Microsoft Certified: Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management Functional Consultant Associate practice questions

Question 1

A procurement analyst at an industrial-supplies distributor is rolling out predefined product variants and needs purchase documents to inherit the right tax group per variant. The analyst must decide what the platform does when a specific item sales tax group is assigned to a released variant for procurement and a purchase order is created. Per Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management documentation, which option matches?

Accepted Answer

The item sales tax group assigned to the variant for procurement is used by default on the order.

Answer

The procurement category hierarchy on the variant determines the tax group for the purchase order.

Answer

The purchase order ignores variant tax data and uses only the vendor's default tax group instead.

Answer

Procurement documents always reuse the sales-side tax group because procurement has none of its own.

Question 2

A quality team is rolling out quarantine handling in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management and wants a path to quarantine one specific received lot even though the relevant item model group does NOT have Quarantine management enabled. The team must decide how to achieve this. What is the correct behavior?

Accepted Answer

Manually creating the order on the Quarantine orders page works; the item need not be set up for quarantine management

Answer

Automatic quarantine orders are generated for the receipt only once the model group's Quarantine management box is selected

Answer

A batch disposition code set to quarantined blocks the receipt without moving it to the quarantine warehouse

Answer

An inventory blocking record of type Quality order moves the receipt into the designated quarantine warehouse

Question 3

A transportation coordinator at an industrial equipment wholesaler is rolling out multi-stop routes and must decide how the stops along a route have to be modeled in the platform. Per Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management documentation, which option matches?

Accepted Answer

Each stop must be defined as a hub, and a hub can be a vendor, a warehouse, a customer, or a reloading place.

Answer

Each stop must be defined as a load, and a load can be a vendor, a warehouse, a customer, or a reloading place.

Answer

Each stop must be defined as a wave, and a wave can be a vendor, a warehouse, a customer, or a reloading place.

Answer

Each stop must be defined as a segment, and a segment can be a vendor, a warehouse, a customer, or a carrier change.

Question 4

A company is migrating its consignment stock process into Supply Chain Management and must record the transfer of ownership of consignment inventory from the vendor to the legal entity that consumes it. The team must decide which inventory journal performs this. Per Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management documentation, which option matches?

Accepted Answer

The Inventory ownership change journal, posted under a journal name of type Ownership change

Answer

The inventory movement journal, which adjusts on-hand quantity and value by financial dimension

Answer

The inventory transfer journal, which moves stock between two different warehouse sites

Answer

The inventory counting journal, which reconciles counted amounts against the on-hand

Question 5

A platform team is migrating its master planning workload to the Planning Optimization service and must decide how data flows between Supply Chain Management and that external service during a planning run. Which statement describes the documented behavior?

Accepted Answer

Supply Chain Management sends master data and transactional data to the Planning Optimization service

Answer

Supply Chain Management copies only summarized forecast totals and keeps every transaction on-premises

Answer

The Planning Optimization service writes planned orders straight into an Azure Machine Learning workspace

Answer

The service keeps planned order results permanently even after the Planning Optimization Add-in is removed

Question 6

A D365 Supply Chain Management consultant is rolling out variant configuration for a footwear brand and the merchandising team has decided to drive variants from a product's physical dimensions, so the consultant must decide what the platform actually allows here. Per Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management documentation, which option matches?

Accepted Answer

Physical dimensions cannot create variants; they sit on the master and are shared by all its variants

Answer

Physical dimensions can create variants once a dimension group that contains them is set on the master

Answer

Physical dimensions create variants only after a nomenclature embeds them into the variant number

Answer

Physical dimensions create variants only when the configuration technology is set to dimension-based

Question 7

A reliability manager at a chemical plant is evaluating how Asset Management attributes maintenance costs when a pump is moved between functional locations over its life, and must decide which statement reflects the documented behavior. Per Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management documentation, which is correct?

Accepted Answer

Asset costs are always related to the functional location that the asset was installed on at the given time of the cost.

Answer

All maintenance costs follow the asset record only, so relocating the asset reassigns its whole cost history to the new location.

Answer

Costs are split evenly across every functional location that the asset has ever been installed on during its lifetime.

Answer

Costs are related to the asset type rather than to any functional location, no matter where the asset happens to be installed.

Question 8

A warehouse manager at a wholesale distributor is rolling out warehouse mobile-device detours for an exception path that interrupts the main pick task. The manager is being asked how a detour is supposed to behave at the design level. Per Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management documentation, which option matches?

Accepted Answer

A detour is a separate menu item that workers can open from a step in a main task, and at the end of the detour, the worker returns to the place where they left the main task.

Answer

A detour cannot copy any field values from the main task to the detour menu item, so all data must be re-entered manually by the worker.

Answer

A detour cancels the main task as soon as it is opened, so workers must restart the original pick from the beginning when they finish the detour menu item.

Answer

A detour is a finance-side journal posting type and is unrelated to warehouse mobile-app worker flows.

Question 9

A landed-cost analyst at an importer is rolling out over/under processing for inbound voyages and must decide exactly what over/under tolerances control. The analyst is evaluating how the system treats a gap between the quantity actually received and the quantity that was purchased. What do over/under tolerances define?

Accepted Answer

When a difference between actual and purchased quantities creates an over/under transaction

Answer

The maximum number of voyages a vendor may ship before a new purchase agreement is needed

Answer

The currency exchange rate applied to landed-cost charges when the invoice is finally costed

Answer

The share of inbound freight cost that may be capitalized into inventory value upon receipt

Question 10

A demand planner at a pharmaceutical distributor is rolling out safety stock replenishment and must decide how the master planning engine actually behaves when on-hand inventory dips toward the minimum. Per Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management documentation, which option matches what the master planning engine does?

Accepted Answer

The system always tries to prevent the accumulated quantity of an item from falling below its safety stock limit, and whenever the master planning engine detects that the accumulated on-hand inventory for an item will fall below its minimum, it creates a planned order to replenish the item and schedules the order to arrive before the minimum threshold is crossed.

Answer

The master planning engine waits until on-hand inventory reaches zero before suggesting any safety stock replenishment, allowing the safety stock buffer to be fully depleted before action is taken. Master planning in Supply Chain Management therefore lets safety stock fully deplete to zero before any planned order is suggested for replenishment, and the planner is expected to issue a manual purchase order from the shortage report to bring the on-hand quantity back above the safety stock minimum after the buffer has been consumed.

Answer

Safety stock replenishment must be triggered manually by the planner, because Master planning has no automatic mechanism to detect when on-hand inventory will fall below the minimum.

Answer

Safety stock replenishment in master planning is computed only once per fiscal quarter, regardless of how soon on-hand inventory will fall below the minimum threshold.

Question 11

A D365 Supply Chain Management consultant is rolling out product variant numbering for an apparel maker that wants variant identifiers to embed the master number, dimensions, and number sequences, and the consultant is tasked with stating which segments the variant-number nomenclature can actually include. Per Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management documentation, which option matches?

Accepted Answer

Master number and name, product dimension IDs and names, number sequences, text constants, and attributes

Answer

Only the product master number and a single static text constant chosen on the released product form

Answer

Only number sequences and product dimension IDs that the warehouse mobile device can scan at receipt

Answer

Storage dimension groups, tracking dimension groups, and the item sales tax group applied per variant line

Question 12

A supply chain consultant is splitting a multi-warehouse network for an automotive parts wholesaler and must explain how the reservation hierarchy ranks specificity from less specific to more specific. Per Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management documentation, which option matches?

Accepted Answer

The lower the value in the Reservation hierarchy level column of the grid, the less specific the level is, and the higher the value, the more details are required to make a reservation on the level.

Answer

The lower the value in the Reservation hierarchy level column, the more inventory dimensions are required to place a reservation at that level.

Answer

Reservation hierarchy levels are ordered alphabetically by inventory dimension name and not by a numeric specificity column on the hierarchy grid.

Answer

Reservation hierarchy levels are flat — there is no concept of less specific or more specific levels in the Warehouse management reservation hierarchy.

Question 13

A warehouse manager at an electronics assembly facility is rolling out planned cross-docking to bypass the putaway step for inbound items already promised to outbound orders. The manager is being asked how cross-docking works at the design level. Per Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management documentation, which TWO options match?

Accepted Answer

Cross-docking is a warehouse process where the inventory quantity that is required for an order is directed straight from receipt or creation to the correct outbound dock or staging area, and all remaining inventory from the inbound source is directed to the correct storage location through the regular put-away process.

Accepted Answer

Before you can run cross-docking, you must configure a new cross-docking template, where the supply source and other sets of requirements for cross-docking are specified.

Answer

Cross-docking can only be run after the inbound inventory has completed the regular putaway flow and been physically placed in a long-term storage location.

Answer

Cross-docking is configured exclusively on the procurement category hierarchy node and not on any cross-docking template inside the Warehouse management module. The cross-docking template inside the Warehouse management module has been deprecated, so the warehouse manager must configure all cross-docking behavior on procurement category hierarchy nodes inside Product information management instead of authoring a dedicated template under Warehouse management.

Question 14

A logistics analyst at an electronics importer is tasked with closing a voyage line whose registered receipt quantity falls outside the configured over-delivery and under-delivery tolerances. Given the constraints, the analyst must decide what has to happen before that voyage line can move forward. What does the system require in this situation?

Accepted Answer

The voyage line must be modified and resolved before it can be closed for processing

Answer

The voyage line is automatically closed and the quantity variance is posted to a write-off

Answer

The over/under tolerance is widened automatically so the receipt fits and the line closes

Answer

A separate quality order is raised and the voyage line is rerouted to an inspection hub

Question 15

A planning analyst is evaluating coverage group options and must decide what strict safety stock pegging makes the engine do when customer demand competes with safety stock for an existing planned order. Which behavior is documented?

Accepted Answer

The engine keeps the planned order pegged to safety stock even if customer demand is unfulfilled

Answer

The engine re-pegs the planned order to customer demand first and leaves safety stock unfulfilled

Answer

The engine splits the planned order evenly between safety stock and the competing customer demand

Answer

The engine cancels the planned order whenever safety stock and customer demand compete in a period
