1Z0-1080-26 practice question 8 of 25

In which two ways do parent/child relationships between approval unit hierarchy members affect the review process?

Answer options

A: When the status of all children changes to one status (for example. Signed Off) the parent status changes to the same status. Correct answer

B: When you approve a parent. Its children are Signed Off.

C: After all children are promoted to the same owner, the parent status is changed to Signed Off.

D: After all children are promoted to the same owner, the parent is promoted to the owner. Correct answer

Correct Answer:

A. When the status of all children changes to one status (for example. Signed Off) the parent status changes to the same status.; D. After all children are promoted to the same owner, the parent is promoted to the owner.

Explanation

In an Approval Unit Hierarchy, workflow status propagates upward only. 1) When every child in a branch reaches the same status (for example, Signed Off), Planning automatically sets the parent to that same status. 2) If all children are promoted to the same next-level owner, Planning automatically promotes the parent to that owner, preserving the same status it already had.

Why Incorrect

B. Workflow actions never cascade downward; approving a parent does not change a child’s status.
C. Finishing promotion of children moves the parent to the same owner but does not force a Signed-Off status.
