In Oracle Planning 2024, the approval process uses an approval unit hierarchy where parent and child relationships influence the review workflow. The two ways these relationships affect the process are:

A. When the status of all children changes to one status (for example, Signed Off), the parent status changes to the same status: Correct. In a bottom-up approval process, when all child approval units reach a uniform status (e.g., Signed Off, Approved), the parent’s status automatically updates to match, reflecting the completion of the children’s review.

B. When you approve a parent, its children are Signed Off: Incorrect. Approving a parent does not automatically sign off its children; the workflow typically moves bottom-up, requiring children to be approved first.

C. After all children are promoted to the same owner, the parent status is changed to Signed Off: Incorrect. Promotion to an owner changes ownership, not necessarily status (e.g., Signed Off). Status changes are driven by approval actions, not just ownership.

D. After all children are promoted to the same owner, the parent is promoted to the owner: Correct. In the approval hierarchy, once all child units are promoted to a new owner (e.g., for review), the parent unit is also promoted to that owner, ensuring the hierarchy progresses together.

The Oracle documentation confirms that A (status aggregation) and D (owner promotion) are key behaviors of parent/child relationships in the approval process, making them the correct answers.

To track the utilization of employees in the Projects module of Oracle Planning 2024, the Workforce module must be enabled first. Employee utilization in Projects refers to tracking how employees’ time and costs (e.g., hours worked, labor expenses) are allocated to specific projects. The Workforce module provides the foundational data—such as employee details, roles, salaries, and hours—required to calculate utilization metrics. Once Workforce is enabled and configured with employee data, the Projects module can leverage this data via integration to track utilization against project tasks and budgets.

A. Projects module before Financials module: Incorrect. Enabling Projects before Financials does not address employee utilization tracking, as Financials focuses on revenue and expense planning, not employee-specific data.

B. Financials module before Projects module: Incorrect. Financials provides financial planning capabilities but does not manage employee data or utilization, which is a Workforce function.

C. Workforce module before Projects module: Correct. Workforce must be enabled first to define employee data, which Projects then uses to track utilization through integration (e.g., via data maps or direct links).

D. Projects module before Workforce module: Incorrect. Enabling Projects first without Workforce would limit utilization tracking, as Projects relies on Workforce for employee-related data.

The Oracle documentation specifies that Workforce is a prerequisite for detailed employee utilization tracking in Projects, making C the correct sequence.
