Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management Functional Consultant Expert — Question 101

A company uses Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
A piece of machinery that is critical to a production order breaks down during a production order.
The completed quantities of the production order must be shipped. The remaining quantity on the production order needs to be completed once the machinery is fixed.
Negative inventory is not allowed for the items.
You need to resolve the production issue.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Ship the production quantity that is reported as finished.
• B. Cancel the production order and create a new order for the finished quantity.
• C. Split the current production order into two production orders.
• D. End the current production order and create a new order for the remaining quantity

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because ending the current production order allows for the completed quantities to be shipped while creating a new order ensures that the remaining quantity can be addressed once the machinery is repaired. Option A does not address the need for a new order for the remaining quantities. Options B and C do not effectively handle the restrictions on negative inventory and do not provide a clear path for completion of the unfinished order.
