Requirements grouping of materials is a process that allows you to plan and procure materials jointly for several WBS elements within a project or across projects. To use requirements grouping of materials, the materials must allow sales order or project stock, which means they must have a special procurement type of E or Q in the material master. An MRP group must also be assigned to the materials, which defines the parameters for material requirements planning, such as lot size and planning strategy.

Correct Answer: B

Forward scheduling is a method of scheduling activities from the start date of the project to the end date. Backward scheduling is a method of scheduling activities from the end date of the project to the start date. The earliest dates are determined by forward scheduling and the latest dates are determined by backward scheduling. This ensures that the activities are scheduled within the project duration and that any slack time is distributed evenly.

To record external service activities with service master data, you can confirm the activities in the Cross-Application Time Sheet (CATS) or create a service entry sheet. Service master data is a set of data that defines the scope and details of a service to be performed by an external vendor for a project activity. Confirming the activities in CATS is an action that records the time spent on performing external services and posts actual costs to the project. Creating a service entry sheet is an action that records the delivery of external services and posts actual costs to the project.

Correct Answer: D

To schedule a project that must be finished at a given due date, you should use backward scheduling. Backward scheduling is a type of scheduling that calculates the dates of project objects, such as WBS elements and networks, based on their dependencies and constraints, starting from a fixed end date and working backwards. Backward scheduling ensures that the project is completed by the due date and that any delays are identified as early as possible.

Project versions are copies of projects that allow you to save snapshots of project data at different points in time. Project versions are mandatory for Milestone Trend Analysis (MTA), which is a tool that allows you to monitor and compare the planned and actual dates of milestones in a project over time. Project versions can be created automaticallybased on user status, which means that you can define rules that trigger the creation of project versions when certain user statuses are set for project objects.

Correct Answer: B

To solve the problem of the system not preventing their project managers from exceeding their budgets, you have to activate availability control in the assigned budget profile and define the tolerance limits in customizing. The budget profile is a parameter that defines the basic settings for budgeting in your project, such as whether availability control is active or not. The tolerance limits are values that specify how much deviation from the budget is allowed before the system issues warnings or error messages.

A hierarchical report on budget updates is a standard report type that provides an overview of adjustments on the budget for WBS elements within your project. A hierarchical report on budget updates displays the budget values and changes for each WBS element in a hierarchical structure. You can use various selection criteria and display options to customize the report according to your needs. You can also access detailed information on individual budget values or changes by choosing drilldown functions.

Correct Answer: C

One statement that is valid regarding networks is that relationships can be used to connect activities of different networks. Networks are structural elements of a project that represent processes or operations within a project. Networks consist of various activities that represent tasks or partial tasks within a network. Relationships are logical connections between activities or networks that define the sequence or dependency of their execution. Relationships can be used to connect activities of different networks in order to model complex processes that span across multiple networks. For example, you can use a finish-start relationship to indicate that an activity in one network cannot start until an activity in another network is finished.
