MB-330 Implement and Manage Supply Chain Processes Practice Question
A distribution company uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management with Warehouse Management. They want to ensure that when receiving a purchase order, the system automatically generates a putaway work for items that are not already in the warehouse. Which configuration is required to achieve this?
⚠ Common exam trap
The trap here is assuming that a location directive or a mobile device menu item alone can trigger putaway work generation, when in fact a work template is required to create the work.

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
✓
Configure a work template with a work order type of 'Purchase order' and include a putaway work type.
To automatically create putaway work when receiving a purchase order, the system must have a work template configured for the purchase order work order type that includes a putaway work type. This template is used by the work creation process to generate the appropriate work. Without it, no putaway work will be created, and items would remain in the receiving location.
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 a work template with a work order type of 'Purchase order' and include a putaway work type.
Why this is correct
This is correct because the work template defines the sequence of work types for a given source document. For putaway to be generated during purchase order receiving, the work template must include a putaway work type and be associated with the purchase order work order type. This ensures that the system creates putaway work when receipts are registered.
- ✗
Create a mobile device menu item for putaway and assign it to the warehouse worker.
Why it's wrong here
A mobile device menu item allows a worker to perform putaway, but it does not automatically generate putaway work upon receipt. The work must first be created by the system based on the work template. Menu items are for execution, not generation.
- ✗
Enable the 'Generate putaway work' option in the Warehouse management parameters.
Why it's wrong here
There is no such parameter. Work generation is controlled by work templates and work policies, not a global parameter. Enabling a non-existent option would not produce the desired result. The correct approach is to set up a work template that includes putaway work for purchase order receipts.
- ✗
Set up a location directive with a query that filters on the item number and warehouse.
Why it's wrong here
A location directive determines the locations for putaway, but it does not trigger the creation of putaway work. It is used after work is created to direct the putaway to specific locations. Without a work template that includes putaway work, the directive alone will not generate work.
