Not sure about this one, can we really trust project managers with timecards?

I agree with B, but I’m surprised it’s not more obvious!

Wait, isn't it A? activity_admin sounds right too.

Definitely B, timecard_admin makes the most sense.

I feel like form_admin might be too general for this specific task, but I can't recall the exact details from our study materials.

I remember a practice question about roles, and I think activity_admin was mentioned, but it doesn't seem right for this context.

I'm not entirely sure, but approval_admin sounds like it could fit since they are approving timesheets.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of this question. Is the project manager supposed to have the role, or are they supposed to assign the role to someone else? I'll need to re-read it a few times to make sure I understand.

Timecard_admin makes the most sense to me. The project manager is dealing with time-related tasks, so that role seems like the best fit.

Okay, let me break this down. The project manager is responsible for approving timesheets, so they need a role that allows them to do that. I'm leaning towards approval_admin, but I'll double-check the options.

Rosalia 1 year ago

I'm a bit unsure about this one. Is it asking about the role the project manager should have, or the role they should give to someone else? I'll need to think this through carefully.

Laurena 1 year ago

Hmm, this seems pretty straightforward. I think the answer is timecard_admin since the question specifically mentions approving timesheets and submitting time cards.

I think C) form_admin could also be a possibility, as it involves submitting forms on behalf of team members.

D) approval_admin. Seems like the most logical choice since the project manager needs to approve timesheets and time cards.
