MB-920 Describe Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management Practice Question
A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with the Warehouse Management module. They receive goods from multiple vendors and need to put them away efficiently. The warehouse uses a directed putaway strategy based on location profiles and unit load constraints. The warehouse manager wants to optimize putaway by grouping similar items together in the same zone. You need to configure the system to automatically direct putaway to appropriate locations based on location profile and unit load. You have the following options: A. Configure location directives for putaway with appropriate query criteria for location profiles and unit load constraints. Set up work templates to create work for putaway. B. Use the mobile device menu items to manually select locations for each item. C. Use the Inventory management module to set up location groups and manually assign items to locations. D. Use the Product master to assign a default location for each item. Which option should you choose?
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
✓
Configure location directives for putaway with appropriate query criteria for location profiles and unit load constraints. Set up work templates to create work for putaway.
Location directives and work templates automate the putaway process based on location profiles and constraints. Configuring location directives with appropriate query criteria allows the system to direct putaway to locations that match the location profile and unit load constraints, enabling grouping of similar items in the same zone. Work templates then create the putaway work automatically. Option A is incorrect because assigning a default location per product does not use directed putaway logic. Option B is incorrect because manually assigning items to locations is not automated. Option C is incorrect because mobile device menu items can be used for execution but not for configuring the directed putaway strategy.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Use the Product master to assign a default location for each item.
Why it's wrong here
Assigning a default location per product does not use directed putaway logic based on location profiles and unit load constraints. It bypasses the dynamic allocation that can group similar items together.
- ✗
Use the Inventory management module to set up location groups and manually assign items to locations.
Why it's wrong here
Manually assigning items to location groups is not an automated process and does not leverage location directives or work templates to direct putaway based on location profiles and unit load constraints.
- ✗
Use the mobile device menu items to manually select locations for each item.
Why it's wrong here
Mobile device menu items are used for executing putaway work, not for configuring the automated directed putaway strategy that uses location directives and work templates.
- ✓
Configure location directives for putaway with appropriate query criteria for location profiles and unit load constraints. Set up work templates to create work for putaway.
Why this is correct
Location directives with appropriate query criteria automate the direction of putaway to locations that match the location profile and unit load constraints, enabling grouping of similar items in the same zone. Work templates then create the putaway work automatically.
