Oracle Financial Reporting and Analysis Cloud 2017 Implementation Essentials — Question 43

Your customer has the following setups on the project plan type that they are using for their projects:
Use Task Planned Dates as Task Assignment Dates = Yes
Automatically Roll Up Task Planned Dates = Yes
Synchronize Task Transaction Dates with Planned Dates = No
With these setups in place, you perform the following actions:
1. Create a new subtask (Sub Task 1) with a start date of 15-Jun-2016 on the project that has as start date of 01-Jul-2016.
2. Create another new subtask (Sub Task 2) after the previous action is saved.
What would the correct behavior of the application be after these actions? (Choose the best answer.)

Answer options

• A. After the creation of Sub Task 1, Project Start Date would remain unchanged as 01-Jul-2016 and Sub Task 2 would be created with 15-Jun-2016.
• B. After the creation and saving of Sub Task 1, Task Start Date would be changed to 01-Jul-2016 and Sub Task 2 would be created with 01-Jul-2016.
• C. After the creation of Sub Task 1, Project Start Date would be changed to 15-Jun-2016 and Sub Task 2 would be created with 15-Jun-2016.
• D. Project Start Date would remain unchanged as 01-Jul-2016 for both actions but the start dates on both subtasks would remain 15-Jun-2016.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the settings dictate that the Task Planned Dates are used as Task Assignment Dates, leading to the Project Start Date adjusting to the earliest subtask date after saving. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they either misrepresent the behavior of the application concerning the project start date or the dates of the subtasks.
