Oracle Financial Reporting and Analysis Cloud 2017 Implementation Essentials — Question 16

You are managing a project based on a Waterfall model. You define a project and a project plan in Oracle Project Portfolio Management with tasks and subtasks applicable to each of the phases of the project: Initiation, Discovery, Design, Build, Test, and Deploy. As a project manager, you want to define deliverables for your project requirements that are elucidated during the Discovery phase of your project. You now want to understand how the inheritance between requirements, tasks, and deliverables works.
Identify the two correct statements in this respect. (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. A deliverable associated with a requirement is automatically associated with the tasks created for that requirement.
• B. The association of a deliverable with a task is dependent on associating a requirement with a task.
• C. A deliverable associated with a requirement is not automatically associated with the tasks created for that requirement.
• D. You associate a deliverable with a task independent of associating a requirement with a task.

Correct answer: B, D

Explanation

The correct answers are B and D because a deliverable's association with a task is contingent upon the requirement being linked to that task (B), while you can also independently associate a deliverable with a task without needing to link it to a requirement (D). Options A and C are incorrect as they misrepresent the automatic nature of associations between deliverables and tasks.
