MB-330 Practice Question: Implement Warehouse and Transportation Management
A warehouse manager needs to ensure that high-value items are always moved to a secure cage location during put-away. How should this be implemented?
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often suggest using only a Location Directive query, forgetting that a Directive code is necessary to link the Work Template to a specific, unique Location Directive configuration.
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 a Directive code in the Work template and Location directive.
Using 'Directive codes' is the standard way to link a specific work template operation to a particular location directive. By assigning a unique directive code to the put-away work step and referencing it in the location directive query, you ensure the system specifically targets the secure cage. This provides the necessary inventory control required for high-value goods in a busy warehouse environment.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Modify the Work template to include a fixed location.
Why it's wrong here
Work templates define the work process flow, but they do not manage the mapping of items to specific physical locations. Hardcoding a location into the template is not possible and would violate the system's dynamic warehouse management architecture, which relies on directives.
- ✓
Use a Directive code in the Work template and Location directive.
Why this is correct
Directive codes act as a bridge between the work template and location directives. By tagging the put-away step with a code and creating a corresponding location directive for that code, you force the system to select the specific secure location for those items.
- ✗
Set the item to 'Fixed location' in the Warehouse setup.
Why it's wrong here
Fixed locations are used for standard picking replenishment. While they ensure items have a home, they do not inherently restrict inbound movements based on item value or security requirements, making them ineffective for the specific use case of securing high-value inventory.
- ✗
Configure a Wave template to filter by item value.
Why it's wrong here
Wave templates are used to process outbound shipments and grouping, not inbound put-away processes. Attempting to influence put-away logic via wave template configuration is functionally incorrect, as these domains operate on different logical paths within the warehouse module.
