MB-920 Practice Question: Describe the core capabilities of the finance and operations apps

A company uses Dynamics 365 Project Operations. They want to track time and expenses against a project and invoice the customer based on actuals. Which billing method should they use?

⚠ Common exam trap

A common mix-up: candidates confuse 'Cost plus' with 'Time and material' because both involve actual costs, but Cost plus adds a markup on costs rather than billing directly for time and expenses as actuals.

Correct answer & explanation

Time and material

Time and material billing is the correct method because it invoices the customer based on actual time entries and expenses tracked against the project. In Dynamics 365 Project Operations, this billing method is designed for projects where the scope is uncertain and the customer agrees to pay for actual effort and costs incurred.
