Microsoft Microsoft Certifications MB-335 Questions & Answers
Question 21:
A manufacturing company uses master planning in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
Purchase orders for a raw material are created more frequently than needed. This results in missed discounts with the vendor who sells the raw material.
The raw material items have a 30-day lead time. The company is willing to delay sales and production order demand that may consume the raw material for up to 15 days to consolidate purchase orders.
You need to configure the setup to include lead time and consolidate purchase orders.
What should you configure?
A. positive days
B. dynamic negative days and negative days
C. negative days only
D. dynamic negative days only
Correct Answer: B
* Dynamic negative days
Dynamic negative days consider the item's lead time and the negative days that you specified. The system will create a new planned purchase order, based on the negative days time fence that is calculated by using the following formula:
Lead time + Negative days + Current date ?Requirement date The system uses only the planned supply orders that are within this time fence, and it creates a new planned order outside it. The advantage of dynamic negative days is that it will include the individual product lead time, to reuse existing orders and avoid creating new planned orders that will end up with a later day, due to delays caused by lead time.
Incorrect:
*
Negative days
Negative days indicate how late item receipts will be allowed. They represent the number of days that you're willing to wait before you order new replenishment when you have negative inventory or don't have enough inventory. Negative days
answer the question, Should we create a new purchase order for the item, or should we use an existing purchase, even though we know that the item will be late?
*
Positive days
Positive days indicate how far in the future master planning considers the current inventory or receipts to fulfill a future demand. For example, if the positive days are set to 100, the current inventory can be used to fulfill demand in the next 100
days. If there is an order 150 days from the current date, master planning will create a planned order to satisfy that demand, even though the on-hand inventory for the item can satisfy the order. For fast-moving items that have a short lead
time, you might not want to use the on-hand inventory for an order that is far in the future. In this fast-moving case, the current on-hand inventory will be gone quickly, and more orders could be placed in the future to fulfill a future demand on
time, which would be possible due to the short lead time of the item.
You use the master planning module for Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
Planned production orders have been created.
Several sales orders are canceled in response to concerns about recent online reviews of a product.
You need to enable the appropriate action message.
Which action message should you enable?
A. Increase
B. Decrease
C. Advance
D. Postpone
E. Derived actions
Correct Answer: B
Decrease - The system will generate action messages when production orders, purchase orders, and other receipt transactions should be decreased to prevent excess inventory levels.
Incorrect:
*
Increase - The system will generate action messages when production orders, purchase orders, and other receipt transactions should be increased to prevent shortages in inventory.
*
Advance - The system will generate action messages, as they are needed, to move orders to an earlier date. In the Advance margin field, you can specify the maximum number of days that can pass between a receipt and an issue without an advance action.
*
Postpone - The system will generate action messages, as they are needed, to move orders to a later date. In the Postpone margin field, you can specify the maximum number of days that can pass between a receipt and an issue without a postpone action.
*
Derived actions - Action messages that are created for receipt transactions will be propagated to any derived requirements, and the necessary action messages will be generated for the receipt transactions that satisfy those requirements.
A company that makes artisan chocolate has implemented Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
The top selling chocolate bar for the company must contain 85 percent cocoa. The cocoa can be obtained from either cocoa beans, cocoa butter or a combination of both, depending on supply at the time of production. The top three
substitutions for the cocoa butter ingredient are configured in the system.
When you run master planning, all substitutions are out of stock at the manufacturing plant, but in stock at a secondary warehouse.
You need to process the planned orders.
Which type of planned order would be generated?
A. Sales order
B. Transfer order
C. Purchase order
D. Production order
Correct Answer: B
You can use warehouse levels to create a hierarchy that supports transfer orders between warehouses. Based on this setup, master scheduling calculates item requirements at the individual warehouse level and generates planned transfer orders from an assigned source warehouse to fulfill them.
A company has three jobs in a job queue. JobB and JobC start while JobA is in progress. The following table shows the estimated production time for each job.
The actual work hours and total bundle time are shown in the following table.
You need to calculate the allocated time for JobA by using a job allocation key. What is the total allocated time for JobA?
A. 1 hour
B. 2 hours
C. 4 hours
D. 6 hours
E. 8 hours
Correct Answer: B
Jobs allocation key
The formula for calculating allocated time. Here is the formula: Time per job = Total bundle time ?Number of jobs
Time per job = 6 hours / 3 = 2 hours
Note:
Estimation allocation key
Formula for calculating allocated time. Here is the formula: Time per job = Total bundle time ?(Estimated job time ?Total estimated time)
A company uses production orders to assist with timely inventory delivery to the shop floor.
Inventory items for production orders are not being delivered from the warehouse in time for the production runs.
You need to ensure that the inventory items are available when needed.
Which option should you select?
A. Route card
B. Job scheduling
C. Job card
D. Batch job
Correct Answer: B
You can schedule a production order with operations and job scheduling.
Note: You can use job scheduling to schedule individual jobs or shop orders, and to control the manufacturing environment. Job scheduling breaks down each operation into its individual tasks or jobs. These jobs are then assigned to the
operations resources that will perform them. Job scheduling also lets you synchronize all jobs that are referenced by the selected job. You can specify a start date and time or end date and time for the job, and then run scheduling. The time
that you specify can be the start time or the end time, depending on the scheduling direction. This functionality is useful when, for example, a job can be run only on one machine at a time, or when you want to optimize the job that is run for
each resource.
Incorrect:
Not A: The time that workers spend on production jobs is recorded in the Route card journal or the Job card journal. When these journals are posted, ledger posting to a dedicated account for resources that are in progress (WIP) is processed.
This posting represents the value of the time that is spent on the production order. After the production order is registered as ended, the WIP accounts are settled.
Not C: The job card device is used by the shop floor workers to register their daily work, such as when jobs are started, reporting feedback on jobs, registering indirect activities, and reporting absence. These registrations are the basis for
tracking progress and cost on production orders and for calculating the basis for the workers' pay.
Not D: A batch job is a group of tasks that are submitted to an Application Object Server (AOS) instance for automatic processing
A pharmaceutical company is implementing Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
The formulas for medication include a single active ingredient. The active ingredient will be defined with a target level and specified deviation ranges from the target.
You need to set up the active ingredient items.
Which two actions must you perform? Each answer presents a partial solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
A. Configure inventory batch attributes.
B. Enable serial tracking.
C. Enable batch tracking.
D. Configure expiry dates for a batch.
Correct Answer: AC
A: Products that have an active ingredient
A product can be defined by its concentration of an active ingredient. The active ingredient of a product is modeled by using a product-specific batch attribute that has a minimum value, a maximum value, and a target level.
C: To associate a base attribute with a product, the following setup is required:
The product must be batch-controlled. To make a product batch-controlled, you must assign a tracking dimension group to the product that has an active Batch dimension.
The attribute that indicates the ingredient levels must be defined as a product-specific batch attribute for the product.
To look up and edit the actual value of the active ingredient for a batch:
Go to Inventory management > Inquiries and reports > Tracking dimensions > Batches.
Select a batch number from the grid.
On the Action Pane, open the View tab and then select Inventory batch attributes.
A company configures master planning to order large and expensive aluminum sheets that are only available at certain times of the year.
The warehouse manager reports that replenishment levels are too high, causing inventory value to be over budget. In addition, the aluminum sheets take up too much space on the shop floor.
You need to configure the appropriate replenishment method.
Which coverage dimension should you use?
A. Min/Max
B. Per period
C. Per requirement
D. Manual
Correct Answer: B
Period ?The replenishment method combines all the demand for a period into one order for the product. The order will be planned for the first day of the period, and its quantity will fulfill the net requirements during the established period. The period starts with the first demand of the product and covers the defined length of time. The next period will start with the next requirements of the product. The Period coverage code is often used for non-predictable inventory draw, season-influenced products, or high-cost products.
Incorrect:
*
Min./Max. ?The replenishment method is based on the inventory level. It defines the replenishment of inventory up to a specific level when the predicted on-hand level is below a specific threshold. The replenishment quantity will be the
difference between the maximum level and the predicted on-hand level. The Min./Max. coverage code is often used for predictable inventory draw, high runners, or less expensive products.
*
Manual ?In the replenishment method, the system doesn't suggest purchase, transfer, or production orders for the product. Instead, the planner for the product is responsible for creating the required orders for the replenishment of the
product. The Manual coverage code is often used for products that system- generated planned orders aren't wanted for.
*
Requirement ?In the replenishment method, the system creates a planned purchase, transfer, or production order per requirement for the product. This method is used for expensive products that have intermittent demand. The Requirement
coverage code is often used for configurable products or make-to- order scenarios.
A company is implementing Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. The company uses the Landed cost module so that all shipping costs can be tracked within the system.
The company is purchasing reusable shipping receptacles to ship goods from its top vendor in Taiwan to its manufacturing plant in Dublin, Ireland. Each shipping receptacle will be identified and tracked by using a unique number. For
efficiency and cost savings, each container must be loaded to capacity before leaving the dock.
The company must be able to track the containers as a separate expense in the general ledger.
You need to configure the appropriate components.
Which three components must you configure? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
A. Shipping container type
B. Vessel
C. Cost type code
D. Vendor cost type group
E. Load
F. Shipping container
Correct Answer: ABF
Landed cost concepts
The following table summarizes some core concepts of Landed cost.
*
Shipping container type - Shipping container types can determine the price for a cost type (for example, freight). They also provide useful shipping information.
*
Vessel - A vessel is the medium that is used to transport goods, such as a ship or an airplane.
*
Shipping container - Shipping containers store purchase order lines. They are a level below the shipment level. They are typically used if costs are apportioned for goods by container, or if receiving is done per container.
*
Etc. (does not include Cost type code, Vendor cost type group, or Load)
A company produces and distributes seafood to supermarkets. During the manufacturing process, raw seafood is purchased, cleaned, and packaged into various-sized boxes. Each box may have a different weight.
Product is sold by the box and priced by the pound.
You need to ensure that you can perform transactions at the box level and record the net weight of goods shipped to a customer.
Solution: Set up a unit sequence group on the item for both pounds and boxes, then set a standard unit conversion for the product from box to pounds.
