AInternal and Time based.

BExternal and Internal

DTime based only

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

A time based event is one that occurs at a regular or predetermined interval, such as monthly or quarterly. In this scenario, the printing of the monthly payslips is a time based event, as it happens every month. The notification from senior management is not an external or internal event, as it is not triggered by an external or internal stakeholder or situation. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

Hold up, if the payslips are printed automatically each month, wouldn't that be an internal and time-based event? I'm leaning towards A.

I think A is the right answer. The bonus announcement is an internal event, and the payslip printing is time-based.
