MB-920 Practice Question: Describe the core capabilities of the finance and operations apps
A company is implementing Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to improve warehouse efficiency. Which TWO features can help optimize picking and packing processes?
⚠ Common exam trap
Microsoft often tests the distinction between warehouse execution features (wave processing, cluster picking) and inventory management or transportation features (cycle counting, route planning, cross-docking), leading candidates to select options that are valid in other contexts but not directly for optimizing picking and packing.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Wave processing
Wave processing (B) is correct because it allows grouping of picking work into waves based on criteria such as shipment, route, or warehouse zone, enabling efficient batch release and optimized picking routes. Cluster picking (D) is correct because it enables a single picker to pick items for multiple orders simultaneously by grouping them into clusters, reducing travel time and increasing throughput in the packing process.

Route planning is for transportation, not warehouse picking.
- ✓
Cluster picking
