Domain overview
This domain covers inventory and asset management in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. It tests configuration of inventory counting, blocking, reservations, and asset maintenance. Expect scenario questions on cycle counting, inventory blocking methods, maintenance types, and reservation behavior with blocked locations.
Exam objectives
Configure and use cycle counting plans and inventory counting journals
Set up inventory blocking for quality and production control
Manage asset maintenance requests and work orders
Understand reservation logic and location directives
Confusing cycle counting with manual counting journals; cycle counting uses counting plans and generates count work automatically.
Using inventory blocking that does not prevent production consumption; must use blocking that applies to all transaction types.
Assuming reservations respect location blocking; reservations can still occur if location directives are not configured to exclude blocked locations.

Refer to the exhibit. You are troubleshooting a failed Location Directive. Based on the JSON snippet, why is the system failing to reserve inventory?
2Which document is used to track the movement of goods from a source warehouse to a destination warehouse within the same legal entity?
3A technician is unable to attach a specific maintenance document to a work order. What is the most likely cause?
4When performing an inventory count, what is the impact of using 'Cycle counting' instead of a manual journal?
5Refer to the exhibit. Why is the work order not appearing on the scheduling board?
6Which entity is used to map an asset to a specific location in Asset Management?
7What is the primary purpose of an 'Inventory blocking' rule?
8Refer to the exhibit. Why are no maintenance jobs being generated for this asset?
9What is the primary function of a 'Work Template' in the warehouse management module?
10Which type of maintenance is triggered when an asset fails unexpectedly during operation?
11Which TWO scenarios require the use of a Quarantine warehouse to manage inventory quality?
12Refer to the exhibit. The system is configured to auto-reserve items upon order entry. A user reports that inventory is being reserved even when the item is in a location that is blocked for picking. What is the cause?
13You are configuring inventory valuation for a company that requires precise tracking of specific item costs. You must ensure that the inventory valuation method allows for reversing transactions while maintaining cost accuracy. Which inventory model should you select?
14Refer to the exhibit. You are experiencing issues with inventory reconciliation in the closing process. What is the root cause of this error?
15You are setting up Cycle counting in a warehouse. Which THREE actions must you perform to enable this functionality?
16Refer to the exhibit. You are attempting to finalize a counting journal after a physical inventory count. What is the cause of the error?
17You are implementing inventory blocking for an item that is damaged. You need to ensure that the blocked inventory cannot be used for production orders. Which method should you use?
18Your warehouse requires that all incoming items must be inspected before they are available for sale. Which configuration ensures this?
19A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management for inventory management. They have enabled the 'Inventory status' feature and assigned statuses to items. A warehouse worker wants to reserve inventory that has an inventory status of 'Blocked' for a sales order. The inventory status 'Blocked' has the 'Reservation' flag set to 'No' in its configuration. What happens when the worker tries to reserve the blocked inventory?
20You are a functional consultant for a company that uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. The warehouse manager wants to set up a new inventory counting process for high-value items. They require that counting be performed on a periodic basis without stopping warehouse operations, and that the system automatically generates counting work based on a schedule. Which feature should you configure?
21A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with warehouse management. They need to track items by batch number and ensure that when items are picked for sales orders, the system automatically selects batches based on expiry dates. The warehouse manager wants to configure reservation so that the earliest expiring batches are picked first. Which batch reservation strategy should you set up?
22A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to manage inventory. They need to track items by batch number and ensure that the batch number is automatically generated when a product receipt is posted. Which configuration should you set up?
23A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management Asset Management. Maintenance workers must record the spare parts they consume on work orders, and the parts must be financially posted against the correct asset. You need to configure the system so that item consumption on a work order creates the appropriate inventory and ledger transactions. Which setup should you perform?
24A warehouse supervisor needs to move a pallet of items from a bulk storage location to a staging area before loading onto a truck. The move is within the same warehouse and does not involve a sales order or production order. Which type of work order should be created to accomplish this movement?
25A distribution company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They need to ensure that inventory is reserved for sales orders based on the nearest expiration date, but they also want to allow manual reservation override for specific customers. Which reservation strategy should they configure?
26A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to manage inventory across multiple warehouses. They want to track inventory ownership for consignment items. Which two configurations are required to enable consignment inventory tracking? (Choose two.)
27A legal entity uses the Moving average cost method for a raw material item. On March 1, there are 100 units on hand at a cost of $12.00 each. On March 5, 50 units are purchased at $15.00 each. On March 10, 30 units are sold. The inventory manager needs to know the unit cost that will be used to value the 30 units issued on March 10. What cost does the system apply?
28A distribution company wants to track items by batch number and expiration date so that warehouse workers can see when each batch expires. The inventory manager must configure the item so that batch and expiration date information can be captured during receiving and used during picking. Which setup should you perform?
29A company uses standard cost for a purchased component. The purchasing manager reports that the purchase price variance on a recent purchase order was calculated against a cost that does not match the active standard cost shown on the released product. You need to determine why the variance used a different cost. What is the most likely cause?
30A warehouse supervisor needs to perform a cycle count for a specific location. They want to ensure that only items with a quantity greater than zero are counted. Which cycle count configuration should they use?
31A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management and has a policy that all items with a shelf life must be consumed in the order they expire, with the earliest expiration date first. They have set up batch attributes for expiration dates. Which reservation principle should they assign to the item's storage dimension group to enforce this?
32You are configuring inventory valuation for a company that uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. The company wants to use the 'Standard cost' valuation method for a manufactured item. You need to ensure that the standard cost is updated automatically when the bill of materials (BOM) calculation changes. Which configuration should you set up?
33A warehouse manager needs to ensure that when a sales order is picked, the system automatically suggests the oldest batch for items with shelf-life requirements. The company uses batch numbers with expiration dates. Which reservation principle should you configure on the item model group to achieve this?
34A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with warehouse management only. They have configured location directives to determine putaway locations for received goods. The warehouse manager reports that for a specific item, the system is placing goods in the wrong location, despite the location directive having a query that filters by item group. You need to troubleshoot the issue. What is the most likely cause?
