Explanation

The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is created during the Planning process group, specifically within the 'Create WBS' process. Planning is where the project scope is defined and decomposed into deliverables and work packages. During Initiating (A), the project is authorized and stakeholders are identified, not scoped in detail. Executing (C) is when the work defined in the plan is actually carried out, not planned.
