Managing Projects with Microsoft Project 2013 v6.1

You are a project manager who uses Project Standard 2013.
Your project is approved, and you identify named resources to replace the generic resources for your project tasks.
You need to update the project schedule to assign the named resources to their appropriate tasks.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate three actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)

You use Project Professional 2013 to manage a project schedule which includes all task relationships.
The resource who is assigned to the "Develop software delivery" task is no longer available to work on your project. You can find another resource to perform this task, but you are not sure when the resource will become available.
You need to know which future tasks could be affected as a result of the resource leaving your project.
What should you do?

You are a project manager for a software development company. You use Project
Professional 2013.
You manage an integration project, and you discover that you need to add additional resources to the integration tasks in order to meet your development complete milestone date. The project is behind schedule, so you must shorten the duration of the integration development work.
You identify two additional resources to work on the integration task. When you add these resources, your task now shows it will complete three days ahead of schedule, which leaves a contingency window for issues that may arise.
In order to shorten the duration of the task when the resources are added, you need to set the task type before adding the resources.
What should you do?

You are a Project Manager who uses Project Professional 2013.
You manage a critical project, which is synchronized with a Microsoft SharePoint Task List.

What should you do?

Your company uses Project Professional 2013.
You are scheduling two tasks. One task is named Test Solution, and the other task is named Create Solution Test Plan. You want the Test Solution task to start three working days after the finish date of the Create Solution Test Plan task.
You need to set up a dependency between these two tasks.
What should you do?

Your company uses Project Professional 2013. You are a program manager who has a master project created for your program.
Currently you are seeing the critical path for each independent project in the master project. As a program manager, you want to ensure the resources are properly applied to successfully complete the program.
You need to display the critical path for the entire program instead of each independent project.
What should you do?

You are a program manager for a complex software development project. You use Project
Professional 2013 to manage your project. Your resources work on many different projects across the program, and you need to resolve resource over allocations. Your project team uses a resource pool to manage resources.
Resource1 has been assigned to assist on a project that is on the critical path. After assigning Resource2 to the task, you notice that Resource1 is over allocated during the month of November. Project A, which is on critical path, takes priority over Project B, which
Resource1 is also assigned to.
Using resource leveling in Project Professional 2013, you need to resolve the over allocation for Resource1 for the month of November only.
What should you do?
