MB-920 Describe Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management Practice Question
A distribution company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to manage its warehouse operations. The warehouse manager reports that during peak hours, order picking is slow because pickers frequently travel long distances to retrieve items. The warehouse layout is fixed. Which feature should the company use to optimize picking routes without changing the physical layout?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many exam-takers confuse replenishment or cluster picking with route optimization, not realizing that wave processing with location-based filters directly controls the sequence and grouping of picks to minimize travel distance without altering the layout.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Configure wave processing with location-based wave filters.
Wave processing with location-based wave filters allows the system to group work into waves based on criteria such as location, enabling the creation of efficient picking routes that minimize travel distance. This feature optimizes the sequence of picks within a wave without requiring any physical changes to the warehouse layout, directly addressing the manager's need to reduce travel time during peak hours.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Enable replenishment to ensure pick locations are fully stocked.
Why it's wrong here
Replenishment ensures stock availability but does not optimize picking routes.
- ✗
Use location directives to direct putaway to random locations.
Why it's wrong here
Location directives are for putaway, not for optimizing picking routes.
- ✓
Configure wave processing with location-based wave filters.
Why this is correct
Wave processing can group orders by location proximity, reducing travel time for pickers.
- ✗
Implement cluster picking to group orders by customer.
Why it's wrong here
Cluster picking groups orders but does not optimize travel distance between items.
