You work as a Project Administrator for company.com Inc. A manager informs you that one of his
employees is leaving the company for six months. He wants you to keep the employee’s Microsoft
Project Server account, but make certain it is inactive so that it is not a part of the Build team
function. What will you do to accomplish this task?
A.
You should set the user account as Inactive in the Edit User page.
B.
You should remove the user account permission Log On and Team Build.
C.
You should remove the user account from Active Directory.
D.
You should lock the account in the User Details page.
Explanation:
You can mark a user as Inactive to keep the user from logging into the Project Server and to keep the
account from being used in the Build team function. Marking an account as inactive does not delete
the account.
Answer option C is incorrect. There is no indication that the user and company are participating in
Active Directory. Removing the user from Active Directory, in addition, can result in deleting the user
account.
Answer option B is incorrect. The permissions should be associated with security groups and should
not be assigned directly to users.
Answer option D is incorrect. You do not lock accounts when editing users in Microsoft Project
Server.
