This MB-920 practice question tests your understanding of describe the core capabilities of the finance and operations apps. 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.
An organization uses Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations with dual-write integration to Dataverse. They notice that some financial dimension values are not syncing correctly. What should they verify first?
Clue words in this question
Noticing these words before you look at the options changes how you read each choice.
Clue: "first"
Why it matters: Order matters here. You are being tested on which action comes before the others — not which action is generally useful.
Microsoft Entra ID application registration
Why wrong: Entra ID is for authentication, not field mapping.
Power Automate flows
Why wrong: Flows may be used but are not the first thing to check for sync issues.
Dual-write mapping configurations
Incorrect mappings cause field-level sync issues.
Data management framework export settings
Why wrong: Export settings are for data entities, not dual-write.
Answer choices
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
Dual-write mapping configurations
Option C is correct because dual-write mapping configurations define how financial dimension values are synchronized between Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations and Dataverse. If the mappings are incorrect or incomplete, specific dimension values will not sync properly. Verifying these mappings is the first logical step before investigating other integration components.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Answer analysis
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
Microsoft Entra ID application registration
Why it's wrong here
Entra ID is for authentication, not field mapping.
Power Automate flows
Why it's wrong here
Flows may be used but are not the first thing to check for sync issues.
Dual-write mapping configurations
Why this is correct
Incorrect mappings cause field-level sync issues.
Clue confirmation
The clue word "first" in the question point toward this answer.

Data management framework export settings
Why it's wrong here
Export settings are for data entities, not dual-write.
Common exam traps
The trap here is that candidates often jump to authentication (Entra ID) or data export settings, overlooking that dual-write mapping configurations are the direct control for field-level synchronization.
Detailed technical explanation
Dual-write uses pre-defined entity maps in the Dual-write application module to synchronize data between Finance and Operations and Dataverse. Each financial dimension is mapped to a specific attribute in the target entity; if the mapping is missing or incorrectly configured (e.g., wrong source/target field), the dimension value will not sync. A real-world scenario is when a new custom financial dimension is added in Finance and Operations but not included in the dual-write mapping, causing it to be absent in Dataverse.
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.
