MB-920 Practice Question: Describe the core capabilities of the finance and operations apps
A manufacturing company uses Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations. They need to automate the process of creating purchase orders when inventory for a critical raw material drops below a predefined level. The solution must minimize manual intervention and ensure that purchase orders are created only during business hours. Which feature should they configure?
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
✓
Define reorder point and coverage group for the item, and schedule the master planning batch job to run during business hours.
Defining a reorder point and coverage group for the item allows the system to automatically suggest replenishment when inventory falls below the reorder point. Scheduling the master planning batch job to run during business hours ensures that purchase orders are created only during those hours, minimizing manual intervention. Option A is incorrect because simply configuring item coverage settings without defining a reorder point and scheduling master planning does not automate order creation during specific hours. Option C is incorrect because purchase requisition workflows require manual approval steps, contradicting the requirement to minimize manual intervention. Option D is incorrect because setting safety stock levels only influences planning suggestions but does not automatically create purchase orders or restrict creation to business 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.
- ✗
Configure item coverage settings and run the master planning batch job during business hours.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect. Configuring item coverage settings alone does not automatically generate purchase orders; it is a prerequisite but requires the reorder point and scheduled master planning to automate creation.
- ✓
Define reorder point and coverage group for the item, and schedule the master planning batch job to run during business hours.
Why this is correct
Correct. Combining a reorder point and coverage group with a scheduled master planning batch job meets the requirements of automated purchase order creation during business hours with minimal manual intervention.
- ✗
Create a purchase requisition workflow that triggers when inventory falls below a certain level.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect. A purchase requisition workflow involves manual approval steps, which does not minimize manual intervention as required.
- ✗
Set up safety stock levels for the raw material.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect. Safety stock levels only affect planning suggestions; they do not directly create purchase orders or restrict creation to business hours.
