Exam MB-330 topic 6 question 37 discussion

Actual exam question from Microsoft's MB-330

Question #: 37
Topic #: 6

DRAG DROP
-

A company is implementing Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management for new warehouse management operations.

A three-tier workflow is being implemented for planned order approval. It is anticipated that a few days will need to be added to process the new planned orders.

During the yearly renegotiation of pricing, contractual lead times rather than the actual lead times are used. Vendor score card analysis shows that certain vendors are often late in their shipments from their contractual lead time dates.

Shipping delays to customers are likely for the next three months while the new warehouse operations are adopted.

You need to configure safety margins to account for the new system processes.

Which safety margin should you use for each process? To answer, drag the appropriate safety margins to the correct processes. Each safety margin may be used 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.

There are three types of safety margins: Reorder margin – The buffer time for placing the supply order Receipt margin – The buffer time for handling incoming supply Issue margin – The buffer time for handling shipments The correct answer is: Workflow approval process -> Reorder margin New warehouse processes -> Issue margin Actual average vendor delays -> Receipt margin https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/supply-chain/master-planning/planning-optimization/safety-margins#set-up-safety-margins

Actual average vendor delays -> Receipt margin Why its not a lead time?? It's confusing for me.

[1] The Reorder margin is "the buffer time for placing the supply order," which applies to delays in the internal process of issuing or approving orders. [2] The Receipt margin is "the buffer time for handling incoming supply," making it the right choice to account for delays in making inventory available after it arrives at the warehouse. [3] The Receipt margin is "the buffer time for handling incoming supply" and is used to account for delays in receiving goods from vendors.. Why not Lead time? Not a safety margin; adjusting lead time directly would override contractual values, which isn’t the goal here

I agree the first is Reorder, but the last is Receipt. My confusion lies in the "new warehouse processes" There is no clarification as to whether this is adding time on the receipt end or the issue end, so it could be either? Unless I'm missing something.

Based on this "Shipping delays to customers are likely for the next three months while the new warehouse operations are adopted" I think we are meant to assume that it is the outbound process so the answer should be "Issue".

I think it should be: 1: Reorder margin 2: Issue margin 3: Receipt Margin
