From which object must a report be built to display project, program, and portfolio information?

Building a report to display project, program, and portfolio information is most effectively done from the project object. This is because the project serves as the foundational unit for capturing all the necessary data and metrics related to project execution, which can subsequently be aggregated into broader program and portfolio insights.

Projects contain specific attributes such as timelines, resources, tasks, and deliverables, which are essential for detailed reporting. By starting from the project, you gain access to granular data that can then be rolled up to higher levels. Reports generated from the project object can include relevant information that feeds into program management and portfolio analysis, offering a cohesive overview while still providing the detailed metrics that project managers need.

In contrast, while the portfolio and program objects also hold valuable information, they are generally geared towards summarizing or consolidating project data rather than detailing it. The task object, on the other hand, is even more granular, focusing on individual activities without capturing the broader context of project and program dynamics. Thus, selecting the project object ensures that a comprehensive and detailed report can encapsulate the necessary aspects of all three categories.
