBS) element responsible for all work included in the WBS element.

• Question 23:

  You are an application administrator that has been asked to create a portfolio for an executive. You create the portfolio and have the user test to see whether it meets requirements. However there are a couple of projects that are missing. You look for the portfolio, but it is no longer visible to you.

  What is the cause of this problem?

  A. The global filters for the portfolio must be refreshed.
  B. You do not have read/write access to the portfolio.
  C. You created it for one user, and you are not that user.
  D. The projects were deleted in error.
  C. You created it for one user, and you are not that user.

• Question 24:

  Identify two formats available in the Capacity Planning chart.

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

  ---

  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.

• Question 25:

  You are a project manager working with a cross-functional project team. The project spans multiple years and has 25000 activities owned across these cross-functional teams. The team leads for the functional teams do not want to view activities outside of the ones that they own. They have asked you to find a way for them to only see their activities.

  Identify three P6 EPPM features that would help you respond to this requirement.

  A. Create project activity code for teams. Values = team names.
  B. Group and sort by project activity code within the common activity view.
  C. Create filters built on project activity code. Values = team names.
  D. Create a generic resource for each team, and assign to each owned activity.
  E. Create an activity view for each team, filtering on team owned activities.
  F. Group and sort by generic resource within an activity view.
  A. Create project activity code for teams. Values = team names.
  C. Create filters built on project activity code. Values = team names.
  E. Create an activity view for each team, filtering on team owned activities.

  ---

  Note:

  *

  Activity codes help to sort, filter, and group activities.

  *

  If you mainly work in one project, then it can be helpful to filter by project by default.

  

• Question 26:

  Identify this window.

  

  A. Create Dashboard
  B. Create Portfolio
  C. Create Portfolio view
  D. Group and Sort
  C. Create Portfolio view

  ---

  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.

• Question 27:

  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
  A. To document processes
  B. To explain a constraint
  G. To provide status information

  ---

  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.

• Question 28:

  Yon are working with a customer that has had a legacy Primavera release installed and running in their environment for four years, the CIO tells you that the current EPS does not show the data the way he would like to view it, and, therefore, he would like to restructure the entire EPS.

  Before proceeding, what four options would you present to the CIO so that organizational Impacts are eliminated?

  A. Modify the EPS.
  B. Identify the reporting requirements.
  C. Restructure the OBS.
  D. Add project codes
  E. Modify global filters.
  F. Create user-specific filters.
  G. Modify Group and Sort.
  A. Modify the EPS.
  B. Identify the reporting requirements.
  D. Add project codes
  E. Modify global filters.

  ---

  E: Global filters are made available to anyone working in the database,

• Question 29:

  What are two benefits of designating a resource as inactive?

  A. All project history and costs are retained.
  B. Budgets from past projects will remain intact.
  C. The associated user's information will be automatically deleted.
  D. Actual costs for past projects will be positively affected.
  E. The resource is identified as unable to perform future work.
  A. All project history and costs are retained.
  E. The resource is identified as unable to perform future work.

  Non-active resources may have left the organization but are not deleted from the system since they may have actual hours. Reference: Field Map for Oracle Primavera P6 Reporting Database

• Question 30:

  Identify this window.

  

  A. Portfolio
  B. Portfolio view
  C. Dashboard
  D. Project statistics
  B. Portfolio view

  ---

  When you choose or create a portfolio, it opens in an analysis view. P6 keeps track of which view you were last using with each portfolio and by default always opens that last view for each portfolio.

  An analysis view consists of two screens showing portfolio data. The screens can be oriented horizontally or vertically.

  Also, note that in analysis view there are always exactly two screens displayed.

  Example:
