Which TWO documents are typically created during the planning process group?
⚠ Common exam trap
CompTIA often tests the distinction between initiating and planning documents; the trap here is that candidates confuse the project charter (initiating) with planning outputs like the WBS or risk register, leading them to select the charter instead of the correct planning documents.
