• Question 361:

  A company has multiple legal entities. The company is implementing Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management

  Purchase orders are generated from multiple legal entities. To reduce shipping costs, the purchase orders must be consolidated into multiple shipping containers of the same type and placed onto a single vessel for inbound receipt into the country/region.

  You need to configure the path of the shipping containers. What should you configure?

  A. Voyage

  B. Route

  C. Journey

  D. Route segment

  Correct Answer: B

• Question 362:

  A caulking manufacturer is implementing Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. When caulking is produced, it is sold by tubes, 1-gallon cans, 5-gallon buckets, 55-gallon drums, or 330-gallon totes with potential to add other sizes.

  The manufacturer wants to ensure that when new units are added, only one conversion is set up that does not require conversions between each unit of measure.

  You need to configure the unit of measure to meet the requirement.

  What should you use?

  A. Unit class

  B. Conversion formula

  C. Formula layout

  D. Base unit

  Correct Answer: D

  Helpful in unit conversions without need to define all conversions to and from with this unit and other units in same unit class.

  Base unit

  Set this option to Yes to use the current unit as the base unit for its unit class. In this case, you only have to specify the conversion factor between the base unit and each additional unit in the unit class. The system can then convert between

  all units in that unit class. Therefore, it's easier to set up conversions.

  For example, if gallon is the base unit for the Volume unit class, you only have to set up conversion factors from quart to gallon and from pint to gallon. The system can then also convert from quart to pint.

  You can have only one base unit per unit class.

  The production controller must allocate the required resources during the maintenance period.

  You need to configure the system to meet the controller's requirements.

  Which two options should you configure? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  A. Attributes

  B. Counters

  C. Maintenance plans

  D. Asset service levels

  E. Maintenance requests

  Correct Answer: BC

  Explanation:

  A maintenance plan defines when a pre-planned preventive maintenance job is to be carried out on an asset. Maintenance plans can be related to assets, asset types, functional locations, or functional location types, but first you create the

  maintenance plans to be used in your company.

  A maintenance plan can have multiple maintenance plan lines. Maintenance job type and interval are specified on the maintenance plan line. There are two types of maintenance plan lines:

  Time

  Counter

  Maintenance plan lines of type "Time" are used for recurring planned maintenance based on a fixed time interval. Maintenance plan lines of type "Counter" are used for planned maintenance or reactive maintenance based on asset counter

  registrations. A maintenance plan may include several maintenance plan lines of both types.

  Incorrect:

  Not E: Maintenance request lifecycle states

  Maintenance request lifecycle states define the stages that a request can go through. Examples include Created, Active, and Ended. When a maintenance request is converted to a work order, the maintenance request lifecycle state should

  be updated to Ended or Closed to indicate that the maintenance request is no longer active. On the All maintenance requests list page, you can view all maintenance requests, regardless of their lifecycle state.

• Question 366:

  A manufacturing company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.

  The company replaced its burners to limit carbon dioxide emissions. The new burners require frequent servicing to be compliant with environmental regulations. The new burners are more complex and take longer to service than the previous burners.

  The production controller must track fuel use in liters to schedule timely maintenance. The additional time taken to plan maintenance must be considered.

  You must configure the system to meet the requirements.

  Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  A. Register consumption.

  B. Configure counter types.

  C. Set up asset service level.

  D. Configure asset BOM.

  E. Create attributes.

  Correct Answer: AD

  Explanation:

  A: Register consumption

  When a maintenance job has finished, the next step is to register the consumption and post the information to the journals.

  Registrations consist of the following consumption types:

  Hours Items Expenses

  D: asset bills of materials (BOMs) in Asset Management. The Asset BOM page shows a list of all items (spare parts and other items) that are used on an asset during its whole lifetime. When you create a new asset, you should consider setting up an asset BOM as a part of the setup procedure. In this way, you can track item history for the asset from the creation date.

  After you've completed a maintenance job, and item consumption has been registered on a work order, you can track consumption of spare parts and other items that are used on the asset. This functionality lets you keep a complete item

  consumption record for all your assets. For example, you can use the record to monitor whether a specific spare part is often replaced, or to keep track of the spare parts or other items that are currently used on an asset.

  Incorrect:

  Not B: Counter types are used to make counter registrations on assets, for example, regarding number of production hours, or quantity produced on the asset. Asset types are related to the counter types. This means that a counter can only

  be used on an asset if the counter is set up on the asset type used on the asset.

  Before you can make counter registrations on assets, you first create the counter types you want to use in Counters. Next, you can create counter registrations on assets in Counters.

  Counters can be used on maintenance plans. A maintenance plan line can be of type "Counter", for example, relating to number of production hours or quantity produced.

  A counter registration can be updated manually or automatically based on production hours or quantity produced. A counter can be set up to use one of three update methods (selected in the Update field in Counters):

  Manual - you must manually register counter values.

  Production hours - the counter is automatically updated based on number of production hours.

  Production quantity - the counter is automatically updated based on number of quantity produced.

  Note

  A related counter is automatically updated only if the related counter has the asset type, to which it is related, in the counter setup. For example: You set up a counter for "Production hours" and add the asset type "Truck Engine". When that

  counter is updated, a related counter "Oil" is also updated with the same counter values. The setup in Counters includes the setup on "Hours". Also, on the "Oil" counter, the asset type "Truck Engine" should be added to the Asset types

  FastTab to ensure the counter relation. See the screenshots below for an example of the setup on the Hours and Oil counters.

• Question 367:

  A company is implementing Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.

  Based on a vendor agreement, the company must take ownership of items when they are shipped. Items must be part of inventory valuation but not available for sale until they are physically received into the warehouse.

  You need to configure the system to meet the vendor's requirements.

  What should you configure?

  A. Landed cost

  B. Item group

  C. Item status

  D. Item arrival

  E. Transportation management

  Correct Answer: A

  Explanation: Item ownership In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, goods are typically received at the warehouse destination and then invoiced. However, under most international trade agreements, a business takes ownership of goods from the time when they leave the original port, before they've been physically received. Landed cost enables businesses to invoice goods before they've been physically received. This concept is known as a goods in transit order. It creates a new type of order to manage the receipt of goods after the original purchase order has been invoiced.

• Question 368:

  A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management and the FIFO valuation method for inventory.

  The company's warehouse experienced a roof leak. The leak caused damage to items in the warehouse. Accounting must know the total cost of inventory that is damaged but does not want the damaged items removed from inventory until they have been inspected.

  You need to meet the requirements of the accounting department.

  Which two features should you use? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  A. Stop item for inventory transactions

  B. Movement journal

  C. Order holds

  D. Location profile

  E. Inventory status

  Correct Answer: AE

  Explanation:

  E: An inventory status is one of the dimensions in the storage dimension group. Inventory statuses can be categorized as available or unavailable, and you can use the Inventory blocking parameter to block items that have an unavailable inventory status. Items that have a blocked status are considered physical inventory, and they can't be used on a production order, sales order, transfer order, or outbound transaction.

  You can use warehouse items that have either available or unavailable inventory statuses for inbound work. For example, you create an available status that is named Ready, an unavailable status that is named Damaged, and a blocked status that is named Blocked.

  When you create a purchase order for received or returned items, if any items are damaged or broken, you can change the inventory status of those items to Damaged on the purchase order line. After these items are received, the status is automatically set to Blocked.

  A: Blocking items by using inventory status blocking You can specify which inventory statuses are blocking statuses by using the Inventory blocking parameter on the Inventory statuses page. You can't use inventory statuses as blocking statuses for production orders, sales orders, transfer orders, outbound transactions, or project integrations. For outbound work, use items that have an available inventory status. If items have a status of Broken, and master planning is run on those items, the items are considered missing, and inventory is automatically replenished.
