Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

In Adobe Workfront, to configure tasks according to the requirement of the second task beginning 5 business days after the first task, you need to set the appropriate 'Duration' and use 'Finish-Start' dependencies. The task's duration is key to determining the time allowed for its completion. The 'Finish-Start' dependency ensures that the second task begins only after the first is finished, and a lag can be set to introduce a delay, such as 5 business days. Setting a 'Finish-Start' dependency with a lag allows for proper scheduling of tasks in sequence without overlapping.

I like option C, but the dependency type is wrong. Finish-Start is better.

I agree, Louann. The 5-day lag makes sense for the start.

Wait, can you really have a Start-Finish dependency? Sounds odd!

C) doesn't fit the timeline at all, that's confusing.

A) is the right choice! 2 days duration and 5 days lag makes sense.

Lag of 5 days? More like lag of 5 years, am I right? *wink wink*

C'mon, Start-Finish? What is this, amateur hour? Real project managers use Finish-Start, no doubt.

48 hours? That's like, a whole weekend! I can binge-watch Netflix and still get the task done.

I feel like the duration should be set to 48 hours since it mentions completing the task within that time frame. But I’m not clear on the dependency type.

I practiced a similar question where the dependency type was crucial. I think Finish-Start is the right choice here, but I'm not sure about the lag.

I’m a bit confused about the lag. I thought the lag should be applied to the predecessor, but I can't recall if it should be 5 days or something else.

Option B seems off. Planned hours don’t match the task duration.

I remember that the duration should reflect the actual time needed, so I think it should be 2 days, not 48 hours.

Option B looks promising - setting the Planned Hours to 48 hours and adding a Finish-Start predecessor with a 5-day lag to the first task. That way, the second task can start 5 days after the first one is completed.

I'm not entirely sure about the difference between Finish-Start and Start-Finish dependencies. I'll need to review that before deciding on the best approach.

I'm leaning towards option C. The task Duration should be set to 48 hours, and a Start-Finish predecessor with a 5-day lag seems to match the requirements.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. The question says the second task needs to be completed within 48 hours, but option A talks about a 2-day duration. I'm not sure if that's the right approach.

This question seems straightforward. I think I'll go with option A - setting the task Duration to 2 days and adding a Finish-Start predecessor with a 5-day lag.
