Managing Projects and Portfolios with Microsoft PPM — Question 9

Your organization is in the process of implementing Microsoft PPM.
You need to configure Microsoft PPM to ensure that project managers can choose the tracking method for each of their projects.
On the Task Settings and Display page, what should you do?

Answer options

• A. Set the tracking method to Free form.
• B. Select the check box Force project managers to use the progress reporting method specified above for all projects.
• C. Clear the check box Force project managers to use the progress reporting method specified above for all projects.
• D. Set the tracking method to Percent of work complete.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because selecting 'Free form' allows project managers the flexibility to choose their tracking method per project. Option B enforces a single method, which contradicts the requirement. Option C would not enable project managers to have the desired flexibility if they still need a specified method. Option D limits tracking to a specific percentage completion, which is not what is being sought.
