Background - Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm is a distribution company that supplies pickles, preserves, pickling supplies, and accessory products to local farmers’ markets as well as grocers. Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm does not produce or provide canning services for any items. Current Environment - Munson's Pickles and Preserves Farm has an accounting system that is disconnected from the warehousing system. This has caused issues with controlling and valuing inventory. With these core drivers, Munson's Pickles and Preserves Farm decides to implement Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. Warehousing - • Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm has a single warehouse that serves as the distribution center for all products. • The warehouse has bulk locations as well as racking, but location names and numbers do not exist. • Bulk locations are for storage of extra inventory that will not fit into the picking locations. • The warehouse is temperature-controlled, with locations grouped into two zones: refrigerated and non-perishable. • Inventory adjustments are made regularly due to lack of inventory controls. Inventory Data - • Item numbers are inconsistent and were set up as “smart-numbering,” such as 1-23-PKL and 44-24-PICK. • Cucumbers are not grown by Munson's Pickles and Preserves Farm and may be sourced from local farmers. • Pickles come in bottle sizes of 8 oz, 16 oz, 32 oz. The bottles are packed in cases. • Pickles may be spear, chip, or whole shapes within the bottles. This does not impact the cost of the pickles when they are the same flavor. • Pickle flavors are sweet, spicy, and dill. The flavors vary in price. • Preserves come in multiple flavors, such as mango, strawberry, and grape. These are seasonal items only. Due to the varying flavors and quantities, the preserves are owned by the vendor until they are sold. The mango preserves require refrigeration. The other preserves do not require refrigeration. • Many items are sold as accessories or supplies for pickling. • Some items within inventory have an expiration date, such as vinegar. • Fast-moving items are identified by inventory turns per quarter. Sweet and spicy pickles are the most popular. Purchasing and Sales - • Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm has an online store that can be found at munsonspicklesandpreservesfarm.com. • The online store is limited to a subset of products that are accessories only, such as bottles and jars. • A new product line of kosher pickles is going to be distributed by Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm. • VendorA is the largest vendor that Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm buys products from. Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm’s second largest vendor is VendorB. Requirements - Warehousing - • The warehouse manager requires fast-moving items to be easily accessible to the order pickers in AisleA, with no more than one item per bin location in AisleA. Both sweet and spicy pickles have more inventory than will fit in AisleA, resulting in bulk location storage. o Spicy pickles must have no less than half of a pallet in AisleA at any time. o Sweet pickles must have enough inventory in AisleA prior to creating waves for warehouse work. • Strawberry preserves are selling slowly this season. They are put away in higher bin locations because they are not considered fast-moving items Inventory & Data - • Item numbers must be set up to create a streamlined numbering system. Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm requires that the old item number be stored in Dynamics 365 for cross reference purposes. Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm has settled on 0000001 as the item format for pickles instead of 1-23-PKL. PKL will be stored as an attribute. • Item numbers for pickles must be consolidated where possible into a single item number, regardless of bottle size. • Cucumbers must be sold at actual cost because they are a special order. • Kosher pickles must be set up in the item master. The kosher pickles are the same size jars and flavors as the other pickles, except that they have a kosher designation and will be slightly more expensive. • Vinegar and other perishable items must have date tracking for the manufacturer's batch number and expiration date of the product. • A batch of mango preserves had to be thrown away because the warehouse workers put away the product into the non-perishable zone. Purchasing & Sales - • Cucumbers must be sourced from local vendors for special orders only. • Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm recently signed an exclusivity agreement with VendorA, and buyers must now only purchase from VendorA. • VendorA recently purchased a competitor company, VendorB. VendorA wants to ensure that all agreements with VendorA also apply to VendorB while they work on merging the two companies into one. • VendorC sells preserves to Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm and requires the following: o Shipment requirement: VendorC owns the product after shipment to Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm until the time of sale. o On-hand requirement: VendorC has access to view on-hand preserve inventory at Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm warehouse. Issues - • CustomerD reports that the vinegar they ordered had a week left before it expired when they received it. This did not give CustomerD enough time to use the vinegar before they had to dispose of it. CustomerD now requires that all vinegar has more than 30 days left before the expiration date. • A customer calls and states that they ordered kosher pickles and received regular pickles. Inventory Control Clerk 2 reports that kosher and non-kosher pickles of the same variety are in the same warehouse location, contributing to the picking errors. • A salesperson reports that the margin is incorrect on a customer’s special order because the cucumber cost was for the most recent receipt of cucumbers, not the cucumbers received for the specific customer order. • An internal audit revealed that large quantities of pickles were missing and written off as damaged on multiple occasions cover the past year. No documentation or explanation of the write offs exist. There is no documentation of disposal, and no approval from management to substantiate that the pickles were not stolen. • Jars of pickles are received as eaches. Case counts of pickle jars vary by size: o 8 oz jars are 12 per case o 16 oz jars are 6 per case o The varied counts in each case create overhead in the warehouse. • The receiving clerk in the warehouse wants to ensure that broken bottles of vinegar are moved to a damage location named LocationA. Expired vinegar should be moved to a return-to-vendor location named LocationB. All other vinegar should be put away and sold according to normal location directives. • Operator1 is picking a pallet of strawberry preserves from a location to the shipping dock. While picking up the pallet, Operator1 drops the pallet. Operator1 must make sure that the strawberry preserves are not available for shipment until the damage is evaluated. • Operator2 tries to print wave labels that contain item 0000001. The labels start to print and then jam. At the same time, the printer battery needs to be recharged and the labels need to be reprinted. You need to configure the requirements for VendorC. What should you configure? To answer, move the appropriate features to the correct requirement types. You may use each feature 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.

Background - Coho Vineyard & Winery is a parent company that has two subsidiaries: Coho Vineyard and Coho Winery. Coho Vineyard is based in Medford, Oregon. The vineyard grows the grapes and then produces and bottles the wine. Coho Winery, based in Grants Pass, Oregon, distributes packaged wine to businesses and consumers. The winery sells imported cheese and olive oil in addition to the wines. Current environment. Technology landscape • Coho Vineyard & Winery requires financial reporting from both Coho Vineyard and Coho Winery. The parent company consolidates financials in a third-party tool. • Coho Winery currently manages inventory and financials on spreadsheets separately from the parent company. Current environment. Inventory and warehousing • The entire warehouse is temperature controlled. A refrigerated section of the warehouse is used for items that require colder storage. • The items do not have fixed locations in the warehouse. • Coho uses smart numbering for cheese items today. The items start with F for France and U for United States such as the following: • F11234 = French cheese • U14567 = US cheese • Currently, wine does not use smart numbering. • Inventory is valued at First In, First-Out (FIFO). • Olive oil has a 12-month shelf life. • WineA is expensive and not regularly stocked in the warehouse. • WineB must be in the refrigerated section of the warehouse. • WineC is non-refrigerated wine and is the majority of inventory in the warehouse. Current environment. Vendors and procurement • Cheese is purchased from vendors in two countries: France and United States. • Non-cheese items can be purchased from vendors in other countries or regions. • Olive oil is bought and sold in full cases of six each. • When Coho Vineyard produces more wine than expected in a season, rebate programs are offered to any company whose monthly purchases exceed $5,000. Requirements. General - • The Coho Vineyard & Winery parent company, as well as Coho Vineyard, will not be considered in the implementation of Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management for Coho Winery. They plan to implement them as separate legal entities in the next five years. Requirements. Inventory and warehousing • Items must be renumbered in the new system. • Separate item numbers must be used for each imported item for use in simplified reporting by source country or region. • Advanced Warehouse Management capabilities must be enabled in the new system. • Each bottle of wine has a single item number. • The vintage of each bottle will change annually and may affect the cost of the bottle. This cost must be tracked by year. • Some bottles of wine require refrigeration. The system must automatically define where items must be stored in the warehouse. • Wine must be grouped in a hierarchy such as the following: • Red • Cabernet • Merlot • White • Chardonnay • Pinot • Inventory value must be stored at each month end. • Each month, the olive oil on-hand inventory is evaluated. Anything with less than six months left on the shelf life is sold to a discount retail store. If less than 90 days remains for the shelf life, then the olive oil is donated or destroyed. • At least 20 cases of olive oil and no more than 50 cases are on hand and not reserved for upcoming customer orders. • WineB must be refrigerated. Requirements. Vendors and procurement • The cheese smart numbering system will not be used in the future. Instead, the system must use standard configurations to ensure the correct cheese items are used for the correct country or region when ordering. • Olive oil must be managed in full cases only, although the inventory cost must be calculated as cages. • Should any bottle of olive oil be broken within a case, the cases will be sold at a discounted price. • Vendor rebates must be calculated and submitted for a claim. • Rebate programs are passed on to the retailers selling Coho Winery wines. The rebates must be claimed from Coho Vineyard. • Purchase orders (POs) must be maintained online with tracked changes between the vendors and the buyers. • The controller decides WineA must not be held in financial inventory on the Coho Winery books. The winery makes an agreement with the vendor that WineA will be owned by the vendor until a later date. • Vendor1 sends bulk shipments. Coho Winery does not always have enough warehouse staff to receive inventory. The company requires Vendor1 to send advanced shipping notices (ASNs). • The operations coordinator must schedule inbound loads. The company requires automation of inbound load creation where possible. Issues - • The warehouse is at maximum capacity. Empty bin locations are not always available. • The warehouse manager wants to establish fast moving locations for WineB on the floor and refill locations from higher rack storage. • Coho Winery recently conducted an internal audit risk assessment. The risk assessment found that inventory value reports were stored in spreadsheets. The spreadsheets can easily be edited and lack controls. • After olive oil is counted, multiple cases are destroyed due to shelf life. The inventory planner must determine if a new PO should be placed for olive oil. • The vendor rebates claims are often rejected because the claims were miscalculated by not including discounts. • The purchasing manager receives multiple complaints regarding POs: • Issue 1: PO changes are not accepted and confirmed, resulting in out-of-stock issues. • Issue 2: Vendors do not have control on responses to POs. Instead, the vendors rely on emails. You need to configure the requirements for the operations coordinator and the inbound load for Vendor1. What should you configure for each requirement? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

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. 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?

Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm’s second largest vendor is VendorB. Requirements - Warehousing - • The warehouse manager requires fast-moving items to be easily accessible to the order pickers in AisleA, with no more than one item per bin location in AisleA. Both sweet and spicy pickles have more inventory than will fit in AisleA, resulting in bulk location storage. o Spicy pickles must have no less than half of a pallet in AisleA at any time. o Sweet pickles must have enough inventory in AisleA prior to creating waves for warehouse work. • Strawberry preserves are selling slowly this season. They are put away in higher bin locations because they are not considered fast-moving items Inventory & Data - • Item numbers must be set up to create a streamlined numbering system. Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm requires that the old item number be stored in Dynamics 365 for cross reference purposes. Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm has settled on 0000001 as the item format for pickles instead of 1-23-PKL. PKL will be stored as an attribute. • Item numbers for pickles must be consolidated where possible into a single item number, regardless of bottle size. • Cucumbers must be sold at actual cost because they are a special order. • Kosher pickles must be set up in the item master. The kosher pickles are the same size jars and flavors as the other pickles, except that they have a kosher designation and will be slightly more expensive. • Vinegar and other perishable items must have date tracking for the manufacturer's batch number and expiration date of the product. • A batch of mango preserves had to be thrown away because the warehouse workers put away the product into the non-perishable zone. Purchasing & Sales - • Cucumbers must be sourced from local vendors for special orders only. • Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm recently signed an exclusivity agreement with VendorA, and buyers must now only purchase from VendorA. • VendorA recently purchased a competitor company, VendorB. VendorA wants to ensure that all agreements with VendorA also apply to VendorB while they work on merging the two companies into one. • VendorC sells preserves to Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm and requires the following: o Shipment requirement: VendorC owns the product after shipment to Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm until the time of sale. o On-hand requirement: VendorC has access to view on-hand preserve inventory at Munson’s Pickles and Preserves Farm warehouse. Issues - • CustomerD reports that the vinegar they ordered had a week left before it expired when they received it. This did not give CustomerD enough time to use the vinegar before they had to dispose of it. CustomerD now requires that all vinegar has more than 30 days left before the expiration date. • A customer calls and states that they ordered kosher pickles and received regular pickles. Inventory Control Clerk 2 reports that kosher and non-kosher pickles of the same variety are in the same warehouse location, contributing to the picking errors. • A salesperson reports that the margin is incorrect on a customer’s special order because the cucumber cost was for the most recent receipt of cucumbers, not the cucumbers received for the specific customer order. • An internal audit revealed that large quantities of pickles were missing and written off as damaged on multiple occasions cover the past year. No documentation or explanation of the write offs exist. There is no documentation of disposal, and no approval from management to substantiate that the pickles were not stolen. • Jars of pickles are received as cases. Case counts of pickle jars vary by size: o 8 oz jars are 12 per case o 16 oz jars are 6 per case o The varied counts in each case create overhead in the warehouse. • The receiving clerk in the warehouse wants to ensure that broken bottles of vinegar are moved to a damage location named LocationA. Expired vinegar should be moved to a return-to-vendor location named LocationB. All other vinegar should be put away and sold according to normal location directives. • Operator1 is picking a pallet of strawberry preserves from a location to the shipping dock. While picking up the pallet, Operator1 drops the pallet. Operator] must make sure that the strawberry preserves are not available for shipment until the damage is evaluated. • Operator2 tries to print wave labels that contain item 0000001. The labels start to print and then jam. At the same time, the printer battery needs to be recharged and the labels need to be reprinted. You need to configure the replenishment method for AisleA. What should you configure? To answer, move the appropriate replenishment strategies to the correct items. You may use each replenishment strategy once, more than once, or not at all.

Background - Coho Vineyard & Winery is a parent company that has two subsidiaries: Coho Vineyard and Coho Winery. Coho Vineyard is based in Medford, Oregon. The vineyard grows the grapes and then produces and bottles the wine. Coho Winery, based in Grants Pass, Oregon, distributes packaged wine to businesses and consumers. The winery sells imported cheese and olive oil in addition to the wines. Current environment. Technology landscape • Coho Vineyard & Winery requires financial reporting from both Coho Vineyard and Coho Winery. The parent company consolidates financials in a third-party tool. • Coho Winery currently manages inventory and financials on spreadsheets separately from the parent company. Current environment. Inventory and warehousing • The entire warehouse is temperature controlled. A refrigerated section of the warehouse is used for items that require colder storage. • The items do not have fixed locations in the warehouse. • Coho uses smart numbering for cheese items today. The items start with F for France and U for United States such as the following: • F11234 = French cheese • U14567 = US cheese • Currently, wine does not use smart numbering. • Inventory is valued at First In, First-Out (FIFO). • Olive oil has a 12-month shelf life. • WineA is expensive and not regularly stocked in the warehouse. • WineB must be in the refrigerated section of the warehouse. • WineC is non-refrigerated wine and is the majority of inventory in the warehouse. Current environment. Vendors and procurement • Cheese is purchased from vendors in two countries: France and United States. • Non-cheese items can be purchased from vendors in other countries or regions. • Olive oil is bought and sold in full cases of six each. • When Coho Vineyard produces more wine than expected in a season, rebate programs are offered to any company whose monthly purchases exceed $5,000. Requirements. General - • The Coho Vineyard & Winery parent company, as well as Coho Vineyard, will not be considered in the implementation of Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management for Coho Winery. They plan to implement them as separate legal entities in the next five years. Requirements. Inventory and warehousing • Items must be renumbered in the new system. • Separate item numbers must be used for each imported item for use in simplified reporting by source country or region. • Advanced Warehouse Management capabilities must be enabled in the new system. • Each bottle of wine has a single item number. • The vintage of each bottle will change annually and may affect the cost of the bottle. This cost must be tracked by year. • Some bottles of wine require refrigeration. The system must automatically define where items must be stored in the warehouse. • Wine must be grouped in a hierarchy such as the following: • Red • Cabernet • Merlot • White • Chardonnay • Pinot • Inventory value must be stored at each month end. • Each month, the olive oil on-hand inventory is evaluated. Anything with less than six months left on the shelf life is sold to a discount retail store. If less than 90 days remains for the shelf life, then the olive oil is donated or destroyed. • At least 20 cases of olive oil and no more than 50 cases are on hand and not reserved for upcoming customer orders. • WineB must be refrigerated. Requirements. Vendors and procurement • The cheese smart numbering system will not be used in the future. Instead, the system must use standard configurations to ensure the correct cheese items are used for the correct country or region when ordering. • Olive oil must be managed in full cases only, although the inventory cost must be calculated as cages. • Should any bottle of olive oil be broken within a case, the cases will be sold at a discounted price. • Vendor rebates must be calculated and submitted for a claim. • Rebate programs are passed on to the retailers selling Coho Winery wines. The rebates must be claimed from Coho Vineyard. • Purchase orders (POs) must be maintained online with tracked changes between the vendors and the buyers. • The controller decides WineA must not be held in financial inventory on the Coho Winery books. The winery makes an agreement with the vendor that WineA will be owned by the vendor until a later date. • Vendor1 sends bulk shipments. Coho Winery does not always have enough warehouse staff to receive inventory. The company requires Vendor1 to send advanced shipping notices (ASNs). • The operations coordinator must schedule inbound loads. The company requires automation of inbound load creation where possible. Issues - • The warehouse is at maximum capacity. Empty bin locations are not always available. • The warehouse manager wants to establish fast moving locations for WineB on the floor and refill locations from higher rack storage. • Coho Winery recently conducted an internal audit risk assessment. The risk assessment found that inventory value reports were stored in spreadsheets. The spreadsheets can easily be edited and lack controls. • After olive oil is counted, multiple cases are destroyed due to shelf life. The inventory planner must determine if a new PO should be placed for olive oil. • The vendor rebates claims are often rejected because the claims were miscalculated by not including discounts. • The purchasing manager receives multiple complaints regarding POs: • Issue 1: PO changes are not accepted and confirmed, resulting in out-of-stock issues. • Issue 2: Vendors do not have control on responses to POs. Instead, the vendors rely on emails. You need to resolve the risk issue identified from the internal audit. What should you configure?
