Background
Wide World importers is a distribution company whose primary customers are small boutique shops which sell globally-sourced products including unique or hand-crafted items such as perfumes and ceramicware. Through the Wide World Importers sales cycle, the commission-based sales team identifies opportunities and negotiates with shops by using a quoting process. The products may or may not already exist in the company’s current product list.
The company has the following divisions and areas of responsibility:
Current environment
Wide World Importers use Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. There is a single legal entity.
The primary distribution center for the company is located Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. There is an additional warehouse in California which receives imported goods from container ships. When goods are received in California, the goods are transferred to Nevada for distribution. No orders ae shipped directly from California.
Requirements. Sales
The company has two teams of sales representatives: East and West. Each team has one representative for each of the following categories of goods: perfumes, ceramicware, and all other goods. Sales representatives are paid commissions based on sales. Commissions must be paid based on the home office location for customers. For example, commission for a customer that is headquartered in the Western United States is paid to the West group of sales representatives.
Sales representatives are responsible for driving new business. Company executives must be able to see metrics that define the companies that the sales representatives are targeting, where there is potential to do business, and where quotes are being generated. Customer records must not be created until a sale is confirmed.
The sales team quoted a new perfume for a customer named Customer1. The customer has shipping locations in the following regions: United States, Austria, and Japan. Sales must only be made to the US and Japan due to product ingredients. Automated checks must be put into place so that users do not have to remember to select the correct item.
Requirements. Testing
The company periodically performs testing on ceramicware as it is received to determine whether the products contain lead. The company labels and markets ceramicware as Lead Free or Not for food use. Perfumes may contain restricted ingredients that cannot be sold to customers in the European Union. The company performs testing on perfumes and has processes to ensure that perfumes containing restricted ingredients are not sold to customers in Europe.
Ten percent of all ceramicware items received must be tested for lead. The process for managing testing must be automated. There must be tolerances setup that define the acceptable amount of lead levels in a product.
Requirements. Inventory management
The inventory team must control costing of items by using FIFO principles. The finance team must be able to see updated FIFO adjustments throughout the month but will only settle FIFO for month-end reporting.
Inventory close must be run at the end of each month. A report must be provided to the finance team that includes the physical quantities and inventory value for items, with totals at the bottom. The warehouse team needs a similar report but does not want the inventory value included. During inventory close, some items cannot be fully costed because the issue cannot be settled against the receipt. The finance team must know which items were excluded.
Other inventory requirements
– Inventory must be reserved against physical inventory.
– Items must be grouped so that the inventory costing can posted to the ledger by using the following groups: perfumes, ceramicware, other goods. All goods are FIFO. Financial reports must be grouped by these three categories, even though transactions from all categories posts to the same ledger accounts.
– Wide World Importers plans to import a specific type of pottery from a local company in Mexico that handmakes the goods. The pottery must be available in orange or red colors. The cost is the same regardless of the color selection.
– A new line of perfumes is being introduced. The procurement team must be able to identify which perfumes are men’s or women’s fragrances, and must be able to further categorize perfumes as Perfume, Eau de Perfume, Eau de Toilette, Eau de Cologne, or Eau Fraiche.
– You must set up a structure of products for classifying each item for purchase, sales, and reporting analysis.
Issue
Customer service representatives report that some inventory shows as ordered reserved when the ordered reserved parameter is turned off.
An item that is typically carried is out of stock. A customer named Customer2 wants to place a special rush order for the item. This will result in a significantly increased cost from the supplier. The finance team does not want to have this special order affect the FIFO tiers.

Background
Adventure Works Cycles builds stock and custom mountain bikes and is headquartered in San Diego.
It has the following assembly and warehouse locations:
– Denver, Colorado, United States
– San Diego, California, United States
– Budapest, Hungary
Most manufacturing is outsourced, with each facility only assembling the bikes. Parts are stocked at all facilities and may be transferred between warehouses or legal entities. All of the parts are at standard cost.
Current environment. Organizational structure
The following diagram shows the structure of Adventure Works Cycles.
– Each of the physical locations in the United States (US) is a warehouse.
– Hungary assembles and distributes products to the rest of the European Union (EU).
– The EU legal entity is expected to add additional warehouse locations.
– All legal entities roll up to a financial consolidation company.
Current environment. Purchasing
– Higher quality tires that are used in new orders have become popular. Due to the volume of orders, the company wants to negotiate pricing with VendorC. The vendor agrees to a discounted price for 500 tires purchased within the next six months. Once the 500 tires have been purchased, the discount will be re-evaluated based on demand.
– Once a purchase is approved, for audit purposes it cannot be changed.
– Whenever possible, parts are purchased from vendors also within the EU. A purchase order was placed for a bike seat manufacturer in Italy.
– Parts for custom orders may not always be kept in stock and will need to be procured.
Current environment. Purchasing requisitions
The following flow chart depicts the purchase requisition process:
Requirements. Purchasing
– Items for purchase requisitions are governed by each country. Each of the country-specific products will be grouped together for selection.
– Purchase orders must follow the requisition process.
– All existing purchase orders for brakes must account for the change to VendorB.
Requirements. Inventory
– Standard costs are based on purchase fluctuations within a single month.
– Tires use floating zones due to limited warehouse space.
Requirements. Operations
Due to recent brake failures, Adventure Works Cycles plans to purchase brakes from VendorB instead of VendorA. Although the brakes from Vendor B will continue to use the same item number as the brakes from VendorA, the price is slightly higher from VendorB. Adventure Works Cycles will pay list price from VendorB. The order for VendorB needs approval and the usual approver for purchase requisitions is on vacation.
All brakes from VendorA that are in stock must be tested. The process for brake testing must be implemented for all inbound orders. Quality orders must be automatically created upon receipt of the first shipment against a purchase order only.
UserC needs to consolidate brake inventory after it has been cleared for sale.
Ordering of the new brakes order will incur an additional cost because it is a rush order.
Requirements. Custom orders
– Custom orders are placed for items that do not exist in the item master.
– Hungary does not process custom orders.
– The United States does process custom paint orders. Most custom paint colors are special order and require purchase requisitions.
– Quotes must be obtained from a minimum of two suppliers per company policy and compared for the shipping, costs, and other variables. Quotes will not be selected based on lowest price only.
Issues
– A special order for 26 high-end tires is received. This item is no longer in stock from the current vendor.
– Goods have been received in stock, but the matching invoice has not yet been received at the time of month close.
– UserA needs to set up pricing for the items purchased from VendorC and ensure that accounting validates the receipt and invoice against the agreement.
– UserB needs to send out a request for quotation (RFQ) for custom paint. The vendor will be selected based on pricing, volume discounts, and lead time.
You need to set up the procurement category hierarchy in accordance with company policy.
What should you do?
- A . Add four nodes to the category hierarchy, one for US, one for Hungary, one for California, and one for Colorado.
- B . Create category hierarchy nodes per each country underneath the consolidated legal entity.

Background
Adventure Works Cycles is high-end bicycle manufacturer in North America. The company sells 40 standard models as well as 100 limited-edition models per year to boutique retailers domestically.
Adventure Works has had the most success with the limited-edition bicycles. These bicycles have high margins, high demand, and a strong following with the younger generation biking community.
Current environment
Technology
During a recent global pandemic, the sales of bicycles increased enormously. To support this growth, Adventure Works is going to invest in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to standardize and streamline operations. Operations are currently managed with a custom enterprise resource planning (ERP) system and Microsoft Excel worksheets that address ERP product gaps.
Many processes are still maintained in Excel worksheets and then loaded into the ERP application.
Adventure Works wants to implement only those Dynamics 365 features that are areas of future investment for Microsoft, even if it means they implement fewer features.
Bicycles
✑ Bicycle models can either be standard or made in a limited-edition release.
✑ Bicycles are built based on a single item number that can have different sizes and frame styles. The sizes are XS, S, M, L, and XL. The frame styles are Male, Female, and Unisex.
✑ The size and frame style combinations have different prices and barcodes.
✑ All other bicycle properties are informational only.
✑ Information-only properties do not have standardization or validation, which makes it easy to mistype data during product entry and difficult to identify mistakes.
✑ Some limited-edition bicycles are not properly marked as limited edition in the current product management system due to the yes/no key indicator defaulting to no. This causes significant issues with item searching and reporting on the different bicycle models.
Limited-edition bicycles
✑ The most recent limited-edition models include integrated face mask holders and extra storage containers welded to the bicycle frame.
✑ The bicycles are restricted to one purchase per retailer per week.
✑ The bicycles are announced on social media and are available for sale to retailers on the same day they are announced.
✑ Customers can buy the bicycles at retailers shortly after they are announced.
✑ The bicycles are sometimes available only through charity auctions.
Sales
✑ Due to the global pandemic, it is difficult to keep products in stock. Retailers are buying as much inventory as possible each week.
✑ Retailers email their sales to Adventure Works. The sales team in charge of each retailer manually enters the information into a shared Excel worksheet.
✑ Retailers are required to submit one consolidated sales order by Wednesday every week so that the Adventure Works fulfillment team can organize and adjust sales order quantities based on availability.
✑ Retailers are invoiced every three to five weeks. Adventure Works uses a manual process for invoicing. The increased volume of purchases makes it difficult to keep up with invoicing.
✑ To accommodate the demand for the Adventure Works limited-edition bicycles, the sales team enters orders for these items for fulfillment as soon as they appear on the SKU list.
✑ Retailers can sometimes bypass Adventure Works order restriction policy. When this happens, it creates additional work for the fulfillment team.
Outbound
✑ Finished bicycles are assigned a unique code to identify and track each bicycle.
✑ Each bicycle that is picked for an outbound order is transferred to a quality control bench where it undergoes a 21-point mechanical inspection.
✑ Bicycles that pass the mechanical inspection have their unique bicycle identification number recorded in the completed inspection list. The number is also recorded in the shipping manifest for customers to be able to verify that the bicycle that was tested is the one that they received.
✑ If a bicycle does not pass the mechanical inspection, the bicycle is moved to a quarantine location and another bicycle is picked and tested as a replacement for the order.
Inventory
✑ Replenishment is simple but manual. It is currently all handled in Excel.
✑ Every bicycle part for each standard model has a line in an Excel worksheet.
✑ Adventure Works wants each storage space in the warehouse to be filled to capacity with the current products.
✑ The team knows how many bill of materials (BOM) items can fit in the spaces without overflowing.
✑ BOM items that make up the bicycles have different storage capacities.
✑ Adventure Works uses Excel worksheets to make decisions about planned orders by period based on the supply and demand for finished bicycles.
Wheels
✑ There are four types of wheels for all the bicycle models.
✑ Customers often order a spare tire.
✑ Wheels sometimes just disappear from the warehouse storage.
✑ Adventure Works purchases wheels from only one manufacturer.
Master planning
✑ There is no formal master planning process.
✑ Replenishment activities occur weekly.
Requirements
Bicycles
All BOM items used the manufacturing process must be configured as unique products in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
The following manufactured bicycles’ properties must be configured in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management:
• Size: XS. S, M, L, XL
• Frame style: Men, Women, Unisex
• Limited edition: [Blank], No, Yes
• Year: 2010-2020
• Manufacturer’s note: Free form text up to 250 characters
• Rear suspension travel: 130 millimeters, 150 millimeters
• Full suspension: No, Yes
Sales
✑ Limited-edition bicycles must be systematically restricted to one bicycle per sales order. Overrides must not be allowed.
✑ Retailers must automatically be invoiced once a month in a consolidated invoice for all delivered sales orders.
✑ Limited-edition model bicycles must not be allowed for inclusion on sales orders until the bicycles’ official release date.
Outbound
✑ A bicycle’s unique identification number must systematically be created as part of the standardized business process.
✑ Bicycles must be pulled from a bin location in a First In, First Out (FIFO) inventory model and moved to a packing station.
Inventory
✑ Overflow of any bicycle parts in the warehouse must be prevented, except for wheels.
✑ System-generated recommendations to adjust Adventure Works’ on-hand stock of wheels based on historical trends must be provided.
✑ BOM items must be replenished before they run out. There must always be quantity available on-hand.
✑ The system must maintain all inventory requirements through automated processes.
Master planning (MRP)
✑ The tool that replaces the Excel worksheet must be able to show the supply and demand for the product family of finished bicycles and BOMs by period in a single screen. This single form screen will also be used for general supply and demand inquiry only and not require intensive processing tasks. Inquiries to this form may result in non-system decisions and not with creating any planned orders.
✑ The tool must allow for the creation of new planned production, sales, purchase, and transfer orders.
✑ The MRP solution must have the best performance possible and allow for planned orders to be run in the middle of the day.
✑ Planned orders that will not be firmed must not be changed. Adventure Works wants to be able to reference the planned orders later against any manual orders created until they feel more comfortable with the system.
✑ Once Adventure Works is comfortable with the numbers that the system recommends, Adventure Works wants to implement a mechanism to fully automate the generation of orders.

Background
Trey Research is a multinational manufacturer of health and dietary supplements based in Seattle, Washington. The company is experiencing a rapid expansion not only in its supplements but as a lifestyle brand that also sells apparel. The supplements and apparel businesses operate independently but manufacture and operate in the same legal entity.
Current environment
Current environment. Technology
Trey Research is migrating from an outdated, on-premises version of Dynamics AX to Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. The company wants to retain a lot of its current data structures and processes but adopt new efficiencies when the benefit is obvious. The company uses a third-party e-commerce site that is custom developed by an internal developer.
Current environment. Items
Product numbering
All items are numbered by using a smart numbering format: [Product SKU+Size+Color+Style]. For reporting, items are queried for sales and inventory reports by using the first six digits of the item number or until the first dash is encountered.
• A t-shirt could be 01001-S-Red for item 1001 in a size small with the color red.
• A single energy drink could be 02001-12oz or 02001-20oz for the different sizes that product 02001 is sold in.
Product attributes
• All clothing shares the same set of product attributes.
• Supplements may share the same Product SKU but can have different attributes for the different size, color, or style variations of the product.
• Product attributes that are unnecessary for an item should be excluded from the item.
Pricing
• All items always have a default price. This price will not expire.
• An item will have four different prices created for it every month, one for each customer tier, as detailed later in this section. The pricing expires at the end of the month. If no special pricing is created, the default item price will be used.
• The monthly sales price in which the additional price breaks are determined is based on the estimated cost of the manufactured items.
• Customers are categorized into four pricing tiers (A, B, C, and D) based on sales volume over the past 12 months.
• Customers can negotiate special pricing for items in 30-day, 60-day, and 90-day increments. Quantity restrictions may be placed, depending on the item discount and promotion.
• Promotional pricing is not used today. Pricing is restricted to monthly prices and customer-specific contract pricing.
Cost
Items use a FIFO costing model today in their current Dynamics AX 2009 environment; however, using the FIFO costing method has created problems.
Current environment. Warehouse and inventory
• Warehouse requirements are simplistic. There is only one site. The site has two warehouses.
• Trey Research needs to make sure that any energy drinks and nutritional supplements are manufactured and packaged with the highest standards. Trey Research automatically inspects products when all products are reported as finished. All products are inspected again when the items are picked.
• Energy drinks require independent tests to check for dents in packaging, carbonation levels, and fill level.
• Nutritional supplements require separate tests for packaging, expiration date, product seal, and product labeling.
• Government compliancy and consistency testing are handled outside of the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system.
• Resalable products are placed on one of two racks in the warehouse.
Requirements
Requirements. Technology
• Trey Research will integrate all pricing and discount capabilities to its e-commerce website.
Requirements. Items
• Reporting on products should be streamlined as much as possible.
• The item numbering does not have to equate to the actual item number.
• The future costing methods adopted must be commonly accepted for manufacturers.
• Inventory costing should be done after a full inventory valuation is complete. It should take into consideration the direct materials, direct labor, and overhead that goes into an item.
• Any costing method used needs the ability to track cost records about an item, cost categories, and calculation formulas for indirect costs.
• The profitability for nutritional supplements manufacturing processes needs to be expressed in terms of the cost categories for routing operations and the calculation formulas for manufacturing overheads.
• If a vendor can no longer deliver the raw materials for the energy drinks due to supply chain issues, the costs for using an alternative vendor to source the raw materials should be used to determine the impact on profits.
• Apparel items will not be upgraded to the new costing method until after the go-live date due to resourcing and implementation limitations from the apparel team.
Requirements. Pricing
• Trey Research plans to do promotional pricing. Certain products will receive special pricing during the hours of extreme sporting events that Trey Research sponsors. Before or after the event, normal pricing will resume.
Requirements. White labeling
• Trey Research wants to start white labeling its products under the brands of major nutritional retail store brands. These products would only be sold to specific customers.
• Trey Research will provide and maintain a ‘Compare to’ price for customers to use to compare the white-labeled products. This Compare to price will also be the default item price for the customer if the customer accidentally lets a contract price expire.
• The configuration of these restrictions must be applied automatically when creating new products for those customers.
Requirements. Warehouse and inventory
• If products in the warehouse must be blocked from transactions for a specific reason, such as a health and safety review, warehouse users should be able to block the products quickly from the ERP system.
• All product quality tests should be processed in a uniform and consistent manner.
• Creation of any quality processes for products inbound to the warehouse, from the production line, or outbound from the warehouse to consumers should be automatically created to facilitate execution.
• Testing requirements:
Requirement 1: 100 percent of all nutritional supplements and 50 percent of all energy drinks must be tested when production orders are completed. After a product is in testing, 100 percent of all tests must be completed.
Requirement 2: 75 percent of all nutritional supplements and energy drinks should be tested against their required tests during an outbound process.
Damaged products must be placed in one of four bins (based on product type) during the inspection process.
You must define quarantine zones to optimize product visibility throughout the testing process.
HOTSPOT
You need to configure the pricing for the white-labeled products.
Which system object should you configure? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Explanation:
Box 1: Price Group
Note: Requirements. White labeling
• Trey Research will provide and maintain a ‘Compare to’ price for customers to use to compare the white-labeled products. This Compare to price will also be the default item price for the customer if the customer accidentally lets a contract price expire.
Price Group
In Microsoft Dynamics AX, price groups can be used to specify a set of prices that you want apply to a group of customers, vendors, or items.
* For item transactions, prices are derived from price groups that are referenced in trade agreements in the Sales and marketing module.
Box 2: Trade allowance
Note: Customers are categorized into four pricing tiers (A, B, C, and D) based on sales volume over the past 12 months.
Promotional fund and Trade allowance agreement
A trade allowance agreement is an incentive program where pay-for-performance monetary rewards are offered to customers that achieve specific volume targets and/or behavioral goals. Promotional funds are budgeted expenditures. In that way, the promotional campaigns can be captured.
Box 3: Price Group
You need to configure the system to automatically enforce inbound and outbound product requirements to and from the warehouse.
Which feature should you use?
- A . quality associations
- B . quality orders
- C . quarantine zones
- D . quality tests
- E . nonconformances
B
Explanation:
Note: If products in the warehouse must be blocked from transactions for a specific reason, such as a health and safety review, warehouse users should be able to block the products quickly from the ERP system.
You can block inventory items in the following ways:
Manually
By creating a quality order
By using a process that generates a quality order
By using inventory status blocking
Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/supply-chain/inventory/inventory-blocking
You need to define the number of quarantine zones.
How many should you define?
- A . 1
- B . 2
- C . 4
- D . 6
- E . 8
C
Explanation:
Scenario:
* Damaged products must be placed in one of four bins (based on product type) during the inspection process.
* You must define quarantine zones to optimize product visibility throughout the testing process.
Four bins for the damaged product types, so we need four quarantine zones.
Note: You use the Quarantine zones page to define zones that can be assigned to nonconformances.
Examples of quarantine zones
Example 1
You work at an electronics manufacturing company that produces and distributes televisions, speakers, and media players. In this case, you can configure a quarantine zone to represent each type of product.
Example 2
Three bins and two racks are used to store items that are nonconforming. In this case, you can configure five quarantine zones, one for each bin and each rack.
Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/supply-chain/inventory/quality-quarantine-zones
DRAG DROP
You need to configure the system for the new products that the company produces.
Which product type should you use? To answer, drag the appropriate product types to the correct products. Each product type may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Explanation:
Box 1: Product
Current environment. Items
Product numbering
All items are numbered by using a smart numbering format: [Product SKU+Size+Color+Style]. For reporting, items are queried for sales and inventory reports by using the first six digits of the item number or until the first dash is encountered.
• A t-shirt could be 01001-S-Red for item 1001 in a size small with the color red.
• A single energy drink could be 02001-12oz or 02001-20oz for the different sizes that product 02001 is sold in.
Product attributes
• All clothing shares the same set of product attributes.
• Supplements may share the same Product SKU but can have different attributes for the different size, color, or style variations of the product.
• Product attributes that are unnecessary for an item should be excluded from the item.
Box 2: Product variant
Product masters and product variants
In an agile world, where products must be quickly adapted to customer requirements, product definitions specify a set of products instead of distinct products. In Supply Chain Management, those generic products are known as product masters. Product masters hold the definition and rules that specify how distinct products are described and behave in business processes. Based on these definitions, distinct products can be generated. These distinct products are known as product variants.
A product master is associated with a product dimension group and a configuration technology to specify the business rules. The product dimensions (Color, Size, Style, and Configuration) are a specific set of attributes that can be used throughout the application to define and track specific behaviors of the related products. These dimensions also help users search for and identify the products.
DRAG DROP
You need to determine the costing versions for the requirements.
Which costing versions should you use? To answer, drag the appropriate costing versions to the correct requirements. Each costing version may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Explanation:
Box 1: Planned
If a vendor can no longer deliver the raw materials for the energy drinks due to supply chain issues, the costs for using an alternative vendor to source the raw materials should be used to determine the impact on profits.
Planned costs
A costing version can contain a set of planned cost records about items and manufacturing processes. A costing version that contains planned costs is often used to support cost calculation simulations, such as simulations of the effect that cost changes to purchased materials or manufacturing processes has on the calculated costs of manufactured items. The item cost records for planned costs can also be used to support an actual cost inventory model by providing the initial values for item costs. These values include the calculation of planned costs for manufactured items.
Box 2: Standard
The profitability for nutritional supplements manufacturing processes needs to be expressed in terms of the cost categories for routing operations and the calculation formulas for manufacturing overheads.
Standard costs
A costing version can support a standard cost inventory model for items, where the costing version contains a set of standard cost records about items and manufacturing processes. Cost data about manufacturing processes is expressed in terms of the cost categories for routing operations and the calculation formulas for manufacturing overheads.
HOTSPOT
You need to configure the extreme sports discounts.
Which component should you use? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Explanation:
Box 1: discount
Requirements. Pricing
Trey Research plans to do promotional pricing. Certain products will receive special pricing during the hours of extreme sporting events that Trey Research sponsors. Before or after the event, normal pricing will resume.
Box 2: periodic
A discount period defines the period during which a price adjustment or discount is valid.
Box 3: catalog
A product catalog is a collection of products with their pricing information. The product catalog entities let you create a rich product classification system in Dynamics 365 for Customer Engagement that provides support for:
* Defining multiple pricing and discounting models. You can also use custom pricing instead of the Customer Engagement system pricing to calculate prices when you associate a product or bundle to an opportunity, quote, order, or invoice. Further, you can select whether to apply discounts for products at the per-unit or line level.
* Etc.
Note: Price groups are at the heart of price and discount management in Commerce. Price groups are used to assign prices and discounts to Commerce entities (that is, channels, catalogs, affiliations, and loyalty programs). Because price groups are used for all pricing and discounts, it’s very important that you plan how you will use them before you start.
* trade agreement discounts
The capability to work with categories is a key differentiator between discounts and trade agreement discounts, and the main reason that we discourage you from using trade agreement discounts. Categories are organized in a multi-level hierarchy. By contrast, the item discount groups that are used by trade agreements are only a single level of grouping, and each group is specific to one of the three trade agreement discount types, such as Line discount, Multiline discount, and Total discount. Therefore, for trade agreements, if you want to use the same set of products in all three trade agreement discount types, you must create and manage three independent discount groups.
* An affiliation identifies customers who are members of a group, or are associated with one, for example, seniors or students. Before you can add affiliations to customer records, you must set up affiliations and their discounts.
HOTSPOT
You need to configure the products in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management for the requirements.
Which system objects should you use? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Explanation:
Box 1: Product dimension
There are five product dimensions: color, configuration, size, style, and version.
Box 2: Product variant
Product variants are also referred to as items. An item is a tangible product, which isn’t the same as a service.
A product variant can be generated based on the product dimension values.
Example
A company sells denim jeans. The item, Jeans, uses the color and size product dimensions. The jeans are sold in three different colors and six different sizes. The colors are blue, black, and brown. The sizes are XS, S, M, L, XL, and XXL. Not all sizes are available in all three colors. If all combinations were available, there would be 18 different types of jeans. However, in this example, only the following nine product variant combinations are produced.

Box 3: Tracking dimension
Scenario: If products in the warehouse must be blocked from transactions for a specific reason, such as a health and safety review, warehouse users should be able to block the products quickly from the ERP system.
You need to configure automated testing for the following tasks:
• inbound processes from manufacturing
• outbound processed from the warehouse picking process
How many processes should you configure?
- A . 2
- B . 3
- C . 4
- D . 10
B
Explanation:
One process the inbound processes from manufacturing.
Two outbound processed, one for nutritional supplements and one energy drinks.
Note: Creation of any quality processes for products inbound to the warehouse, from the production line, or outbound from the warehouse to consumers should be automatically created to facilitate execution.
• Testing requirements:
Requirement 1: 100 percent of all nutritional supplements and 50 percent of all energy drinks must be tested when production orders are completed. After a product is in testing, 100 percent of all tests must be completed.
Requirement 2: 75 percent of all nutritional supplements and energy drinks should be tested against their required tests during an outbound process.
DRAG DROP
You need to configure quality controls.
Which solution objects should you configure? To answer, drag the appropriate solution objects to the correct configurations. Each solution object may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Explanation:
Box 1: Test groups
Requirement 1: 100 percent of all nutritional supplements and 50 percent of all energy drinks must be tested when production orders are completed. After a product is in testing, 100 percent of all tests must be completed.
You use the Test groups page to set up, edit, and view test groups and the individual tests that are assigned to them. The upper part of the page shows the test groups, and the lower part shows the tests that are assigned to a selected test group.
You assign several policies to a test group, such as a sampling plan, an acceptable quality level (AQL), and the requirement for destructive testing. Then, when you assign an individual test to a test group, you define additional information, such as the sequence, documents, and validity dates. For a quantitative test, the information that you define also includes the acceptable measurement values. For a qualitative test, the information includes the test variable and default outcome.
The test group that is assigned to a quality order defines the default set of tests that must be performed on the specified item. However, you can add, delete, or change tests for the quality order. Test results are reported for each test on a quality order.
Box 2: Quality groups
Requirement 2: 75 percent of all nutritional supplements and energy drinks should be tested against their required tests during an outbound process.
Quality groups
A quality group represents common testing requirements for items.
Use and create item quality groups to logically group products so that they can be assigned to quality associations for the automatic generation of quality orders.
Example of an item quality group
A manufacturing company purchases various raw materials that have the same testing requirements for incoming inspection. Therefore, the company defines a quality group and then assigns the item numbers that are associated with the raw materials to that group. Later, the company purchases a new type of raw material that has the same testing requirements. Instead of setting up new testing requirements for the new material, the company adds the item number for the new material to the existing quality group.
Trey Research is now live on Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
You need to apply the new cost model for the apparel items.
What should you do?
- A . Run Inventory close.
- B . Close all production orders.
- C . Configure Backflush costing.
- D . Run a BOM calculation.
A
Explanation:
Apparel items will not be upgraded to the new costing method until after the go-live date due to resourcing and implementation limitations from the apparel team.
The inventory close process settles issue transactions to receipt transactions, based on the inventory valuation method that is selected in the item’s item model group. As part of the settlement process, you can specify that the general ledger should be updated, so that it reflects the adjustments that have been made. However, until inventory close or recalculation has been run, issue transactions are posted at the calculated running average cost price.
After inventory close, you can no longer post in periods that are before the inventory closing date that you set, unless you reverse a completed inventory close process. For example, if inventory close is run for the period that ends on January 31, you can’t post transactions that have a date that is earlier than January 31.

Background
School of Fine Art is a distribution company that sells school supply items to primary and secondary schools. These include items such as pens, pencils, paper, notebooks, chalk, desks, acrylic paints, blackboards, dry erase markers, and whiteboard paint. Due to increased demand for colored pencils, lead times are longer for these pencils. School of Fine Art plans to expand sales into this market.
School of Fine Art plans to implement Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to manage the business.
Current environment. Company structure
School of Fine Art consists of two legal entities.
Primary company
• Located in Dublin, Ireland.
• Has a single named warehouse.
• Is the primary distribution center for both companies.
Second company
• Is located in Glasgow, Scotland.
• Includes the following warehouses:
Glasgow1, Glasgow2. Glasgow1 is used primarily to supply items regionally.
Glasgow2 serves as local storage for vendor-owned inventory and bulk storage for School of Fine Art’s inventory.
Current environment. General processes
School of Fine Art uses a combination of spreadsheets and paper forms to manage the business.
• All sales, purchases, and inventory are tracked in spreadsheets that are password protected by managers.
• Managers frequently share spreadsheet passwords so that other users can make edits on their behalf. Inventory quantities and values are unreliable.
• The spreadsheets are often incorrectly updated, have entry errors, and broken formulas for calculations.
• Purchase order receipts, picking lists, packing slips, and invoices are all handwritten on pre-printed, three-part forms.
• Late summer is the company’s busiest time. During this time, workers are typically on the warehouse floor or making rush deliveries to schools to meet last-minute needs.
Current environment. Inventory and warehousing
• School of Fine Art values inventory by using FIFO costing methods.
• Inventory in the warehouses cannot be distinguished as available inventory or inventory that is sold to a customer and waiting to be picked. This creates inventory inflation during cycle counts and later shortages because warehouse workers count items that are already promised to customers and waiting to be shipped.
• Glasgow2 space is fully allocated to vendors.
• Due to space constraints, school orders for photocopiers are shipped from the vendor to the school.
• Crayons are stored as separate item numbers depending on whether they are in a box or a case. This creates issues when counting inventory to determine the total number of crayons in stock.
• Lack of inventory controls has led to shortages on sales orders, creating backorders and unhappy schools.
• Inventory is ordered quarterly due to the seasonality of the business.
• Items can change annually based on popular sizes, colors, and styles for each new school season. The creation of the different configurations is a manual process, which creates so much overhead that temporary workers are brought in to do the data entry.
Current environment. Purchasing
• Reordering is manually managed by the buyers looking at the seasonal spikes for the start of the school year, slowing around the end-of-year holidays until the following school year.
• Pens are readily available products that are rarely discounted for sale.
• Photocopiers are only available for sale on the Glasgow region.
• Photocopy paper and construction paper are ordered by the pallet into Dublin1 and must be broken down into smaller sizes. The pallets are typically broken down and then split between what stays in Dublin1 and what is shipped to Glasgow1.
• Chalk and blackboards are slower sellers, so many vendors do not carry these items. School of Fine Art purchases these products from a single vendor. There are no alternative vendors available.
• School of Fine Art agrees to purchase a new line of smartboards from a vendor. The agreed-upon smartboard purchase prices will have a cost price per 55-inch, 75-inch, or 85-inch smartboard.
• The company purchases pencils for the following warehouses:
Glasgow1:
• standard pencils from Vendor A
• colored pencils from Vendor B
Dublin1:
• standard pencils from Vendor A
• colored pencils from Vendor A
• As whiteboard paint grows in popularity, so does the demand. This causes supply shortages. Whiteboard paint is ordered six months in advance.
Current environment. Customer sales
• The company contractually agrees to prices for some items with schools prior to the start of each school year.
• Schools may order bulk cases of products and choose to distribute further breakdowns, such as a case of crayons, which are then distributed to classrooms by the box.
• Pens do not require contracts with schools because they are low margin and do not have supply chain shortages.
• Painting supplies such as acrylic paint, canvases, and easels do not require a special contract and are sold at regular list price to all schools.
• Schools that offer painting classes are part of a program that provides special pricing on the painting supplies.
• Chalk and blackboards are ordered less frequently than they were in past years. Schools are choosing to use whiteboard paint, which is a lower cost than ordering and installing the whiteboards.
Requirements. Customers and sales
• The system must have the ability to limit product purchase amounts by a single school to prevent stock shortages for other schools.
• Schools are obligated to purchase the agreed amount for specific items per the school year.
• Customer service must be able to easily enter items for sales orders and identify stock shortages.
• Sales of whiteboard paint must be limited so that one school does not buy all the inventory and force backorders for other schools.
• Schools must agree to the amount of whiteboard paint they will purchase for the whole school year.
Requirements. Inventory costing
• Inventory must have associated costs except for the vendor storage in Glasgow2.
• The vendor storage must still contain quantities but not include cost in inventory valuations.
• At the end of each month, the costing manager must be able to identify how many items will not be fully settled.
• Annual configuration changes to items must be automatically created where possible.
• The company must be able to track costs for colored pencils and standard pencils separately.
Requirements. Inventory
• Warehouse workers must be able to use their mobile phones and the mobile app to take calls and create transactions in the warehouse.
• The desks must use a single item number and barcode regardless of year manufactured and the vendor.
• Water-based paints from the vendor must be received in pails.
• Acrylic paint must be managed by batches and expiration dates.
• Pencils must be categorized as colored pencils or standard pencils. The individual colors of each colored pencil (such as red, green, and blue) will not be tracked.
• The creation of unique smartboard items must be kept to a minimum.
Issues
• WarehouseWorker1 works in Glasgow2. The worker receives a request to ship pallets of paper from the warehouse to Glasgow1 and Dublin1. WarehouseWorker1 must create the shipments in the system to transfer the pallets of paper from Glasgow1 to Dublin1.
• The number of backorders for desks has increased. Customer service representatives struggle to select a desk item number that has inventory on hand. The desks are the same item, but the manufacturer vendor and year differ.
• A school calls customer service to report that its photocopier is broken. The school needs expedited shipment of a replacement.
• A school that is part of the special paint program reports that a sale price on canvas last month was a better price than its paint program price. The school requests a price adjustment.
• A school reports that different shipments of acrylic paints are slightly different in color.
• The sales team decides to have a flash sale on pens for one month only. The person entering the Sales order line should be able to communicate the information to the customer on the Sales order line.
• Schools are reporting that chalk and blackboards are broken upon receipt. A worker in Dublin1 opens some cases of these products in the warehouse and finds that they are also broken. You must implement processes to enforce inventory inspection for a percentage of each purchase order line received. You must block all inventory for a purchase order line if the inspection fails.

- A . Quantity commitment
- B . Max is enforced
- C . Price and discount is fixed
- D . Minimum release amount
- E . Maximum release amount
A,B
Explanation:
A: Commitment types
Each line in a purchase agreement is a commitment to buy something. You can use lines from multiple purchase orders (POs) to fulfill the commitment.
There are four types of commitments:
Product quantity commitment C You purchase a specific quantity of a product. Product value commitment C You purchase a specific currency amount of a product. Product category value commitment C You purchase a specific currency amount in a procurement category. The amount can be for a catalog item or a non-catalog item. Value commitment C You purchase a specific currency amount of any product or products in any procurement category.
Policies for purchase agreements
B: The following policies affect the way that the link between a purchase agreement commitment and the corresponding PO lines works:
Max is enforced C The total quantity or amount for all order lines can’t exceed the quantity or amount that is specified on the related commitment.
Price and discount is fixed C The price on an order line and the price on the related commitment must be the same. If the price is changed on the order line, the link to the commitment is broken. If the link is broken, the order line doesn’t contribute to the fulfillment of the commitment.
Minimum release amount and Maximum release amount C If an amount is specified, you receive a message if you make any change to an order line that causes the order line to differ from the related commitment.
Note: As whiteboard paint grows in popularity, so does the demand. This causes supply shortages. Whiteboard paint is ordered six months in advance. Requirements. Customers and sales
(A) Schools must agree to the amount of whiteboard paint they will purchase for the whole school year.
(B) Sales of whiteboard paint must be limited so that one school does not buy all the inventory and force backorders for other schools.

You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Explanation:
Box 1: Standard
Standard conversions C Set up standard conversion rules for all products.
Box 2: Intra-class
Crayons are stored as separate item numbers depending on whether they are in a box or a case. This creates issues when counting inventory to determine the total number of crayons in stock.
Intra-class conversions C Set up product-specific conversion rules for units in the same unit class. For example, you can set up a conversion rule for a product that converts a box to the number of pieces in a box. Pieces and boxes are both assigned to the Quantity unit class.
Incorrect:
Inter-class conversions C Set up product-specific conversion rules for units across unit classes. For example, you can set up a conversion rule for a product that converts kilograms to liters. Kilograms are assigned to the Mass unit class and liters are assigned to the Liquid volume unit class.

Box 1: Price group
A school that is part of the special paint program reports that a sale price on canvas last month was a better price than its paint program price. The school requests a price adjustment.
Trade Agreement Logic
Before we go and set up a trade agreement let’s first discuss how the system evaluates trade agreements. When Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations evaluates trade agreements it tries to find the most specific pricing that falls within the validity dates.
What I mean by “most specific” pricing is, the system checks the “Party type code” as well as the “Product code type” to see if there is a valid price specific to that customer or vendor for the specific product selected on the sales order or purchase order line respectively. Then if it cannot find that most specific combinations it looks for the next level up which are the price groups and then finally if it can’t find prices at the group level it looks for prices that may apply to all vendors or customers.
Box 2: Find next on trade agreement line for select customers only
The next trade agreement type is a line discount. As the name suggests a line discount will appear on the sales order line as a percentage discount or a per unit discount depending on how the trade agreement is set up.

A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to manage inventory.
Backorders exist on customer sales orders because incorrect data was given on product quantities.
Users need to look up what quantity can be sold and when more product will arrive.
Solution: Ordered shows what quantities are on inbound orders to the warehouse.

Explanation:
Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/supply-chain/inventory/inventory-on-hand-list
HOTSPOT
A company is implementing Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. Inventory is valued through FIFO costing.
The company is preparing for cutover and go-live activities. The accounting manager wants to ensure that on-hand inventory is brought into Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management at the correct cost.
Item A has the following costing tiers:
• Tier 1: 20 each, $5
• Tier 2: 20 each, $10
• Tier 3: 20 each, $15
You need to configure the item and journals to meet the cutover requirement.
What should you configure? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Explanation:
Box 1: item model group
Item model groups contain settings that determine how items are controlled and handled on item receipts and issues. They also determine how item consumption is calculated. Select FIFO for this procedure.
Note: FIFO with the Include physical value option
If the Include physical value checkbox is selected for an item on the Item model group page, the system uses both physical and financial receipt transactions to calculate the running average cost price. Where applicable, the system also adjusts the physically updated issue transaction. Inventory close that uses the FIFO inventory model makes settlements only to transactions that are financially updated.
The illustration that follows shows these transactions:
1a. Inventory physical receipt for a quantity of 1 at a cost of USD 10.00 each.
1b. Inventory financial receipt for a quantity of 1 at a cost of USD 10.00 each.
2a. Inventory physical receipt for a quantity of 1 at a cost of USD 20.00 each.
2b. Inventory financial receipt for a quantity of 1 at a cost of USD 22.00 each
Box 2: Counting by tier
Counting journals let you correct the current on-hand inventory that is registered for items or groups of items, and then post the actual physical count, so that you can make the adjustments that are required to reconcile the differences. You can associate counting policies with counting groups to help group items that have various characteristics, so that those items can be included in a counting journal.
A company uses Planning Optimization. The company uses the product lifecycle state setup to exclude some items from planning. Items may exist in more than one warehouse.
What configuration is required so that Planning Optimization excludes these items?
- A . Planning Optimization will respect the lifecycle state if it is enabled from Lifecyle Services.
- B . The items will respect the lifecycle state if manual planning on the warehouse setup is set to No.
- C . The items will respect the lifecycle state if manual planning on the warehouse setup is set to Yes.
- D . The product lifecycle state must be set up on the items only.
- E . Planning Optimization will respect the lifecycle state if it is enabled from Feature management.

Box 1: price group, affiliations
Price groups are at the heart of price and discount management in Commerce. Price groups are used to assign prices and discounts to Commerce entities (that is, channels, catalogs, affiliations, and loyalty programs). Because price groups are used for all pricing and discounts, it’s very important that you plan how you will use them before you start.
If you want to apply customer-specific prices, we recommend that you not set price groups directly on the customer. Instead, you should use affiliations.
Box 2: trade agreement, customer
Trade agreements are fixed price or discount agreements that are set up for one or more customers or vendors for the sale or purchase of single or multiple products.
Trade agreements can apply to the following:
A specific customer, a vendor, or a product
Groups of customers, vendors, or items
All customers, all vendors, or all items
