This MB-920 practice question tests your understanding of describe shared dynamics 365 erp features. This is a configuration task: choose the command set that satisfies every stated requirement. Small differences — like 'secret' vs 'password' or 'transport input ssh' vs 'all' — change whether the answer is correct. 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 wants to use Dynamics 365 Finance to automate the approval of purchase requisitions under $1,000. What feature should be configured?
Budget control
Why wrong: Controls budget, not approval.
Vendor approval
Why wrong: Vendor master.
Workflow automation
Automates approval rules.
Purchase policies
Why wrong: Policies, not automation.
Answer choices
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
Workflow automation
Workflow automation in Dynamics 365 Finance allows you to define business processes that route documents for approval. By configuring a purchase requisition workflow with a conditional decision (e.g., amount <= $1,000), the system can automatically approve the requisition without manual intervention. This feature is specifically designed to automate approval steps based on configurable rules.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Answer analysis

Purchase policies
Why it's wrong here
Policies, not automation.
Common exam traps
The trap here is that candidates confuse 'purchase policies' (which set rules like spending limits) with the actual automation engine (workflow) that enforces those rules through approval routing.
Detailed technical explanation
Workflow automation in Dynamics 365 Finance is built on the Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) runtime and supports conditional branches, parallel activities, and escalation rules. For purchase requisitions, you can configure a 'Conditional Decision' element that evaluates the requisition total against a threshold (e.g., $1,000) and either auto-approves or routes to a specific approver. This is often combined with a 'Line Workflow' to handle multi-line requisitions where individual line amounts may exceed the threshold even if the total is under $1,000.
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.
