Exam Overview
Purpose: This 140-item certification preparation exam evaluates competency mastery for the GFEBS (General Fund
Enterprise Business System) Project Systems (PS) module per 2026/2027 standards. Items comprehensively cover
module architecture and integration, WBS design and management, project definitions and profiles, network and
activity planning, cost planning and budgeting, project execution and actual costs, Funds Management integration
(including Antideficiency Act compliance), project reporting and analysis, settlement and period-end closing, and
project closure with audit documentation.
Structure: The exam is organized into ten competency-labeled sections. Approximately 70% of items are
scenario-based requiring GFEBS transaction and structural decision-making, and 30% are direct recall of T-codes,
organizational structures, and role definitions. Each item includes a 2-4 sentence rationale with GFEBS PS-specific
reasoning citing specific T-codes, structural elements, DoD FMR citations, and SAP PS business processes.
Recommended administration time: 200 minutes. Pre-test readiness benchmark: 80% correct.

How to use this exam: Attempt each item without external references. Review every rationale — even for items
answered correctly — to confirm competency mastery. For missed items, identify the GFEBS T-code, structural
element, or regulatory citation that caused the error and re-study that competency area before retaking the GFEBS
Project Systems certification exam.

SECTION 1
Section 1: Project Systems Fundamentals and Architecture
Module Overview, Integration Points, Organizational Structures, and Master Data
Q1: In GFEBS Project Systems, which organizational unit is the CENTRAL unit for Project Systems and
represents a closed system for cost accounting?
A. Company code
B. Controlling area [CORRECT]
C. Business area
D. Functional area
Correct Answer: B. Controlling area
Rationale: The Controlling (CO) area is the central organizational unit for Project Systems, representing a closed system for cost
accounting. Company codes assign to a controlling area for cross-company-code cost accounting. Business area and functional
area are reporting dimensions, not the central unit for PS.
Q2: Which GFEBS component integrates with Project Systems to handle procurement of materials and services
directly charged to WBS elements?
A. Funds Management (FM)
B. Materials Management (MM) [CORRECT]
C. Treasury
D. Travel Management
Correct Answer: B. Materials Management (MM)
Rationale: Materials Management (MM) integrates with Project Systems to handle procurement of materials and services charged
directly to WBS elements. Funds Management handles budget control; Treasury manages cash; Travel handles travel vouchers.
MM purchase orders create commitments that post to WBS elements.
Q3: What is the standard GFEBS transaction code (T-code) to create a standard project using the Project Builder?
A. CJ01
B. CJ20N [CORRECT]
C. CJ02
D. CJ03
Correct Answer: B. CJ20N
Rationale: CJ20N is the Project Builder used to create and manage projects in GFEBS. CJ01 creates WBS elements directly;
CJ02 changes WBS elements; CJ03 displays WBS elements. CJ20N is the primary interactive transaction for project definition
and WBS creation.

Q4: Which of the following is NOT one of the organizational structures that integrate with Project Systems in
GFEBS?
A. Controlling area
B. Company code
C. Plant
D. Profit center hierarchy [CORRECT]
Correct Answer: D. Profit center hierarchy
Rationale: Controlling area, company code, and plant integrate with PS. The profit center hierarchy is a CO object but not a
primary organizational structure for PS integration. Profit centers can be assigned to WBS elements but are not a structural
organizational unit.
Q5: What T-code is used to display a project in GFEBS Project Builder?
A. CJ20N
B. CJ03
C. CJ2D [CORRECT]
D. CJ20
Correct Answer: C. CJ2D
Rationale: CJ2D displays project definitions in the Project Builder. CJ20N creates projects; CJ03 displays WBS elements; CJ20
is not a standard PS transaction. Display-only access for project review uses CJ2D or CJ03 depending on the level.
Q6: Which master data element in Project Systems DEFINES the controlling parameters for a project, including
planning profile, budget profile, and number range?
A. WBS element
B. Network
C. Project profile [CORRECT]
D. Activity
Correct Answer: C. Project profile
Rationale: A project profile defines controlling parameters including planning profile, budget profile, number range, and project
type. WBS elements are structural elements. Networks contain activities. Activities are individual tasks within networks.
Q7: Which GFEBS module provides budget control and Antideficiency Act compliance integration for Project
Systems?
A. Financial Accounting (FI)
B. Controlling (CO)
C. Funds Management (FM) [CORRECT]
D. Special Purpose Ledger (SPL)
Correct Answer: C. Funds Management (FM)
Rationale: Funds Management (FM) provides budget control and Antideficiency Act compliance for Project Systems. FI records
financial transactions; CO handles cost accounting; SPL handles special ledger postings. FM ensures projects do not exceed
available budget.
