A resource event is a non-scheduled activity that affects the availability and capacity of a resource or a group of resources. Examples of resource events are vacations, holidays, training, or sick leave. Resource events can be created by resource managers or resources themselves, and they can be viewed in the resource calendar or the resource workbench.

I always thought project managers scheduled everything!

Wait, are we sure it's not just an external event?

Totally agree with B! Makes the most sense.

I thought it was just a block of time for tasks.

It's definitely a non-scheduled activity impacting capacity.

I thought a resource event was more about the time a resource spends on a task, so I might go with option C. It sounds familiar!

I'm leaning towards option B, but I can't quite recall if a non-scheduled activity is the right definition for a resource event.

I remember practicing a question about resource management, and I feel like it had something to do with scheduled activities. Maybe that's option D?

I think a resource event might be related to how resources are allocated, but I'm not entirely sure which option fits best.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the question. Can a resource event be an external event? Or is it specifically something internal to the project? I'll have to mull this over.

Okay, let me see. A resource event is something that impacts the availability or capacity of a resource, right? So I'm going to go with B as my best guess.

This question seems pretty straightforward. I think the answer is B - a non-scheduled activity impacting capacity.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I'll have to think it through carefully. Maybe I should review my notes on resource management before deciding.

I think option B is the way to go. Reviewing the capability model will give the APAC team a clear understanding of the key process areas without getting bogged down in the nitty-gritty details. That should help them identify the priorities for their own implementation.

I've got this! The exhibit clearly shows that SSL AnyConnect is the VPN technology allowed for the Employee tunnel group. I'm confident that option A is the right answer.

I think it's a combination of all options, depending on the context.

I disagree, I think it's an event scheduled by a project manager.

I believe it can also be an external event that impacts capacity.

I agree with I also think it's a block of time spent on a task.

I think a resource event is when a resource spends time on a task.

I agree with Belen, I think a resource event is more along the lines of an external event that affects a resource. Like if a team member has a family emergency or a piece of equipment breaks down unexpectedly.

You know, I'm starting to think that none of these options are quite right. Maybe a resource event is something more like an external event that impacts the availability or assignment of a resource. Just a thought.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. I was thinking it might be option D, an event scheduled by a project manager. That would make sense as a resource event, since the project manager is the one who's responsible for scheduling and managing resources.

I'm leaning towards option C. A block of time that a resource spends on a task seems like the most straightforward definition of a resource event. After all, that's what we're really interested in when managing projects, right?
HO

I'm not sure about option D. It seems too specific to be the definition of a resource event.
WI
Willow

I think option B could also be a valid definition. It's non-scheduled and impacts capacity.
JE
Jeanice

I agree, option C does seem like the most logical choice.
RO

I think it's option B. A non-scheduled activity that impacts capacity sounds like it could be a resource event, like a team member having to attend a last-minute meeting or an unexpected equipment failure.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not entirely sure about the definition of a resource event. Is it something to do with the time a resource spends on a task, or is it a non-scheduled activity that impacts capacity?
