When you choose or create a portfolio, it opens in an analysis view. P6 keeps track of which view you were last using with each portfolio and by default always opens that last view for each portfolio. An analysis view consists of two screens showing portfolio data. The screens can be oriented horizontally or vertically. Also, note that in analysis view there are always exactly two screens displayed. Example: Incorrect answers:C: Dashboards build upon those analysis tools and present project and portfolio information in a way that is easy to set up and use. These dashboards can be customized and assigned so that specific users or groups of users can see the same information when they log into the system. Dashboards can be configured to suit individual needs or literally get everyone on the same page. Example Corporate dashboard (the whole is the Dashboard):

All costs are stored in the Base Currency and all other Currencies are calculated values using the Base Currency value and conversion rate.

A, G: The Project Notebooks portlet is where all the project level notebook topics are shown in one location. This is especially helpful if your business process is consistently used to show reasons for delays, reasons for change orders, or other significant project communications. B: Primavera has functions, including Notebook, that enables you to note information associated with an activity, including the reasons associated for establishing a constraint. Note: Notebook topics are predefined categories in P6 that help to organize your project notes. The notebook topics in Primavera P6 provide team members with a history of all that happened in the project, whether it was a schedule delay due to rain or the breakdown of equipment.  Notebooks exist not only for Projects, but also can be added to any EPS, WBS, or activity. So, for example, you could create a notebook that describes the purposes and objectives of each WBS element. These notebooks could then be gathered together in a report, which outlines the project by WBS, using the notebooks as summary paragraphs. Incorrect answers:C, E, F: Notebooks allow you to enter information about a project.
