PSA-Sysadmin Exam Dumps and Practice Questions

To prevent Project Managers from creating Assignments, Resource Requests, or Milestones from the Gantt, the Gantt Global Settings must be configured:

Navigate to Custom Settings Gantt Global Settings.

Modify the settings to remove the ability for Project Managers to create Assignments, Resource Requests, and Milestones from the Gantt.

Save and apply the changes.

Thus, the correct answer is B.

Understanding RPGPR (Region, Practices, Groups, Projects, and Resources) Updates:

The Current Time Period in PSA must be updated regularly to ensure accurate reporting and forecasting.

RPGPR entities are used for structuring project and resource hierarchies, making it essential to maintain updated time periods.

Options Analysis:

Option A: 'Schedule the RPGPR Maintenance Batch in PSA Administration' This is the correct answer because the RPGPR Maintenance Batch resets the Current Time Period to the default value (usually 'All Time Periods') and ensures all RPGPR records remain synchronized.

Option B: 'Manually update the Time Period on all RPGPR records' This is inefficient, error-prone, and impractical for large organizations.

Option C: 'Enable the RPGPR Time Period auto-update feature in Setup' No such direct feature exists in PSA to auto-update the RPGPR Time Period.

Steps to Schedule RPGPR Maintenance Batch:

Navigate to PSA Administration.

Locate the RPGPR Maintenance Batch option.

Configure the job to run at a set interval (e.g., daily or weekly).

Monitor the job execution via Apex Jobs in Salesforce.

Understanding Expense Editing in PSA:

Once an expense is approved and the 'Include in Financials' field is selected, expenses are locked for modification.

However, managers can still edit expenses before a billing event is created with the correct permission control.

Options Analysis:

Option A: 'Expense Ops Edit' Correct! Grants edit access to approved expenses before they are included in billing events.

Option B: 'Expense Entry' Incorrect. This allows expense creation, not modification of approved expenses.

Option C: 'Expense Edit' Incorrect. This general permission does not override locked expense records.

Steps to Enable Expense Editing for Managers:

Go to Permission Controls in PSA Administration.

Create a new Permission Control for the manager.

Assign Expense Ops Edit permission.

Save and test the ability to edit approved expenses.

To opt in for push updates or adjust the schedule of updates for FinancialForce applications:

Go to System Administrator Workspace in the FinancialForce Community.

Check for push upgrade schedules -- FinancialForce typically pushes major releases twice a year (Spring and Fall) and minor service packs periodically.

Modify settings if needed to control when updates are received.

Option A (PSA Administration) is incorrect because it handles system configurations but not update scheduling.

Option C (Foundations Admin App) is incorrect as it focuses on system-wide configurations, not update schedules.

Thus, the correct answer is B.

Understanding Backlog and Utilization Calculation in PSA:

Backlog Calculation: Tracks the remaining work (revenue) on projects. It includes scheduled and unscheduled backlog.

Utilization Calculation: Measures how effectively billable resources are utilized, distinguishing between historical and scheduled utilization.

Options Analysis:

Option A: 'Feature Console' Incorrect. The Feature Console is used to enable/disable PSA features, not schedule backlog/utilization calculations.

Option B: 'PSA Administration' Correct! PSA Administration is used to schedule backlog and utilization calculations.

Option C: 'PSA Admin App' Incorrect. The PSA Admin App provides access to administrative tools but is not used for scheduling calculations.

Steps to Schedule Backlog and Utilization Calculation:

Navigate to PSA Administration Tab.

Locate Schedule Backlog Calculation and Schedule Utilization Calculation.

Configure the scheduling parameters (e.g., frequency, time period).

Save and monitor scheduled jobs in Apex Jobs in Salesforce.
