MB-330 Implement and Manage Supply Chain Processes Practice Test 3 — 15 Questions

Question 1

A company is using the Warehouse Management module in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They want to implement cross-docking to reduce handling time. Which two configurations are required to enable cross-docking for a purchase order? (Choose two.)

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

Accepted Answer

Create a work template with a putaway work type that uses the cross-dock location.. To enable cross-docking, the system must be configured to direct received items to a cross-dock location. This is achieved by creating a work template that includes a putaway work type and configuring the location directive to select the cross-dock location. These two elements ensure that putaway work is generated and directed appropriately, allowing items to flow directly from receiving to shipping without being stored.

Answer

Set up a cross-docking work policy and assign it to the warehouse.

Answer

Enable the 'Cross-docking' option on the item's storage dimension group.

Answer

Set up a mobile device menu item for cross-docking and assign it to users.

Question 2

A company uses Warehouse Management in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They have a location directive that should apply only to sales order picking for items in the 'HIGH' ABC classification. The directive is not being applied. You review the setup and see that the location directive has a query on the work template that filters on ABC classification. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The location directive is not linked to the work order type 'Sales order'.. Location directives are applied based on the work order type and work template. If the directive is not linked to the 'Sales order' work order type, it will be ignored during picking. The ABC classification query only filters locations if the directive is evaluated. Therefore, the missing link to the work order type is the most likely cause.

Answer

The ABC classification is not assigned to the items.

Answer

The work template does not have a pick work class.

Answer

The location directive query uses the wrong field for ABC classification.

Question 3

A company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with warehouse management enabled. They want to implement cross-docking for inbound receipts to reduce storage time. Which of the following must be configured to allow cross-docking during receiving?

Accepted Answer

Location directives with a directive code for cross-docking. Cross-docking in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management requires location directives with a directive code specifically for cross-docking. This directive code is used during receiving to find a staging location instead of a put-away location. When a receipt is registered, the system checks if the item is marked for cross-docking and then uses the location directive to determine where to move the item, typically a staging area near the outbound dock.

Answer

Work templates with a work order type of cross-docking

Answer

Mobile device menu items for cross-docking

Answer

Wave templates with a cross-dock flag enabled

Question 4

A company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with Warehouse Management only (no Production Control). They need to create a new warehouse that supports license plate numbers (LPNs) and advanced put-away and picking. Which configuration key must be enabled to use the Warehouse Management module?

Accepted Answer

Enable the 'Warehouse management only' configuration key.. The 'Warehouse management only' configuration key enables the advanced warehouse management features such as license plate numbers, put-away, and picking without requiring the Production Control module. This is the correct choice for a company that does not use production but needs full warehouse management capabilities. Enabling the correct configuration key is essential for the module to function properly and for users to access the necessary forms and processes.

Answer

Enable the 'Warehouse and Transportation management' configuration key.

Answer

Enable the 'Advanced warehouse management' configuration key.

Answer

Enable the 'Production control' configuration key.

Question 5

A company uses the master planning module in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They have a policy that safety stock for all items must be maintained at 10% of average monthly demand. The master planner notices that for a specific item, the safety stock is not being calculated correctly. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The item's coverage group is set to use 'Period' coverage, and the safety stock is calculated based on the coverage period, not the average monthly demand.. The safety stock calculation depends on the coverage group's settings, particularly the coverage code. If the coverage group uses 'Period' coverage, the safety stock is based on the demand within that period, which may not align with the average monthly demand if the period differs. To adhere to the 10% of average monthly demand policy, the coverage group should be configured to calculate safety stock based on the correct period or the item's safety stock percentage should be set accordingly.

Answer

The item's coverage group does not have the 'Safety stock' check box enabled.

Answer

The item's coverage group has the 'Safety stock' check box enabled, but the safety stock percentage is not defined in the item's default order settings.

Answer

The item's safety stock percentage is set to 0 in the item's default order settings.

Question 6

A company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with the Warehouse Management module. They have implemented license plate numbers for tracking inventory. A warehouse worker reports that during a sales order picking process, the system does not allow picking from a location that contains multiple license plates. The worker must pick a specific quantity from one license plate. What is the most likely cause of this issue?

Accepted Answer

The location is not configured as a license plate controlled location, so the system cannot distinguish between multiple license plates in that location.. The inability to pick from a specific license plate in a location with multiple license plates indicates that the location is not license plate controlled. Without this setting, the system cannot differentiate between license plates, treating all inventory as a single pool. Configuring the location as license plate controlled allows the system to track and pick from individual license plates, meeting the requirement.

Answer

The work template used for picking does not include a pick step that allows splitting by license plate.

Answer

The location is not configured to allow mixed license plates, and the worker is trying to pick from a location with multiple license plates without specifying one.

Answer

The location is configured as a license plate controlled location, but the item's tracking dimension group does not include license plate.

Question 7

A company is implementing master planning in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They need to ensure that planned orders for a specific item are automatically firmed to production orders when certain conditions are met. Which two settings must be configured to enable automatic firming? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Set the 'Firming time fence' on the item's default order settings.. Automatic firming of planned orders to production orders requires two key configurations: enabling firming in the Master planning parameters and setting a firming time fence on the item's default order settings. The Master planning parameters control whether firming occurs during planning runs, while the time fence defines the horizon within which planned orders are firmed. Together, they ensure that planned orders within the time fence are automatically converted.

Answer

Enable the 'Automatic firming' option on the production order defaults.

Answer

Set the 'Firming' field on the coverage group to 'Automatic'.

Answer

Set the 'Firming' field on the item's coverage group to 'Automatic'.

Question 8

A company uses Transportation Management in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They need to automatically rate shipments based on distance and weight using a specific carrier's rate table. Which two components must be configured to achieve this? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Create a carrier with a rating profile that references the rate master.. To automatically rate shipments based on distance and weight, you must configure a rate master that defines the rates using distance and weight breaks, and then assign that rate master to a carrier through a rating profile. The rating profile tells the system which rate master to use when rating shipments for that carrier. Together, these components enable automatic rating during shipment creation or rating processes.

Answer

Set up a mileage engine to calculate distances between addresses.

Answer

Set up a rate master with a rate base type of 'Distance' and a rate engine that uses weight breaks.

Answer

Configure a transportation tender to automatically accept the rate.

Question 9

A company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They have a requirement that all sales orders for a specific customer must be shipped complete. If any item is not available, the entire order should be held. Which configuration should be set up to enforce this?

Accepted Answer

Set the 'Ship complete' option on the customer record.. The 'Ship complete' option on the customer record is the standard configuration to enforce that all sales orders for that customer must be shipped in full. When enabled, the system will not allow the order to be released to the warehouse until all lines are fully reserved. This ensures that no partial shipments occur, meeting the business requirement without customizations.

Answer

Configure a sales order reservation hierarchy that reserves all items at once.

Answer

Set the 'Delivery date control' to 'Ship complete' on the sales order line.

Answer

Create a sales order processing policy that blocks release if any line is not fully reserved.

Question 10

A company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with the Warehouse Management module. They have multiple warehouses and use warehouse work policies to control work creation. A warehouse manager notices that for a specific sales order, the system created picking work for an item from a location that is not the nearest to the shipping dock, even though a closer location had sufficient inventory. What is the most likely reason for this behavior?

Accepted Answer

The location directive is configured to order locations by location ID rather than by proximity to the shipping dock.. The location directive determines which locations are used for picking and in what order. If it is not configured to order locations by proximity to the shipping dock, the system may pick from a farther location. The manager's observation indicates that the directive's query is likely ordering by a field like location ID rather than distance. Adjusting the directive to order by a proximity-related field would ensure the closest location is chosen.

Answer

The location directive's query did not include the closer location because it was blocked for the item.

Answer

The reservation hierarchy for the item does not include location, so the system reserved inventory without considering location proximity.

Answer

The work template used for picking does not include a step to optimize picking locations by distance.

Question 11

A company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They need to ensure that a specific item is never sold to customers in a particular region due to regulatory restrictions. Which feature should they use to enforce this?

Accepted Answer

Customer item restrictions. Customer item restrictions are the correct feature to enforce that a specific item cannot be sold to customers in a particular region. By creating a restriction for the item and associating it with the customer or region, the system will block sales orders that violate the restriction. This ensures regulatory compliance without customizations.

Answer

Item sales tax groups

Answer

Item restrictions

Answer

Product compliance settings

Question 12

A company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with the Warehouse Management module. They have set up a new warehouse and want to ensure that when a purchase order is received, the system automatically creates put-away work to move items from the receiving dock to storage locations. Which configuration is required to achieve this?

Accepted Answer

Create a location directive for put-away and assign it to the work order type 'Purchase order'.. To automatically create put-away work for purchase orders, you must set up a location directive for the put-away work type and assign it to the 'Purchase order' work order type. Additionally, a work template for put-away is needed. When the purchase order is received, the system uses these configurations to generate work that directs items from receiving to storage locations.

Answer

Enable the 'Automatic put-away' option in the warehouse management parameters.

Answer

Configure a reservation hierarchy that includes the put-away location.

Answer

Set up a wave template that includes a put-away step for purchase orders.

Question 13

A company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with Warehouse Management. They have a sales order for 100 units of an item. The item is set up with a reservation hierarchy of 'Warehouse > Location > License plate > Batch number'. The warehouse has 50 units in location A with license plate LP1 and batch B1, and 50 units in location B with license plate LP2 and batch B2. A worker creates a pick work for the full 100 units. The system attempts to reserve inventory. What is the correct order of reservation?

Accepted Answer

Reserve 50 from LP1/B1, then 50 from LP2/B2, respecting the hierarchy.. The reservation hierarchy dictates the sequence in which the system allocates inventory. It reserves from the highest level (warehouse) down to the most specific (batch). In this case, both locations are in the same warehouse, so the system will reserve from the first available license plate and batch, then proceed to the next. It will reserve 50 units from LP1/B1 and 50 units from LP2/B2, respecting the hierarchy and ensuring that inventory is allocated correctly without splitting license plates.

Answer

Reserve 100 from a single location by splitting the license plate LP1.

Answer

Reserve 50 from LP2/B2, then 50 from LP1/B1, because batch B2 is newer.

Answer

Reserve all 100 from LP1/B1 because it is the first license plate in the hierarchy.

Question 14

A company is implementing Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They need to configure the system to support a process where inbound goods are received, quality checked, and then moved to final storage. They want to use the Warehouse Management module. Which TWO configurations are required to enable quality check on inbound receipts? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Enable the 'Quality management' configuration key.. To enable quality checks on inbound receipts in Warehouse Management, you must first enable the 'Quality management' configuration key to activate the module. Then, you must set up quality associations for the items and transaction types (such as purchase order receipt) to trigger the automatic creation of quality orders during receiving. These two configurations are the foundation for integrating quality checks into the inbound process. Other options, while useful in some scenarios, are not mandatory to enable the basic quality check functionality.

Answer

Configure a mobile device menu item for quality check.

Answer

Create a work class for quality check.

Answer

Set up a quarantine warehouse and location.

Question 15

Refer to the exhibit. You are managing inventory operations. An attempt to post a packing slip for a sales order in warehouse WH12 fails with the indicated error. What is the cause?

Accepted Answer

The physical on-hand quantity is insufficient.. The system policy explicitly prohibits negative inventory, and the transaction would have forced the on-hand quantity below zero. Because the 'allow' flag is set to false for WH12, the system blocks the update to maintain accounting accuracy. This is a standard control mechanism to prevent data inconsistency between the warehouse management sub-ledger and the general ledger during critical shipping transactions.

Answer

The item lacks a valid storage dimension group.

Answer

The warehouse is under a physical lock.

Answer

The packing slip date is in a closed period.
