three options available to the customer.
A, C, E

C: View Accounting Details
With the integration to Oracle Subledger Accounting, you now have the option to define account
derivation rules within Oracle Subledger Accounting that will replace the default accounts generated
by the Oracle Projects AutoAccounting feature.
E: Account Generation Rules
During the upgrade, Oracle Grants Accounting creates default accounting definitions that allow the
system to continue using existing AutoAccounting rules without additional setup steps. You may
choose to create your own accounting definitions using Accounting Method
An organization has specific departments that manage capital projects. How would you ensure that

A project manager would like to find out how much event revenue was accrued against a project up
to and including a specific date. Where would this information be available?
A
Explanation:
Project Status Inquiry
You can quickly and easily review the current status of a project, and then drill down for a more
detailed review of the project and its tasks. It enables you to search for a project using search criteria.
You can review project, task, and resource summary amounts, and actual and commitment amounts
using a different resource list.
Oracle Projects maintains various levels of project summary amounts for cost, commitment,
revenue, and budget amounts by project, task, and resource. You can review project summary
amounts to quickly determine the status of a project, such as reviewing the current and original
budgeted amounts and compare them to actual and commitment amounts. You can drill down to see
summary amounts for the resources of the project or the selected task. You can select a resource list
by which you want to view actuals and budgets. In addition, you can export project status inquiry
data into an Excel spreadsheet for further analysis.
Which statement is true about the use of the calendar assigned to a project?
C
Explanation:
When you implement Oracle Projects, you can select the calendar used to maintain PA periods.
PA Period Type
Specify a Period Type, which is used to copy Project Accounting Periods from the calendar associated
with the ledger. If you copy PA Periods from GL, Oracle Projects copies all of the periods of this Period
Type to set up the PA Periods.
In a multiple organization environment, the PA Period Type is specified for each operating unit.

Which project class type can include revenue budgets?
C
Explanation:
Note:
* Allow Revenue Budget Entry. Indicates if you allow entry of revenue budget types. You may choose
to not allow entry of revenue budgets for indirect or capital projects. You must enter a revenue
budget for a contract project before it can accrue revenue and be billed.
After receiving supplier costs from the Oracle Payables Supplier Invoices transaction source vow
customer wants to perform adjustments in Oracle Projects. Which three setups should exist?
B, C, E
Explanation:
C: If you enable the Allow Adjustments option for a predefined transaction source for supplier costs,
you must complete at least one of the following setup steps:
/ (C) Specify the default supplier cost credit account for supplier cost adjustments in Oracle Projects
implementation options for each operating unit.
/ Define a rule in Oracle Subledger Accounting to determine the supplier cost credit account.
This setup is required for the process PRC: Create Accounting to successfully create accounting for
supplier cost adjustments. Oracle Projects displays a message asking you to validate the setup each
time that you enable the Allow Adjustments option for a predefined transaction source for supplier
costs. (B)
E: You can adjust the supplier cost expenditure items in Oracle Projects to transfer or split the items.
Oracle Projects processes these supplier invoice adjustments using the Supplier Invoice Cost Account
AutoAccounting function.

The Finance Director is concerned that some of his or her project revenue may be overstated. What it
should be reviewed to understand the revenue position on each project?
C
Explanation:
Summarize Unbilled Receivables / Unearned Revenue Balances
The summarize unbilled receivables/unearned revenue balances process creates summary data
required for running the UBR and UER reports. The process creates summary balances for draft
revenue and draft invoices in Oracle Projects. The process summarizes amounts for draft revenues
for which the process PRC: Generate Revenue Accounting Events has successfully generated events.
The process summarizes amounts for draft invoices that have been transferred, imported, and
successfully tied back to Oracle Receivables.
The unbilled receivables and unearned revenue transactions are summarized by project, by account
segment, cost center, and GL period, deriving the summary amounts used in the reports.
A customer has provided a purchase order for $100k. The customer issues an additional $20k to the

Identify two ways to ensure that correct class category codes are recorded against relevant projects.
B, C
Explanation:
B: To define class categories and class codes:
1. Navigate to the Class Categories and Codes window.
2. Enter a unique Class Category name and a Description.
3. Specify whether the class category is mandatory for every project you define.
Enable if all projects must have a code assigned to this class category. Do not enable if this class
category is optional. If you do not enable this option, you cannot use this class category in your
AutoAccounting rules.
4. Specify whether you want to use the class category in your AutoAccounting rules.
Suggestion: For each project, you can use only one code with one class category for use with
AutoAccounting rules. If an AutoAccounting category already exists within a particular date range,
assign an end date to the existing AutoAccounting category and then create a new one.
5. Specify whether you want to allow entry of only one class code with this class category for a
project.
Note: Defining multiple class codes for one category for a project may affect reporting by class
category; defining multiple class codes may cause your numbers to be included more than once.
6. Enter the Name, Description, and Effective Dates for each class code.
7. Save your work.
C: As part of a project template definition setup, you can choose which Quick Entry fields you want to
define. Oracle Projects prompts you to enter information in these Quick Entry fields when you create
a new project from a template. Choose Quick Entry fields for project information you want to enter
(instead of accepting the template default) each time you create a project.
Order: Enter a number to indicate the sequence in which you want the Quick Entry fields to appear.
Field name: Choose the fields you want to appear in the Quick Entry window when you create a new
project.
Specification: You enter a specification for the following field names:
Key Member: Select the project role type to use when creating the key member
Classification: Select the class category to use when creating the classification
Customer Name: Select the customer relationship to use when creating the project customer
Prompt: You can enter a field name that is different from the predefined field name to display when
you use Quick Entry.
Required: Choose whether you want to require entry for the Quick Entry field.
