MB-310 Manage Budgeting Practice Question

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

• ✗

  Enable budget control on the Purchase order journal name.

  Why it's wrong here

  This is incorrect because enabling budget control on a journal name is not the first step. You must first set up budget models and budget control rules. The journal name setting is used to specify which journal types are subject to budget control, but it comes after the basic configuration.

• ✗

  Create a budget control rule that includes the MainAccount dimension and set the budget check to 'Enforce'.

  Why it's wrong here

  This is a necessary step, but it is not the first step. Before creating a budget control rule, you must define the budget model and budget codes that will be used, because the rule references those. Without a budget model, the rule cannot be configured.

• ✓

  Define a budget model and budget codes for the fiscal year.

  Why this is correct

  This is correct because budget models and budget codes are the foundation for budget control. They define the budget types and the budgets that will be checked. Without them, you cannot create a budget control rule or perform budget checks. So this is the first step.

• ✗

  Configure the budget control parameters to allow over-budget entries.

  Why it's wrong here

  This is wrong because allowing over-budget entries contradicts the requirement to prevent purchase orders from exceeding the budget. The budget control parameters should be set to enforce the budget, not to allow over-budget entries. Also, this is not the first step.
