What takes the highest precedence during Resource Leveling?

A.
Leveling priority

B.
Mandatory constraint

C.
Topological sequent

D.
Resource Calendar

Explanation:
Primavera uses rules to determine the order by which activities are leveled:
1. Mandatory Constraints
Leaves activities that have a mandatory Start/Finish date on their early dates
Network logic may be violated
2. Topological order (relationships)
Respects network logic
3. Leveling priority (“tiebreaker”)
If two activities can be leveled at the same time, levelling priorities are used to break the tie.

and double-click Project Leveling Priority to add it to the Selected Columns list and click OK.

Note: Enter a value from 1, the highest priority, to 100, the lowest. The default is 10.
• b. Click the Actions menu and select Save (Ctrl+S).
Etc.
Note 2: Resource leveling is an automated process that can change the start date of activities. Level resources in your project schedule to ensure that resource demand does not exceed resource availability. Typically, you level during the forward pass through a project. This determines the earliest dates to schedule an activity when sufficient resources will be available to perform the task.

If forward leveling delays the project’s early finish date, a backward pass might be necessary to recalculate late dates.
During resource leveling, the resource requirements of all scheduled activities are compared to the maximum quantity available at the time of leveling, and an activity is only scheduled to occur when its resource demands can be met. To accomplish this, tasks can be delayed to resolve resource availability conflicts.
