MB-330 Practice Test 12 — 15 Questions

Question 1

A company is implementing outbound processing in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They want to use wave templates to automate the release of sales orders to the warehouse. The warehouse manager requires that the wave template automatically creates work for picking and then immediately processes the work to generate picking lists. Which two wave template methods should be included in the wave template to achieve this? (Choose two.)

Choose an answer to begin — your selection is scored in the full session.

Accepted Answer

Process work. To automatically create work and then immediately process it, the wave template must include both the Create work and Process work methods. Create work generates the picking work for the released sales order lines, and Process work then processes that work to make it available for picking. Other methods like Allocate and Replenish serve different purposes and are not required for this specific automation.

Answer

Replenish

Answer

Process wave

Answer

Allocate

Question 2

A manufacturing company runs Master Planning nightly. The production planner reports that for several finished goods, the system plans production orders for components that already have sufficient on-hand inventory at the same warehouse. The components have a coverage code of Requirement and a positive on-hand quantity, but the master plan still creates planned purchase orders for them. You need to determine the most likely cause. What should you check first?

Accepted Answer

The on-hand inventory is stored in a warehouse or inventory status that is not included in the coverage group for the master plan.. Master Planning calculates net requirements by subtracting available inventory from gross requirements. Available inventory is defined by the item's coverage group, which specifies the warehouses and inventory statuses to include. If on-hand inventory resides in a warehouse not covered or has an excluded status, the plan ignores it and generates replenishment. Checking the coverage group configuration is the first step to resolve this.

Answer

The item's coverage code is set to Requirement, which always ignores on-hand inventory.

Answer

The components have open production orders consuming the on-hand quantity, making it unavailable to the master plan.

Answer

The item's lead time is too short, causing the master plan to order early.

Question 3

A manufacturing company wants to ensure that raw materials are automatically consumed when production starts for a specific item. They have configured the item's production consumption method as 'Start'. However, they notice that materials are still being consumed manually. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The BOM line's consumption method is overridden to 'Manual'.. Automatic consumption at production start depends on the effective consumption method, which can be set at the item level but overridden on the BOM line. If the BOM line is set to 'Manual', it overrides the item's 'Start' setting, requiring manual consumption. Therefore, checking the BOM line configuration is essential to resolve the issue.

Answer

The item's tracking dimension group is not set to 'Serial'.

Answer

The production order type is set to 'Job' instead of 'Process'.

Answer

The production order's status is 'Created' instead of 'Started'.

Question 4

A manufacturing company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. The production planner needs to schedule production orders for a product that has a formula with two active ingredients, one of which is a catalyst that is consumed in small quantities but is critical. The planner wants to ensure that the system automatically adjusts the required quantity of the catalyst based on the batch size of the production order. Which configuration should the planner use?

Accepted Answer

Set the 'Variable' consumption option on the formula line for the catalyst.. The correct configuration is to set the 'Variable' consumption option on the formula line. This ensures that the required quantity of the catalyst is recalculated based on the batch size of the production order, maintaining the correct proportion. Fixed consumption would not adjust, and step or per series options are for different consumption patterns.

Answer

Set the 'Fixed' consumption option on the formula line for the catalyst.

Answer

Set the 'Step' consumption option on the formula line for the catalyst.

Answer

Set the 'Per series' option on the formula line for the catalyst.

Question 5

A distribution company configures a new product in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. The product must be ordered and received in pallets but stored and picked in cases. The warehouse manager wants the system to automatically convert between these quantities during purchasing and warehouse operations. Which configuration should you perform?

Accepted Answer

Define a unit conversion in the Unit conversions page and assign the case as the inventory unit and the pallet as the purchase unit on the released product.. The correct approach is to use unit conversions and assign the appropriate units on the released product. The purchase unit drives purchasing documents, while the inventory unit controls on-hand and warehouse transactions. With a defined conversion factor, the system automatically converts quantities between pallets and cases during ordering, receiving, and warehouse processing.

Answer

Configure a product dimension group that includes 'Configuration' and assign the pallet and case as configurations.

Answer

Create two separate released products, one for pallets and one for cases, and link them with a product relationship.

Answer

Set the purchase unit to case and the inventory unit to pallet, then enable the 'Allow variable consumption' flag on the product.

Question 6

A 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?

Accepted Answer

Inventory movement work. Inventory movement work is designed for internal warehouse moves that are not tied to a source document. It allows a worker to move items from one location to another within the same warehouse, such as from bulk storage to staging. This matches the supervisor's need to relocate a pallet without creating a sales or production order.

Answer

Outbound work

Answer

Cycle counting work

Answer

Inbound work

Question 7

A 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?

Accepted Answer

FEFO (First Expired, First Out). FEFO (First Expired, First Out) is the only strategy that automatically reserves inventory based on the nearest expiration date. It ensures that perishable items are shipped before they expire, reducing waste. Additionally, manual reservation override can be enabled, allowing specific customers to receive priority if needed, thus meeting both requirements.

Answer

Manual reservation only

Answer

FIFO (First In, First Out)

Answer

LIFO (Last In, First Out)

Question 8

A distribution company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with Warehouse Management. They want to ensure that when receiving a purchase order, the system automatically generates a putaway work for items that are not already in the warehouse. Which configuration is required to achieve this?

Accepted Answer

Configure a work template with a work order type of 'Purchase order' and include a putaway work type.. To automatically create putaway work when receiving a purchase order, the system must have a work template configured for the purchase order work order type that includes a putaway work type. This template is used by the work creation process to generate the appropriate work. Without it, no putaway work will be created, and items would remain in the receiving location.

Answer

Create a mobile device menu item for putaway and assign it to the warehouse worker.

Answer

Enable the 'Generate putaway work' option in the Warehouse management parameters.

Answer

Set up a location directive with a query that filters on the item number and warehouse.

Question 9

A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management warehouse management. They need to ensure that when a sales order is released to the warehouse, the system automatically creates work and assigns it to the appropriate workers based on their workload. Which feature should you configure to automatically assign work to users?

Accepted Answer

Work assignment. Work assignment in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management automatically distributes work to users based on configurable rules, such as workload balancing or user skills. This eliminates manual assignment and ensures work is allocated efficiently. Work pools and user groups are for organizing and restricting work, but they do not provide automatic assignment. Location directives are for inventory movement, not user assignment.

Answer

Location directive

Answer

Work pool

Answer

Work user group

Question 10

You are setting up Master Planning for a company that wants to include safety stock in their planning. They want to ensure that Master Planning suggests replenishment when inventory falls below a certain threshold, even if there is no immediate demand. Which coverage code should you use to achieve this?

Accepted Answer

Min/Max. Min/Max coverage code is designed to maintain inventory between a minimum and maximum level. When inventory drops below the minimum, Master Planning creates a planned order to bring it back up to the maximum. This inherently includes safety stock because the minimum acts as the safety stock threshold. The other coverage codes are demand-driven and do not automatically replenish to a threshold without demand.

Answer

Requirement

Answer

Manual

Answer

Period

Question 11

A company is preparing to release a product to a legal entity. The product must be blocked from being added to purchase order lines but must remain available for sales order lines. Which configuration should be applied on the released product?

Accepted Answer

Set the item's Purchase blocked field to Yes on the released product.. The Purchase blocked field on the released product is the targeted control that prevents purchase order line entry while keeping the item sellable. Broader item model group stops block all transaction types, default order type only influences defaults, and category hierarchies do not enforce purchase blocks. The correct configuration is therefore the specific block field on the released product.

Answer

Set the Procurement category hierarchy to a node with a purchase blocked flag.

Answer

Set the item's Default order type to Sales order.

Answer

Assign the item to an item model group with the Stopped flag set to Yes for purchasing.

Question 12

You are implementing transportation management. A shipment is created for a sales order, and you need to apply a fuel surcharge that is calculated as a percentage of the base freight charge. The surcharge should be automatically added when the shipment is rated. What should you configure?

Accepted Answer

Create an accessorial charge of type 'Fuel surcharge' and assign it to the rate route with a percentage calculation.. The correct approach is to create an accessorial charge of type 'Fuel surcharge' and assign it to the rate route with a percentage calculation. Accessorial charges are designed to handle additional fees like fuel surcharges, and they can be configured to calculate as a percentage of the base freight charge. When the shipment is rated, the system automatically applies the accessorial charge. Other options either use invalid configurations, require manual intervention, or calculate based on mileage rather than a percentage of freight.

Answer

Create a rate base with a break master of type 'Percentage' and rate breaks for fuel surcharge.

Answer

Add a manual charge line to the shipment for the fuel surcharge amount.

Answer

Configure a mileage-based rate engine that includes fuel surcharge in the per-mile rate.

Question 13

A 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?

Accepted Answer

Assign a tracking dimension group with 'Batch number' active to the item, and configure a number sequence for batch numbers in the Inventory and warehouse management parameters.. Automatic batch number generation requires two key configurations: the item must have a tracking dimension group where the batch number dimension is active, and a number sequence for batch numbers must be defined in the Inventory and warehouse management parameters. When a product receipt is posted, the system uses the number sequence to assign a unique batch number to the received quantity.

Answer

Create a new inventory status code for batch items and assign it to the item's default order settings.

Answer

Set the 'Batch number' dimension to 'Manual' on the tracking dimension group and enable 'Auto-generate batch numbers' in the Item model group.

Answer

Enable the 'Batch number' dimension for the item and set the 'Batch number group' to 'Auto' in the Item model group.

Question 14

You are setting up a warehouse that uses license plate numbers to track inventory. A worker needs to move a pallet from a receiving location to a bulk storage location using the mobile device. Which mobile device menu item should you configure to allow the worker to move the entire pallet without scanning individual items?

Accepted Answer

License plate movement. License plate movement allows a worker to move an entire license plate (pallet) from one location to another without scanning individual items. This is efficient for moving received pallets to bulk storage. Other menu items like sales order picking or purchase order receiving are for different processes and do not support moving a pallet as a single unit without item-level scanning.

Answer

Sales order picking

Answer

Purchase order receiving

Answer

Inventory transfer

Question 15

A company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They need to ensure that when a purchase order is confirmed, the system automatically creates a warehouse work for put-away. Which configuration is required to achieve this?

Accepted Answer

Configure a work template with a work order type of 'Purchase order' and assign it to the warehouse.. Automatic creation of put-away work upon purchase order confirmation requires a work template with the work order type 'Purchase order' assigned to the warehouse. This template, along with location directives, determines how work is generated. Other settings, such as parameters on the purchase order line or in Procurement and sourcing, do not control work creation.

Answer

Set the 'Put-away work' option to 'Yes' on the purchase order line.

Answer

Enable the 'Automatic work creation' parameter in the Warehouse management parameters.

Answer

Enable the 'Generate work' checkbox in the Procurement and sourcing parameters.
