Question 51 - AD0-E903 discussion

Report
Export

Task 2 has a 5-day duration, is tied to Task 1 with a predecessor, and is expected to begin once Task 1 is completed. Due to a resource availability conflict, Task 1 was rescheduled to start 1 week later. Once Task 1 was rescheduled, the planned start date on Task 2 did not dynamically shift by 5 days as expected but instead remained the same planned start date that existed before the change to Task 1.

What may have caused the planned start date of Task 2 to remain the same?

A.
The primary assignee had already submitted a Commit Date for the previous planned start date on Task 2, even though the project owner did not accept this Commit Date, the project plan made this date a Must Start On Constraint on Task 2.

B.
The project owner has at some point made a manual change to the planned start date of Task 2, which has in turn changed the Task Constraint of Task 2 to Must Start On.

C.
The primary assignee had scheduled time off during the new planned start date that Task 2 should have shifted toward. Due to this time off scheduled the date remained the same.

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

In this scenario, the fact that Task 2's start date did not shift automatically despite its dependency on Task 1 suggests that a manual override was applied, resulting in a Task Constraint of 'Must Start On.' This type of constraint locks a task to a specific date, preventing it from dynamically adjusting based on changes to its predecessor. The other options either do not explain why the start date remained static or involve user-specific scheduling conflicts, which would not affect the system-driven date adjustment.
