MB-920 Practice Question: Describe the core capabilities of the finance and operations apps
This MB-920 practice question tests your understanding of describe the core capabilities of the finance and operations apps. Read the scenario carefully and evaluate each option against the stated constraints before committing to an answer. 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.
You are importing a general journal entry using the data entity. The JSON above represents a single line. Based on the data, what should be the credit entry to balance the journal?
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
MainAccount 201000 with Credit 1000.00
The general journal entry must balance with equal debits and credits. The JSON shows a debit of 1000.00 to MainAccount 110000 (Cash). To balance, the credit entry must be for the same amount, 1000.00, to a liability or equity account. MainAccount 201000 (Accounts Payable) is a typical credit-side account, making option A correct.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
✓
MainAccount 201000 with Credit 1000.00
Why this is correct

Related concept
Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
✗
MainAccount 110000 with Credit 1000.00
Why it's wrong here
A cash account would be credited, but the debit is an expense, so credit to liability is typical.
✗
MainAccount 601000 with Credit 1000.00
Why it's wrong here
Using the same account would net to zero and is not standard.
✗
MainAccount 601000 with Debit 0.00 and Credit 0.00
Why it's wrong here
A balancing entry is required; zero would not balance.
Common exam traps
Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword
The trap here is that candidates may assume the credit must go to the same account as the debit (Cash) to 'balance', not realizing that double-entry requires a different account on the opposite side.
Detailed technical explanation
How to think about this question
In Dynamics 365 Finance, the GeneralJournalAccountEntry data entity enforces double-entry accounting where the sum of debits must equal the sum of credits for each journal. The system validates this at import; if unbalanced, the import fails. Real-world scenarios often involve importing vendor invoices where the debit goes to an expense or asset and the credit to Accounts Payable, requiring precise mapping of main accounts.

TExam Day Tips
→Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
→Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Real-world example
How this comes up in practice
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.
