MB-920 Practice Question: Describe the core capabilities of the finance and operations apps
You are a system administrator for a company that uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. The warehouse manager reports that pickers are frequently going to the wrong locations for items, causing delays. The warehouse uses a directed putaway and picking process. Currently, location profiles are set up but not optimized. The manager wants to ensure that items are stored in locations that minimize travel time and that pickers are directed to the correct locations. The warehouse has 10,000 SKUs and high turnover. Which configuration should you implement?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse operational features like wave processing or barcode scanning with strategic inventory placement, failing to recognize that slotting is the specific capability designed to optimize location assignment based on velocity.
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
✓
Use the location stocking limits and zone-based slotting to assign items to optimal locations based on velocity.
Location stocking limits and zone-based slotting in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management allow you to assign items to optimal locations based on velocity (pick frequency). This ensures high-turnover items are stored in easily accessible zones, minimizing travel time and directing pickers to correct locations, directly addressing the warehouse manager's requirements.
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 wave processing for order picking.
Why it's wrong here
Wave processing manages order picking but not storage location optimization.
- ✓
Use the location stocking limits and zone-based slotting to assign items to optimal locations based on velocity.
Why this is correct
Zone-based slotting optimizes storage locations based on item velocity, reducing travel time.
- ✗
Implement barcode scanning for all warehouse transactions.
Why it's wrong here
Barcode scanning helps accuracy but not location optimization.
- ✗
Set up location profiles with fixed locations for all SKUs.
Why it's wrong here
Fixed locations may not optimize travel time for high-turnover items.
