MB-920 Describe Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management Practice Question
A manufacturing company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. Which THREE components are required to set up a production process for a discrete manufacturing scenario?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many exam-takers confuse kanban rules (used in lean manufacturing) as a requirement for discrete manufacturing, when in fact discrete manufacturing relies on production orders, BOMs, and routes.

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
✓
Bill of materials
In a discrete manufacturing scenario, the bill of materials (BOM) is required because it defines the list of components and raw materials needed to produce a finished product. The production order is the core document that authorizes and tracks the manufacturing execution, while the route specifies the sequence of operations and work centers. Together, these three elements form the foundation for planning and executing production in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
