• Question 11:

  How can you automatically update the conditions in an already created purchasing info record?

  A. Select the Info Update indicator when creating a purchase order

  B. Select the Info Update indicator when creating a contract release order

  C. Select the Info Update indicator when maintaining a quotation

  D. Select the Info Update indicator when maintaining a contract

  Correct Answer: C

  The conditions in an already created purchasing info record can be automatically updated by selecting the Info Update indicator when maintaining a quotation from a vendor. This indicator tells the system to update or create purchasing info records with the conditions from the quotation when saving it. The other options do not update the conditions in an existing purchasing info record, as they either create new purchasing info records or do not affect them at all.

• Question 12:

  What are some characteristics of a goods issue posting to a production order? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

  A. Actual costs are allocated to the production order.

  B. The goods issue can be posted as a backflush.

  C. The reservation is deleted as a result of the goods issue

  D. The goods issue can only be a planned goods issue.

  Correct Answer: AB

  Explanation: A goods issue posting to a production order allocates actual costs to the production order and reduces the inventory of the issued materials. A goods issue can be posted as a backflush, which means that the system automatically issues the components that are required for production based on the bill of material (BOM) and the quantity produced.

• Question 13:

  What are some of the prerequisites to use a stock determination strategy for a material in management? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.

  A. Assign a stock determination group in the material master record

  B. Assign a stock determination rule to the business transaction in Customizing

  C. Assign a stock determination strategy to the material type in Customizing

  D. Customize a stock determination rule and assign it to the storage type

  E. Customize a cross-application strategy for stock determination

  Correct Answer: BDE

  The stock determination strategy is a set of rules that defines how the system selects a suitable stock for a material requirement. To use a stock determination strategy for a material in management, some prerequisites are needed. First, a stock determination rule must be assigned to the business transaction in Customizing. This rule specifies which stock types and special stocks are allowed for the transaction. Second, a stock determination rule must be customized and assigned to the storage type. This rule defines the sequence in which the system searches for available stock within the storage type. Third, a cross-application strategy for stock determination must be customized. This strategy determines how the system selects a storage location and a batch for the material requirement. The other options are not prerequisites, as they are optional or not related to the stock determination strategy. References: [SAP Help Portal], [SAP Community]

• Question 14:

  What can you configure when defining a new moveme this question? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.

  A. The quantity string for quantity updates

  B. The value string for account determination

  C. The dynamic availability check

  D. The allowed transactions

  E. The field control

  Correct Answer: BDE

  A movement type is a key that determines how goods movements are updated in inventory management and accounting. When defining a new movement type, you can configure some of the following aspects:

  The value string for account determination, which means that you can define which accounts are posted during the goods movement based on the valuation area, valuation class, account category reference, transaction/event key, etc. The

  allowed transactions, which means that you can define which transactions (such as goods receipt, goods issue, transfer posting, etc.) are possible with the movement type.

  The field control, which means that you can define which fields are mandatory, optional, or hidden in the material document for the movement type. References:

• Question 15:

  What are the prerequisites for carrying out material requirements planning (MRP) for a plant?

  Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

  A. Maintain planned independent requirements lot the materia s in the plant.

  B. Maintain MRP data in the material master record for the materials to be planned automatically.

  C. Assign each storage location of the corresponding plant to an MRP area in Customizing.

  D. Maintain plant parameters for the corresponding plant in Customizing.

  Correct Answer: BD

  Material requirements planning (MRP) is a process that calculates the net requirements and generates planned orders or purchase requisitions for materials based on various factors, such as demand, supply, lead time, lot size, safety stock,

  etc. To carry out MRP for a plant, some prerequisites are needed. Two of them are:

  Maintain MRP data in the material master record for the materials to be planned automatically: This prerequisite is necessary, as the MRP data contains the parameters that control how the system plans the material, such as MRP type, MRP

  group, MRP controller, lot size, procurement type, special procurement, etc. Without these parameters, the system cannot determine the optimal quantity and timing of the material requirements.

  Maintain plant parameters for the corresponding plant in Customizing: This prerequisite is necessary, as the plant parameters define the global settings that apply to all materials in the plant, such as planning horizon, planning calendar,

  opening period, scheduling margin key, etc. These settings influence how the system calculates the dates and quantities of the planned orders or purchase requisitions.

• Question 16:

• Question 17:

  What are some key features of the SAP Smart Business key performance indicator (KPI) tiles used for purchasing analytics? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.

  A. Insight to Action provides drilldown capabilities and appropr iate actions.

  B. When a tile is changed, the database is updated in real time.

  C. Smart controls such as smart filter and smart charts are available.

  D. Smart alert thresholds can be set to update the tile display at different intervals.

  Correct Answer: AD

  Explanation: The SAP Smart Business key performance indicator (KPI) tiles are interactive dashboards that provide real-time insights and analytics for purchasing processes. Some of the key features of these tiles are:

  Insight to Action: This feature allows the user to drill down into the details of the KPI and perform appropriate actions based on the analysis. For example, the user can view the purchase requisitions that are overdue and create purchase

  orders for them directly from the tile.

  Smart alert thresholds: This feature allows the user to set different thresholds for the KPI values and change the color or icon of the tile accordingly. For example, the user can set a red alert if the purchase requisition-to-order cycle time

  exceeds a certain limit. The tile will display a red icon and notify the user of the critical situation.

• Question 18:

  B. Enter a value for the quantity received

  C. Adjust the purchase order quantity to the goods receipt quantity

  D. Split the quantity received to multiple storage locations

  E. Post the quantity received to quality inspection stock

  Correct Answer: ADE

  Explanation: When you post a goods receipt to stock with reference to a purchase order, you can perform the following actions:

  Post a goods receipt for part of the order quantity, which means that you can receive multiple partial deliveries for the same purchase order item. Split the quantity received to multiple storage locations, which means that you can distribute the

  goods receipt quantity among different places where materials are physically stored within a plant.

  Post the quantity received to quality inspection stock, which means that the materials are subject to a quality inspection before they can be used or sold. References: [SAP S/4HANA Sourcing and Procurement | SAP Learning], Course S4510,

• Question 20:

  You want to identity the spend of purchase orders that do NOT have a contract reference, although an existing contract could have been used. What key performance indicator (KPI) provides this information?

  A. Contract leakage

  B. Off-contract spend

  C. Unused contracts

  D. Purchase order value

  Correct Answer: A

  Contract leakage is a key performance indicator that measures the percentage of purchase orders that do not have a contract reference, although an existing contract could have been used. It indicates how well the procurement organization is utilizing its contracts and avoiding unnecessary spending. Off-contract spend is a similar concept, but it measures the absolute value of purchase orders that are not covered by contracts. Unused contracts are contracts that have not been used at all or have been used below a certain threshold. Purchase order value is the total value of purchase orders created in a given period.
