MB-920 Practice Question: Describe the core capabilities of the finance and operations apps
A wholesale distributor uses Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations. They are experiencing high shipping costs because customer orders are often split across multiple shipments from different warehouses. They want to minimize split shipments by consolidating orders to the nearest warehouse with sufficient stock. 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
✓
Wave processing
Wave processing in Warehouse management allows grouping picking work for multiple orders into a single wave, enabling shipment consolidation from the same warehouse. By configuring wave templates and shipment consolidation rules, orders can be combined to minimize split shipments. While Transportation management offers a dedicated 'Shipment consolidation' feature, among the given options, Wave processing (Option A) is the most appropriate. Option B (Warehouse demand replenishment) is for stock replenishment, Option C (Inventory visibility) for real-time inventory, and Option D (Location directives) for put-away/picking routing; none directly consolidate shipments.
