This MB-920 practice question tests your understanding of describe the core capabilities of the finance and operations apps. The scenario asks you to isolate a root cause — eliminate options that address a different problem before choosing. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. They want to implement warehouse management with advanced wave processing. Which THREE components are required for wave processing?
Work template
Work template defines work creation for wave.
Wave template
Wave template defines how wave processing is executed.
Shipment template
Why wrong: Shipment template is for shipping, not wave processing.
Location directive
Location directive determines pick locations.
Load template
Why wrong: Load template is for transportation, not wave processing.
Answer choices
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
Work template
Work templates are required for wave processing because they define the sequence of warehouse work that must be performed, such as picking and staging, when a wave is released. Without a work template, the system cannot generate the actual work lines for warehouse workers to execute.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Answer analysis

Load template is for transportation, not wave processing.
Common exam traps
The trap here is that candidates often confuse shipment templates or load templates as required components, but wave processing specifically requires wave templates, work templates, and location directives to function correctly.
Detailed technical explanation
Wave processing in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management uses wave templates to control the automatic creation of work, picking, and replenishment when a wave is processed. Work templates and location directives are then used to determine the specific steps and storage locations for the generated work. A real-world scenario is a high-volume distribution center where wave processing automatically groups multiple sales orders into a single wave, then uses location directives to direct pickers to the correct bin locations based on FEFO or zone strategies.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Real-world example
A cloud solutions architect for a retail company is evaluating services for a new workload. The correct answer here reflects best practice for the specific scenario described — not a general cloud recommendation. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Cloud exam questions reward reading the constraint carefully: the same technology can be right or wrong depending on the use case.
