Suggested Answer: A, D

The Project Management application supports two types of external dependencies: hard dependency and soft dependency. A hard dependency is a dependency that must be met before a task can start or finish. A soft dependency is a dependency that is preferred but not mandatory for a task to start or finish. You can find more information about these dependency types in theProduct Documentationfor ServiceNow.

I know this one! A) Hard Dependency and D) Soft Dependency are the external dependencies. The other options are just red herrings to confuse us. *laughs* Joke's on them, I'm too smart for that!

I'm not sure about Change Dependency. I think it's more about internal dependencies.
